Fluor Corp's stock rose by 5.04% as it crossed above the 20-day SMA, reflecting positive momentum in the market.
The increase in stock price is attributed to Fluor's third-quarter update, which revealed an upward revision of its full-year earnings outlook, indicating a gradual recovery after disappointing second-quarter results. The company's backlog now exceeds $20 billion, driven by strong demand in the Urban Solutions segment, particularly in metals and mining. Additionally, Fluor has begun realizing substantial profits from its investment in NuScale Power, which is expected to deliver significant value to shareholders.
This optimistic outlook suggests that Fluor is well-positioned for future growth, especially with anticipated new client projects in the current quarter and the ongoing construction of data centers, which could further enhance its market position.

Reason
Citi lowered the firm's price target on NuScale Power (SMR) to $18.50 from $37.50 and keeps a Sell rating on the shares. The firm attributes the stock's 52% decline in the past quarter to Fluor's (FLR) plans to monetize its stake and uncertainty around NuScale's first firm contract. Citi thinks the stock will remain pressured as the company's sales from existing contracts decline and Fluor continues to sell shares. NuScale inking a contract with the Tennessee Valley Authority in the near- to medium-term seems unlikely, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Reason
Truist raised the firm's price target on Fluor to $56 from $51 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm cites the company's Q3 earnings beat and guidance raise, which was driven by better profits in the ES segment as the Mexico project that had slowed last quarter has now re-ramped, coupled with a favorable outcome from a large energy project reaching completion, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
