China East Education Holdings' stock plummeted 8.84% during intraday trading on Monday, following a significant downward revision of its price target by analysts at Jefferies.
The education services provider saw heavy selling pressure after Jefferies cut its price target for the company to HK$5.60 from HK$8.80, representing a substantial 36% reduction. While maintaining a Hold rating on the stock, the dramatic price target adjustment signaled reduced confidence in the company's near-term valuation prospects among analysts.
