SK SK Hynix's decline widened to over 12%, with its share price reaching a new low since April 27

Why it matters to readers

The share-price decline and the period low indicate relatively strong short-term selling pressure on the stock, but the evidence does not explain the reason for the decline.

This can help beginners understand that “a widening decline” and “reaching a period low” mean, respectively, that the pace of the decline has accelerated and that the share price is below its level during an earlier period.
