Shares of Antelope Enterprise Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: AEHL) plummeted nearly 30% to 3.1794 in early trading on July 29, as of writing, even after the company reported a strategic move.
Antelope Enterprise Holdings Limited conducts both a livestreaming e-commerce enterprise in China and provides consulting and services in business management and information systems. The company aims to be a Chinese-based digital commerce and solutions provider to enterprises.
The sudden drop in the company's price came shortly after it announced that it executed a Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville Capital LLC at the discretion of Streeterville for financing up to $50 million that is designated for the sole purpose of purchasing Bitcoin in the next 24 market response indicates a growing level of investor skepticism and panic-selling behavior regarding their willingness to believe in corporate pivots to Bitcoin, particularly given the volatility in digital assets and increasing concerns about "execution risk."
AEHL opened the day at $5.41, traded up briefly to a high of $6.53, then quickly reversed course and evaporated nearly a quarter of its market capitalization.
The company's stock is nearly 98% down over the last 12 months.
CEO Tingting Zhang referred to the decision as a "significant milestone" in AEHL's evolution into a digital business.
"Bitcoin, as a scarce and decentralized asset with growing global consensus, will be a key component of our new capital structure," Zhang added and promised the company would disclose information about its purchase and custody as they progress.
