Why is RDB Real Estate falling/rising?

As of 24-Sep, RDB Real Estate Construction Ltd is experiencing a price increase, currently at 223.95, reflecting a rise of 4.35 or 1.98%. The stock has shown strong performance recently, gaining 10.89% over the last six days and outperforming its sector by 4.4% today. However, despite this short-term gain, the stock has faced significant challenges, including a poor long-term growth outlook, with operating profit declining at an annual rate of -34.78% over the past five years. The company has also reported negative results for the last two consecutive quarters, with a notable drop in both profit after tax and net sales compared to previous averages, indicating underlying financial weaknesses.
In the broader market context, RDB Real Estate's short-term return of +10.35% over the past week contrasts sharply with the Sensex, which has declined by -1.18% during the same period. This suggests that while the stock is gaining traction in the short term, it is still facing headwinds from its high debt levels and weak long-term fundamentals, as evidenced by a debt-to-equity ratio of 2.71 and a return on equity of only 7.09%. The overall construction and real estate sector has also seen a decline of -2.44%, further complicating the stock's outlook despite its recent gains.
