August 2022 stock surge
The price of AMTD Digital for its listing on 15 July was $7.80 per share and by 2 August, the price had peaked at $1,679, which was an increase of 21,000% since listing.[4] The causes of the stock surge remains unknown.[3] One suggestion was that its ticker symbol of HKD on the NY exchange led traders to confuse it with the Hong Kong dollar.[11] It was reported that r/wallstreetbets, a subreddit of the website Reddit, were involved, although this was denied by the users themselves.[3][6] The phenomenon has drawn comparisons to the GameStop short squeeze and the AMC Theatres stock surge.[3][4][5][6] Its parent company, AMTD Idea Group (NYSE:AMTD), also benefited, where it was the highest traded stock on 2 August according to Fidelity Investments and rose 300% in the same week.[4][6]
Since 2 August, the stock price of the firm has dropped significantly from its peak.[12] The losses were greater than the entire market value of companies such as Intel or Goldman Sachs.[13] As of the end of the trading day on 16 August, the stock was valued at $181.02 per share.
Li Ka-shing's CK Hutchison Holdings, which owned shares in the firm's ultimate parent, AMTD Group, made a statement to distance itself from AMTD Digital, stating it held no shares in the firm.[14] Шаблон:Image frame
