- Freedom Holding shares fall about 3% in afternoon trading, extending a choppy stretch into year-end.
- The move comes as U.S. stocks ease in holiday-thin trading, amplifying intraday swings.
- Investors are watching for the company’s next quarterly update after its last reported results highlighted heavy investment spending.
Freedom Holding Corp (FRHC) shares fell about 3% on Wednesday, sliding to $121.99 in afternoon trading after touching an intraday low of $121.64.
The drop lands on Wall Street’s final session of 2025, when trading often thins out as investors close books and rebalance portfolios. In a low-liquidity market — meaning fewer buyers and sellers to absorb trades — smaller orders can move prices more than usual.
U.S. stocks drifted lower in holiday-thin trading, with tech weighing on the major indexes. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity, pointing to profit-taking when liquidity is low. Reuters
