BYD Shares Face Market Pressure Despite Global EV Dominance

Shares of Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD experienced significant selling pressure on the Hong Kong stock exchange, declining sharply amid a broader market downturn. The sell-off occurred despite BYD maintaining a substantial lead over competitor Tesla in global pure electric vehicle sales for 2025.

During trading sessions, BYD equity dropped 5 percent to HK$108.20, reflecting wider market weakness as both the Hang Seng Index and Hang Seng Tech Index registered losses.
