PPL extends rally on analyst optimism and upcoming earnings expectations
PPL continues a multi-day advance supported by positive analyst sentiment. Wells Fargo maintained a Buy rating with a $45 price target, while MarketBeat reports a consensus Buy recommendation with an average target of $41.20. The Globe and Mail notes PPL has outperformed its industry over the past month.

Analysis

This marks the fourth consecutive day of gains for PPL, extending a pattern that began mid-week. The stock is significantly outperforming both its sector and the broader market, suggesting company-specific factors rather than utility sector rotation. Anticipation of Q4 earnings, with analysts projecting a double-digit profit increase, appears to be drawing buyer interest. This continues the momentum noted in recent sessions when analyst support drove similar gains on elevated volume.
