Trent Share Price Slides Sharply, Amid Global Chaos
On Tuesday, January 6, Trent stock faced a tough beginning, falling by 8.34% to an intraday low of ₹4,060 on the NSE, after its business update for the December quarter was not well received by investors. The BSE also reflected the same scenario, with a drop of 8.32% in the stock price and, simultaneously, an increase in trading volumes. Evidently, the market had higher expectations, and it did not hesitate to express its discontent.
