Additionally, the stock is trading below its 5-day, 20-day, 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, which suggests a bearish trend. Despite a strong long-term fundamental strength indicated by an average Return on Equity (ROE) of 13.30%, the recent performance has been negatively impacted by a substantial drop in investor participation, with delivery volume falling by 87.46% against the 5-day average.
