On August 18, GANFENGLITHIUM fell 3.04% in regular trading, trading at 38.78 HKD/share, with turnover of HKD 217 million.

On the news front, HKEX disclosure data showed that BlackRock reduced its long position in GANFENGLITHIUM H-shares from 8.20% to 7.56% on August 10, marking its second reduction in recent weeks. Notably, BlackRock has traded the stock frequently over the past month — cutting its stake from 8.16% to 6.75% in late July, then aggressively raising it to 8.76% in early August, before pulling back again. The volatile positioning reflects growing institutional divergence on the lithium sector leader's outlook.

The broader lithium mining sector was under pressure on the same day, with peer TIANQI LITHIUM down 3.1% and DONGYUE GROUP down 3.07%, indicating clear sector-wide linkage effects. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs had previously downgraded GANFENGLITHIUM H-shares to Sell, citing expectations that lithium carbonate prices would peak in the first half and decline thereafter.
