AirAsia Bhd has been facing strong headwinds lately. The budget carrier’s share price has been on a roller-coaster ride over the past couple of months, fluctuating dramatically.

The airline’s shares have been under pressure for some time and plunged to 78 sen on Aug 26. Its share price has since rebounded sharply from that recent low, with analysts calling it an overshooting of its price during the selldown. AirAsia became a penny stock at the end of last month and stayed below the RM1 mark for about two weeks. Its share price has since rebounded, closing at RM1.31 yesterday.
