On September 2, CHIFENG GOLD fell 3.58% in regular trading, trading at 38.44 HKD/share, with turnover of 30.80 million HKD. The decline reflects a convergence of company-specific and sector-level headwinds.

On the earnings front, the company recently disclosed its interim results showing H1 revenue of 7.018 billion yuan (+33.11% YoY) and attributable net profit of 1.732 billion yuan (+56.5% YoY). However, Q2 standalone net profit of 744 million yuan fell approximately 24% sequentially from Q1's 988 million yuan, raising concerns over near-term earnings momentum.

At the shareholder level, Zhaojin Mining (via Spyco International) sold 7.5 million shares at an average price of 41.72 HKD on August 25, reducing its long position from 6.05% to 2.88%, following an earlier disposal of 2.2 million shares at 44.39 HKD on August 21. The consecutive reduction has weighed on short-term market sentiment.

Meanwhile, the broader gold sector declined amid rising rate hike expectations after the Fed Chair signaled a hawkish stance at the Jackson Hole symposium. Within the sector, LINGBAO GOLD fell 4.81%, SD GOLD fell 4.12%, ZHAOJIN MINING fell 4.16%, ZIJIN GOLD INTL fell 3.57%, and CHINAGOLDINTL fell 3.45%.
