Hawaiian Electric Industries Inc saw a significant price increase of 11.33%, breaking above its 5-day SMA amid positive market conditions.
The broader market, represented by indices like the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500, experienced slight declines, yet Hawaiian Electric's performance stood out, indicating strong investor interest.
This movement may reflect growing confidence in the utility sector, potentially attracting more investors looking for stability in turbulent market conditions.
