Intraday price and liquidity

The bid was EUR 35.15 and the ask EUR 35.60 at the same Lang & Schwarz snapshot. Befesa operates recycling services for steel dust and aluminum residues, so the share price remains closely tied to industrial activity, zinc economics and the execution of capacity projects.

Stock remains below yearly high

The gap to the high is the clearer near-term placement signal: the stock has recovered substantially from its yearly low but has not yet regained its upper range.
