RVNL’s share price continued to trade lower for the third straight session on Thursday going down close to 6% to hit an intraday low of ₹142.15.
What Happened: Shares of the Railway stock have gone down close to 15% in the last five sessions. While the reason behind the massive slump is not immediately clear, it is in line with the broader market fall.
Both the Nifty 50 and Sensex were trading over 1% lower at the time of writing on Thursday. Sensex is at a four-month low. The fall is linked with the rising geopolitical uncertainty and the rising US bond yields that have impacted the global equity market.
