FirstEnergy gets Outperform from BMO with $50 target

Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

A credible new rating and target from a known shop can attract near-term money flow and re-rate the stock toward the target if other factors remain supportive; historically, single favorable initiations can drive 5-10% moves in the ensuing weeks, especially when the stock trades near a key price like FE does around mid-$40s.
