CMI Faces Significant Stock Volatility Amid Declining Sales and Trading Patterns

CMI, a microcap company in the electrical cables industry, has experienced significant volatility in its stock performance. Today, the stock is trading close to its 52-week low, just 3.27% above the low of Rs 3.25 reached on July 21, 2025. The stock's performance has been in line with its sector, but it has shown erratic trading patterns, having not traded on four out of the last 20 days.
Currently, CMI is trading below its moving averages across all time frames, including the 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day averages. Over the past year, CMI has reported a substantial decline of 33.19%, contrasting sharply with the Sensex, which has gained 1.86% during the same period.

Financially, CMI has faced challenges, with net sales for the first nine months at Rs 11.87 crore, reflecting a staggering decline of 80.12%. Additionally, the company has not declared results in the last six months, raising concerns about its long-term fundamental strength. This consistent underperformance against the benchmark has made CMI a stock of interest in the current market landscape.
