CBAK shows a consistent operational performance
CBAK has shown strong performance and fundamentals in this first week of the month and has been surging since the past year due to its growth potential in the EV market. However, it had a well over 19% plunge in February as the hype around growth stock and EV stocks died down in the month. This was because traders and investors have developed a more cautious approach to these stocks; they decided to sell off a substantial portion of the EV stocks.
CBAT stock maintained consistent operational activities during the EV market dip, which briefly propped up its stock value as it announced a new battery tech on Feb 19 which functions in ultra-low temperatures and known as 26650 lithium rechargeable batteries or simply Special 26650 battery.
