Big Money Builds New Fortress Energy

And the energy infrastructure company could jump even more due to strong earnings and newfound demand from geopolitical tensions. But another likely reason is Big Money lifting the stock.

New Fortress Energy Attracts Big Money

So, what’s Big Money? Said simply, that’s when a stock goes up in price alongside chunky volumes. It’s indicative of institutions betting on the shares.

Smart money managers are always looking for the next hot stock. And New Fortress Energy has many fundamental qualities that are attractive.

This sets up well for the stock going forward. But how the shares have been trading points to more upside. As I’ll show you, the Big Money has been consistent in the shares.

You see, fund managers are always looking to bet on the next outlier stocks…the best in class. They spend countless hours sizing up companies, reading reports, speaking to analysts…you name it. When they find a company firing on all cylinders, they pounce in a big way.

That’s why I’ve learned how critical it is to gauge Big Money demand for shares. To show you what I mean, have a look at all the Big Money signals NFE has made the last year.

The last few weeks have seen Big Money activity too. Each green bar signals big trading volumes as the stock ramped in price:

In the last year, the stock attracted 14 Big Money buy signals. Generally speaking, recent green bars could mean more upside is ahead.

Now, let’s check out technical action grabbing my attention:

Outperformance is important for leading stocks.
