PME stock’s recent Movement
Since the company announced its financials on November 16, the stock has been more or less bullish. On the whole, the stock reached a value of $0.92 at close on November 24, against its November 16th opening value of $0.69. While this gain in itself was a good reason, the PME’s gain of 12.20% on November 24 alone was enough for profit bookers. Hence, the stock now is in a downfall due to market corrections.
