Fortis Inc. Stock Forecast
Green day on Thursday for Fortis Inc.
(Updated on May 02, 2024)
The Fortis Inc. stock price gained 0.0368% on the last trading day (Thursday, 2nd May 2024), rising from $54.36 to $54.38. It has now gained 4 days in a row. It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 0.82% from a day low at $54.33 to a day high of $54.78. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.82% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -203 thousand shares and in total, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $57.61 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.
Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Fortis Inc. stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $51.64 and $54.66 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.
