Today, E-Home Household Service (NASDAQ:EJH) is bleeding red. In fact, at the time of writing, EJH stock is down more than 60% today alone. Compared to the company’s 52-week high, this is a stock that’s lost approximately 90% of its value.
Currently, more than 31 million shares have traded hands. This compares to an average daily volume of approximately 200,000 shares. Any sort of massive move like this on heavy volume usually indicates something is awry with this stock.
However, EJH stock is one that’s moved wildly since its initial public offering (IPO). On the company’s first day of public trading, EJH stock shot 1,100% higher and traded as high as $80.93 on its second day of trading. Since then, the company has come down to earth, trading closer to its IPO price of $4.50 per share today than it has before.
This kind of volatility is unusual, particularly on a lack of news. However, the recent accelerating crackdown Chinese regulators have imposed on Chinese companies is likely a key driver of today’s mass exodus from this stock.
