Why is JP Power Ven. falling/rising?

As of 06-Aug, Jaiprakash Power Ventures Ltd's stock price is currently at 19.09, reflecting a decrease of 0.19, or 0.99%. The stock has been underperforming recently, having fallen for six consecutive days, resulting in a total decline of 11.17%. In terms of returns, the stock has decreased by 10.96% over the past week, while it has shown a modest increase of 0.74% over the past month. Despite the recent downturn, the company has demonstrated healthy long-term growth, with an annual operating profit growth rate of 20.50%. However, the stock's profits have significantly declined by 51.3% over the past year, which may be contributing to the current negative sentiment among investors.
In the broader market context, the stock's short-term performance has been notably worse than the benchmark, with the Sensex only declining by 1.15% over the same week. While Jaiprakash Power Ventures has outperformed the BSE500 over the longer term, the recent price movement indicates a struggle in the short term, compounded by falling investor participation, as evidenced by a 30.76% drop in delivery volume compared to the five-day average. The stock is currently trading at a discount relative to its peers, which suggests potential value, but the ongoing decline in investor interest and recent profit reductions may overshadow these positive factors in the short term.
