Manycore Tech (00068.HK) shares surged 54.52% to close at HKD 28.74 on Monday, extending a post-IPO rally to roughly 277% above its listing price.
The stock, which began trading on Friday, April 17, at an offer price of HKD 7.62, reached an intraday high of HKD 28.98 on its second day of trading. Turnover on Monday reached HKD 1.354 billion on volume of 54.54 million shares, according to Hong Kong Stock Exchange data.
The dramatic price increase establishes a high valuation for the new technology listing, attracting significant speculative interest from retail and institutional investors. The stock's performance in the coming weeks will be a key test of demand for new tech IPOs in the Hong Kong market.
The sustained rally gives the company a market capitalization far exceeding initial expectations, though data on oversubscription rates and cornerstone investors was not disclosed. Investors will be watching to see if the valuation holds as the post-IPO lockup period for early investors approaches.
