Buy now (momentum + fundamentals still favor upside): Despite today’s -4.29% regular-session drop, the broader trend remains bullish (SMA stack bullish), and post-market bounced to 757.34 (+1.49%).
Why it’s buyable even for an impatient investor: strong demand/backlog narrative in Power/Electrification, multiple fresh upgrades/target hikes, and Q4 growth/margin expansion support continuation.
Key level to watch immediately: price is between Pivot ~717 and R1 ~775; a clean push above ~775 improves near-term upside odds, while losing ~717 would weaken the “buy now” thesis.
IV context: IV percentile 46.4 / IV rank 22.86 → not extreme versus its own history.
Activity: volume 23,816 (92% of 30-day avg) while total OI 202,649 (110% vs avg) → active participation with meaningful outstanding positioning.

Wall Street pros (bull case): energy infrastructure cycle runway, sustained gas turbine demand/backlog, electrification upside, and multi-year margin + FCF expansion potential.

Reason
Baird analyst Ben Kallo upgraded GE Vernova to Outperform from Neutral with a price target of $923, up from $701. The firm believes the energy infrastructure cycle "is still in the early innings" and that GE Vernova is positioned as one of the biggest beneficiaries. Recent channel checks indicate prior overcapacity concerns will not materialize in the near- to intermediate-term, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Baird says GE's margin expansion "is only beginning."
