Dongfang Electric's stock plummeted 5.02% intraday on Friday, as the shares retreated sharply following a recent strong rally.

The pullback is attributed to the stock touching the upper bound of its relative valuation range, prompting profit-taking from investors. Additionally, the company's disclosure of a senior executive share reduction plan earlier this month has continued to weigh on short-term market sentiment.

This decline comes despite the company reporting robust fundamental performance, including a 31.11% rise in full-year net profit and significant growth in new orders. The stock had previously surged on positive analyst actions, including a raised target price from Citi, which cited strong demand for domestic nuclear and hydropower equipment and high potential for overseas gas turbine sales.
