On June 2, Bracell (01768.HK) fell 3.33% in regular trading, trading at 343.0 HKD/share, with trading volume of approximately 10.62 million HKD. The stock retreated after rallying sharply in the previous session.

On the news front, short-selling pressure on the stock remains significantly elevated. Data shows that on June 1, Bracell's short-selling ratio reached 40.06%, ranking first in the food and beverage industry, with the short ratio deviation reaching 229.72%, indicating concentrated bearish positioning. The stock had surged over 8% on June 1, driven by a share buyback authorization of up to 10% of issued H-shares and easing competition concerns after rival Wanchen Group halted a 126-million-yuan direct store project. However, the rebound appears to have attracted profit-taking and renewed short-selling activity. Additionally, the company's valuation remains elevated at approximately 30x forward P/E, significantly above the industry average of 15-20x, continuing to weigh on sentiment.
