We recently published a list of Chinese Stocks Dominate Monday’s 10 Worst Performers. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Li Auto Inc. (NASDAQ:LI) stands against other Chinese stocks that performed worst on Monday.

Wall Street’s main indices finished mixed on Monday as investors remained cautious amid the escalating trade tensions globally, with President Donald Trump threatening to slap China anew with a 50-percent tariff if the latter does not withdraw its countermeasure.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq was the sole gainer during the day, up 0.10 percent. In contrast, the Dow Jones declined by 0.91 percent and the S&P 500 dropped by 0.23 percent.

Meanwhile, 10 companies—predominantly Chinese stocks—were sold down as investors moved away to minimize the potential risks from the trade war.

In this article, we have identified Monday’s worst performers and detailed the reasons behind their drop.

To come up with the list, we considered only the stocks with $2 billion market capitalization and $5 million in trading volume.

Li Auto declined for a fourth day on Monday, shedding 6.76 percent to finish at $21.51 apiece as investors disposed of Chinese stocks amid the escalating trade tensions between the US and China.

In recent news, LI announced its entry into the Philippine market as demand for electric vehicles in the country continues to rise. It tapped HomeAuto Inc. as its official distributor in the country.

Notably, the Philippines is LI’s first market in Southeast Asia to offer its range of family-oriented range-extended EVs.

“We are thrilled to introduce Li Auto’s innovative smart electric vehicles to the Philippines,” said Stone Yu, CEO of HomeAuto Inc. “The local market presents a significant opportunity for us with its increasing awareness of electric vehicles and growing interest in modern technology. Filipinos’ strong family values align perfectly with our vision, so we are confident that they will appreciate the unique blend of luxury and technology that Li Auto offers.”

Overall, LI ranks 8th on our list of Chinese stocks that performed worst on Monday.
