Xining Special Steel Hits Day High with Strong 5.3% Intraday Surge

Xining Special Steel Co., Ltd., a mid-cap player in the ferrous metals industry, has shown significant activity today, gaining 5.3% on February 25, 2026. The stock reached an intraday high of CNY 3.04, marking a notable performance against the backdrop of a -1.26% decline in the China Shanghai Composite index. Over the past week, Xining Special Steel has outperformed the broader market with a 7.97% increase, while its one-year performance stands at an impressive 36.7%, significantly surpassing the 22.49% return of the Shanghai Composite. However, the company has faced challenges in the longer term, with a three-year decline of 6.29% and a five-year drop of 14.12%. Despite the recent uptick, the company grapples with low profitability metrics, including a Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) of just 1.20% and a high debt-to-equity ratio. These factors contribute to a complex financial landscape, as the company navigates a history of declining net sales and operating profits. As Xining Special Steel continues to evolve, its recent performance highlights the dynamic nature of the market.
