CMOC's stock price plummeted 5.31% during intraday trading on Tuesday, marking a significant decline for the diversified metals and mining company.

The sharp drop comes as short-term profit-taking pressure intensified following a rapid surge in the stock's price. The company's A-shares had recently triggered an abnormal trading alert after their cumulative closing price deviation exceeded 20% over three consecutive trading days, signaling overheated trading conditions.

Additionally, the broader Diversified Metals & Mining sector faced substantial pressure during the session, creating a drag effect that further weighed on CMOC's performance as investors reduced exposure to the sector.
