From the price chart above, it is very clear that the stock went down with volumes post 3 pm and the stock just failed to recover thereafter. The fundamentals of the stock are weak and it was recommended by this website to avoid the issue on terms of fundamentals and corporate governance issues. The fact that the issue was expensive and did not warrant subscription was also highlighted in the article. Even though the issue has listed and is now available at the lower end of the price band, it continues to be expensive and even punting in the share is likely to be dangerous to your portfolio. Avoid any investment, as there is more downside yet to come.
