Why is Crest Ventures falling/rising?

As of 02-Sep, Crest Ventures Ltd is currently priced at 379.45, reflecting a slight increase of 0.3 (0.08%). The stock has shown a positive performance recently, gaining 5.4% over the last two days, although it has underperformed its sector by 0.97% today. In the past week and month, the stock has outperformed the Sensex, with returns of +3.56% and +3.72%, respectively. However, it has faced significant challenges over the longer term, with a year-to-date decline of -10.82% and a one-year drop of -15.30%. The company's operating profit has grown at a healthy annual rate of 34.54%, but negative results in the latest six months, including a -45.71% decline in PAT, have raised concerns about its profitability and valuation, which is considered expensive with a Price to Book Value of 0.9.
Broader Market Context: The stock's recent performance contrasts with the broader market, as the Sensex has shown a decline of -0.78% over the past week and -0.55% over the past month. Despite the overall market's negative returns, Crest Ventures has managed to gain in the short term, indicating some investor interest. However, the stock's long-term underperformance, particularly its -15.30% return over the past year compared to the BSE500's -4.82%, suggests that investor sentiment remains cautious. The lack of domestic mutual fund investment, which holds only 0% of the company, further indicates a lack of confidence in the stock's future prospects, contributing to its volatility in price movements.
