Magic Empire (MEGL) stock continues to take investors on a wild ride as the Hong Kong-based company sees massive volatility after its recent IPO. MEGL listed its IPO at $4 but opened its first full day of trading at $50 on August 5 before finishing the first day at $97. This was a gain of a colossal $93 in just one day of trading. Since then MEGL stock fell back to just over $8 last week, but Monday saw a resurgence of interest as MEGL more than doubled and closed up at $17.73.
Magic Empire stock news
Is there anything fundamental behind all this volatility? Or is it more of a pump-and-dump, speculative frenzy? Well, it appears to be mostly the latter. There has been little in the way of fundamental news to justify such massive volatility, and we cannot even find too much in the way of rumor or hearsay to justify such moves. Normally one would at least expect some short squeeze theories or rumors of some impending development to surface somewhere on the internet to at least justify the pump.
It appears many day traders are in this for the momentum trade rather than any deep and meaningful understanding of the business model. This is probably just as well considering there is not much financial data to pore over. Magic Empire is an advisory company that ironically specializes in helping companies in the IPO process among other things. There is nothing like its own IPO to advertise!
Magic Empire stock forecast
MEGL stock is a pure momentum play, so watch for the tell: a high open or premarket move that is not sustained. Just be careful and have strong risk management in place.
