Mesdaq at the uptrend line support of 113

Yesterday, the Mesdaq had one of its worst days when 2 of its outstanding performers i.e. Iris & Mobif came down sharply. Iris, the rise of which epitomizes the rise of the Mesdaq in the past 6 months, continues its steady decent after making its double top at RM1.39 on July 13. Yesterday, Iris dropped 9 sen or 25% to 26.5 sen (see Chart 1 below). Mobif has dropped by an even bigger margin of 51% or RM1.83 to RM1.77 yesterday (see Chart 2 below). Unlike Iris, Mobif’s drop yesterday was its first day of selldown and its shareholders will likely to have many more anxious days ahead.
