Rationale:
The stock is likely to continue its upward momentum next week based on positive technical indicators and fundamental developments.
The Carlyle Group, with $307.4 billion in fee-earning AUM at the end of December 2023, is one of the go-to firms for institutional and high-net-worth investors looking for exposure to alternative assets.
The company's increased scale, diversified product offerings, long track record of investment performance, and strong client relationships position it to perform well in a variety of market conditions.
Customer demand for alternatives has increased, with institutional investors in the category limiting the number of providers they use-both positives for the firm's business model.
