Why Microvast Stock (MVST) Is Nosediving

Microvast Holdings Inc MVST shares are trading lower by 9.2% to $1.78 Tuesday afternoon. The stock is trading lower on heavy volume following a Form 4 filing that showed Director Yanzhuan Zheng sold 313,009 shares at an average price of $2.02 per share.

Why It Matters

When insiders, such as company executives or major shareholders, sell a large number of shares, it can be seen as a lack of confidence in the company's future prospects.

Insider selling can also signal that the stock is overvalued. If insiders believe that the stock price has risen to a level that is not justified by the company's fundamentals, they may decide to take profits by selling their shares.

According to data from Benzinga Pro, MVST has a 52-week high of $2.91 and a 52-week low of $0.88.
