The company has also consistently reported positive results over the last four quarters, contributing to a high dividend yield of 3.52%, which may attract some investors despite the recent price decline.

In the broader market context, Union Bank's recent performance contrasts with the benchmark Sensex, which has only decreased by 1.03% over the past week. This indicates that while the bank's stock is facing significant short-term challenges, the overall market is experiencing a milder downturn.

However, the recent price movements reflect a combination of short-term volatility and market sentiment, which may not fully align with the bank's underlying financial strength.
