What Happened?

Shares of electricity storage and software provider Fluence (NASDAQ: FLNC) jumped 6.5% in the morning session after the stock extended its positive momentum as analysts at UBS raised their price target and the company announced a key operational milestone in Australia.

UBS increased its price target to $8.00 from $6.00, citing improved visibility into near-term gross margin improvement. While maintaining a "Neutral" rating, the firm's outlook was supported by lower universal tariff rates on imports and favorable IRS guidance.

Adding to the positive sentiment, Fluence announced the first global deployment of its complete product ecosystem at a 100MW/200MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Victoria, Australia. The project integrates the company's Gridstack hardware with its Mosaic AI-powered bidding software and Nispera asset performance management platform, showcasing a significant technological achievement for the company.

What Is The Market Telling Us

Fluence Energy’s shares are extremely volatile and have had 68 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today’s move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business.

The previous big move we wrote about was 2 days ago when the stock gained 0.7% on the news that the stock showed a slight recovery following a sharp drop in the previous session. The modest gain comes after the stock fell more than 6%. Investor sentiment has been weighed down by the complex tariff environment, with ongoing uncertainties about tariffs on Chinese imports potentially impacting the company's supply chain and cost structure. With no new positive company-specific news, today's pre-market uptick appears to be a technical rebound following the recent sell-off.

Fluence Energy is down 56.1% since the beginning of the year, and at $7.42 per share, it is trading 68.4% below its 52-week high of $23.50 from November 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Fluence Energy’s shares at the IPO in October 2021 would now be looking at an investment worth $212.02.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.
