Southern Magnesium & Chemicals Faces Intense Selling Pressure Amid Consecutive Losses

Southern Magnesium & Chemicals Ltd is currently facing significant selling pressure, with the stock showing only sellers today. The company has experienced consecutive losses over the past three days, with a total decline of 5.86% during this period. Today, the stock opened with a loss of 2%, reaching an intraday low of Rs 142.1, and has since traded at this price without any notable range.
In terms of performance, Southern Magnesium & Chemicals has underperformed the broader market, with a 1-day decline of 2.00% compared to the Sensex's gain of 0.60%. Over the past week, the stock has dropped 3.99%, while the Sensex has risen by 0.95%. The longer-term outlook is similarly bleak, with the stock down 9.38% over the past month and a staggering 50.50% over the past year, contrasting sharply with the Sensex's 9.62% increase during the same timeframe.
