Ximei Resources to Cut Board Lot Size to 500 Shares, Stock Jumps 6%
Ximei Resources (09936.HK) announced it will change the board lot size for its shares from 2,500 to 500, a move that sent its stock price up more than 6 percent.
The change, announced by the company in a filing to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, will be effective from May 5.
The reduction in the minimum number of shares required for a transaction lowers the capital needed for an investment, a common strategy to make a stock more accessible to retail investors and increase trading volume. The stock rose 6.428 percent after the announcement.
This move is intended to enhance the stock's liquidity and broaden Ximei's shareholder base. Investors will watch trading volumes after May 5 to see if the intended effect on liquidity materializes.
