Posted on 2/4/26

Trading on February 4, 2026, saw a dynamic session with significant movements across various sectors, reflecting investor reactions to both company-specific developments and broader market trends. While some companies celebrated robust gains, others faced a challenging day, underscoring the diverse performance within the market.

Leading the pack of top performers was SUPERCITY REALTY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (SRDC), surging by an impressive 42.86%. The stock closed at 23.80, adding 7.14 to its previous close. With a trading volume of 4,200 shares, the total value reached 88,476.00. This notable uptick comes amidst speculation of a major land bank acquisition that could significantly bolster its development pipeline, generating strong investor interest in its future prospects.

Following closely was UNIHOLDINGS INC. (UNH), which climbed 15.56%, closing at 130.00. The holding firm saw a price change of 17.5, with 60 shares exchanged for a total value of 7,800.00. The positive sentiment around UNIHOLDINGS may be linked to reports of strong performance from its key subsidiaries, particularly those involved in diversified investments.

ANGLO PHILIPPINE HOLDINGS CORPORATION (APO) also experienced a strong day, gaining 14.0% to finish at 1.14. The company's stock saw a price change of 0.14, with a substantial volume of 1,924,000 shares traded, amounting to a total value of 2,131,740.00. As a holding company with interests in mining and other resources, APO's rise could be attributed to an improving outlook for commodity prices, especially in the metals sector.

In the mining sector, ATLAS CONSOLIDATED MINING AND DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (AT) added 8.43% to its value, closing at 9.90. The stock rose by 0.77, with a high volume of 3,913,700 shares generating a total value of 37,933,700.00. Renewed optimism for global copper demand and favorable operational updates from its mining sites are likely contributors to this increase.

VISTA LAND & LIFESCAPES, INC. (VLL) also posted a healthy gain of 7.22%, closing the day at 1.04. The real estate developer saw its price increase by 0.07, trading 2,668,000 shares for a total value of 2,763,720.00. Strong pre-sales figures for its residential projects and a positive housing market outlook are seen as potential drivers for VLL's appreciation.

On the other side of the ledger, BRIGHT KINDLE RESOURCES & INVESTMENTS INC. (BKR) emerged as one of the day's biggest decliners, shedding 11.84%. The stock closed at 0.67, losing 0.09 from its previous close. Trading volume reached 239,000 shares, with a total value of 162,430.00. The decline may be linked to recent unfavorable news regarding a proposed investment project failing to secure necessary regulatory approvals.

IMPERIAL RESOURCES, INC. (IMP) also faced significant selling pressure, dropping 9.28% to close at 0.88. The stock decreased by 0.09, with 2,000 shares traded, valued at 1,760.00.

Similar to other resource-based companies, SOC's decline could reflect broader investor caution in the sector or specific operational challenges.

Construction giant EEI CORPORATION (EEI) saw its shares slide by 7.56%, closing at 2.20. The company's stock fell by 0.18, with 1,693,000 shares exchanging hands for a total value of 3,812,570.00. The downturn could be a reaction to recent reports indicating slower than expected progress on key infrastructure projects or a revision in its earnings outlook for the current quarter.

Finally, LBC EXPRESS HOLDINGS, INC. (LBC) rounded out the top losers, with its shares dipping 5.53% to 7.52. The logistics firm experienced a price change of -0.44, with 500 shares traded, totaling 3,844.00 in value. Intense competition in the logistics sector and increasing operational costs are frequently cited factors affecting LBC's performance.

Today's trading session highlights a market influenced by sector-specific news and speculative plays, particularly in real estate and mining, while some resource and construction firms felt the pinch of project-related concerns and competitive pressures.
