On November 5, CHINA COAL fell 3.4% in regular trading, trading at HK$9.585, with turnover of HK$30.928 million.

The move came as the market continued to digest weaker-than-expected third-quarter earnings, while softer coal prices and renewed supply recovery expectations weighed on coal names broadly. Previously disclosed results showed CHINA COAL posted net profit attributable to shareholders of RMB12.749 billion for the first nine months, up 2.1%, while third-quarter profit was about RMB4.6 billion, down 4% year over year and below expectations, mainly due to higher coal unit costs, selling and administrative expenses, and finance costs. At the sector level, coal stocks were also under pressure as port thermal coal prices softened and Shanxi mine resumptions continued to ease prior supply-tightness concerns.
