Credicorp shares are sliding after investors reacted to heavy institutional selling and a pullback from recent highs. Regulatory filings show that major holder Baillie Gifford & Co. cut its position by about 9.5%, a move that pressured market sentiment and sparked worries about further downside.
The drop comes on the heels of a weak quarterly report in which Credicorp missed both revenue and earnings per share estimates. Analysts have also pointed out that the stock had been trading well above its consensus price target near $297.60, adding to the sense that a valuation reset was overdue.
