An Impressive Rise in the SDAX
The stock of Friedrich Vorwerk has achieved an impressive price increase of nearly 150 percent since the beginning of the year, making it the second strongest stock in the SDAX, trailing only Alzchem. On Friday, the stock rose again by about 8 to 10 percent, reaching a new record high, which is considered a strong chart signal.
Business Focus as a Growth Driver
The reason for this positive development lies primarily in the company’s business focus: Friedrich Vorwerk is active as a pipeline and plant builder for natural gas, electricity, and hydrogen applications. These areas benefit from the globally rising energy demand, leading to a significant increase in the demand for network and gas technology. This results in full order books and positive business development.
Analyses and Forecasts
Additionally, the stock received a boost from an optimistic study by the Metzler bank. Expert Nikolas Demeter has raised the price target from 70 to 72 Euros. He expects that, based on the figures for the first quarter and the favorable industry environment, Friedrich Vorwerk will raise its annual targets – which are currently seen as conservative. The half-year figures will be published on August 14.
Since October 2024, the stock has been on the recommendation list of DER AKTIONÄR with a gain of about 135 percent since then. Given the strong demand for energy technology stocks, it is expected that the growth potential has not yet been fully tapped.
