Why is SML ISUZU falling/rising?

As of 25-Jul, SML ISUZU Ltd's stock price is currently at Rs 3,820.80, reflecting a decline of Rs 173.9 or 4.35%. The stock has been underperforming recently, having fallen consecutively for the last two days, resulting in a total drop of 5.38% during this period. Despite this short-term decline, the stock has shown impressive long-term performance, with a year-to-date increase of 171.63% and a three-year return of 427.01%. Positive factors contributing to the stock's overall strength include a healthy annual growth rate in net sales of 28.56% and operating profit growth of 32.21%. Additionally, institutional investors have increased their stake in the company, indicating confidence in its fundamentals.
In the broader market context, SML ISUZU's recent performance contrasts with the benchmark, as the Sensex has experienced a slight decline of 0.36% over the past week. While SML ISUZU has outperformed the benchmark significantly in the long term, its recent underperformance of 0.87% against its sector suggests that sector-wide challenges, particularly in the auto-trucks segment, which has fallen by 3.46%, may be impacting investor sentiment. The stock's liquidity remains adequate, with a delivery volume increase of 41.28% compared to the five-day average, suggesting that while the stock is facing short-term pressures, there is still active interest from investors.
