PMGC Holdings Inc shares fell by 5.34% as it crossed below the 5-day SMA, reflecting investor concerns following the company's announcement of a 1-for-4 reverse stock split.

This decline comes amid market volatility, with the Nasdaq-100 down 0.64% and the S&P 500 slightly up. The reverse stock split, effective January 6, 2026, aims to reduce the number of outstanding shares to approximately 503,713, which the company hopes will enhance the per-share price and attract more investor interest. However, the market's reaction indicates skepticism about the effectiveness of this strategy in improving stock performance.

Investors are advised to monitor the company's future financial reports and market developments closely, as the reverse split is intended to optimize capital structure and enhance shareholder value, despite the immediate negative market response.
