  • VisionSys AI Inc. 0T8B.F Stock Plunges 37.5% Pre-Market Amid Liquidity Concerns
    March 11, 2026, 9:28 PM EDT. VisionSys AI Inc. (0T8B.F) saw its stock drop sharply by 37.50% pre-market to €0.05 on Germany's XETRA exchange, as trading volume surged over tenfold to 410 shares from an average 38. The firm posted a deeply negative earnings per share (EPS) of -283.24, indicating heavy losses. With a market cap near €10,006 and strained liquidity, short-term traders face significant risks. Meyka AI's technical indicators highlight extreme volatility and low liquidity, despite grading the stock a 'B' with a hold recommendation. Price targets range widely from €0.02 to €1.00, hinging on potential operational recovery. Investors should closely monitor order book depth and await clearer cash flow or restructuring updates given VisionSys AI's fragile financial health and narrow market interest.
