Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises is trading 7.7% up now at $8.51 as investors buy the dip after an eight-day slide tied to short-seller allegations and a securities fraud lawsuit over its $2.4 billion Base Electron power project.
- The move appears to be a technical rebound from recent lawsuit and short-selling pressure rather than a fresh fundamental catalyst.
- The stock is currently outperforming the broader industrials sector, which is trading lower today.
