An electric car company owned by China's Evergrande is having trouble paying suppliers and has called off plans to sell new shares as the group's woes spread beyond its core real estate business.
Shares in China Evergrande New Energy Vehicle Group fell more than 9% in Hong Kong on Monday following announcements that it would no longer pursue a secondary listing in Shanghai, and that it was having trouble paying suppliers. The stock was down as much as 30% earlier in the day.
Concerns have been swirling for some time: shares of the EV firm have suffered several single-day drops of more than 20% in recent weeks, and have crashed more than 90% so far this year.
After recent burglaries at homes of professional athletes – including Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce – the NFL and NBA have issued security memos to teams and players warning that “organized and skilled groups” are increasingly targeting players’ residences for such crimes.
