Every price drop is a good chance to buy in, this only apply for up trend stocks and 顺周期procyclical up trend stocks. Share price volatility, but share price will increase against longer time frame. Why is HY share price so volatile? As you can see from analysis of shareholdings (annual report as at 15/4/2020), HY company itself already holding 51%, another 17% hold by top 30 shareholders. Some of this top 30 shareholders remain unchanged since 2016. Some increase their holding percentage along the years. Total number of HY ordinary shares are 300,000,000. Out of 68% (204 million of ordinary shares) already hold by top 30 shareholders, and only balance of 32% or 96 millions ordinary shares contributing daily trading volumes. I strongly believe, out of this 32% ordinary shares, majority are mid to long term investors. So the price movement & selling pressure mainly due to the day traders. Happy investing :)
Oil drops more than 7% in worst day since September

Oil prices sunk for a fifth day running on Thursday on a stronger dollar, a further increase in U.S. crude and fuel inventories and the weight of the ever-present COVID-19 pandemic.
Brent crude slid 6.94% to settle at $63.28 per barrel. U.S. oil settled 7.12%, or $4.60, lower at $60 per barrel, after shedding 0.3% in the previous session. Both contracts are down 6% over the past five days.
“Short-term developments - stuttering vaccine rollouts and the build in U.S. oil inventories - are driving sentiment, but the longer-term oil outlook is still encouraging,” said PVM Oil Associates analyst Tamas Varga.
“Yesterday’s U.S. Federal Reserve meeting provided a boost to equities ... U.S. economic growth has been revised upwards while unemployment is expected to decline.”
A sharp rise in the value of the dollar after the Fed meeting has also driven the oil sell-off.
Government data on Wednesday showed U.S. crude inventories have risen for four straight weeks after severe cold weather forced shutdowns at refineries in the south. An industry report estimating a decline had raised hopes of a halt to the gains.
U.S. crude inventories rose by 2.4 million barrels last week, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said on Wednesday, a day after the American Petroleum Institute (API) estimated there had been a 1 million barrel decline.
Varga added the market would be waiting for U.S. manufacturing data next week for further indications on the health of the world’s largest economy.
“Lower crude demand from Asian buyers as a result of upcoming refinery maintenance and probably higher prices is also something not helping crude at the moment,” said UBS commodity analyst Giovanni Staunovo.
A slowdown in some vaccination programmes and the prospect of more restrictions to control the coronavirus have tempered expectations for a recovery in fuel use.
Britain said on Thursday that global supply bumps meant its vaccine rollout would be slower than hoped in the coming weeks but it expects deliveries to increase from May.
A number of European countries have halted use of the AstraZeneca shot because of concerns about possible side effects, though the World Health Organization said Europe should continue to use the vaccine.
