Most Active

SM Development Corporation (SMDC) traded P113.68 million in value around the same time. TEL followed with P73.67 million. SMDC opened at 7.25 but quickly retreated to 7.10 as more low priced bidders dominate the market.

Around 10:40, buyers took on 7.20 a share in thousands but cannot keep the price up against downward sellers who dispose at BID7.19 in tens of thousands, as more 7.20 askers are selling off. By 11:00, ASK reached 7.21 as buyers from ATR took charge. But a dump of stocks from LUCKY at 7.15 brought the prices down, initiating a spiral drop to 7.10. But sellers failed to break through the 165,000 shares available at that level.

By 11:09, TEL took over the lead in turnover value, reaching P121 million over SMDC's 117 million. Sell-off transactions dominated the day at a ratio of 9-to-1, mostly from DEUTSCHE. TEL poised to lead the bourse again in most turnovers.
