Strength Seen in Brookfield Infrastructure (BIP): Can Its 8.8% Jump Turn into More Strength?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (BIP - Free Report) shares rallied 8.8% in the last trading session to close at $29.36. This move can be attributable to notable volume with a higher number of shares being traded than in a typical session. This compares to the stock's 4.4% loss over the past four weeks.
The increased investor optimism in the stock can be attributed to President Donald Trump’s recent announcement to put a 90-day pause on the reciprocal tariff for most countries.
This operator of utility, transportation and energy assets is expected to post quarterly funds from operations (FFO) of $0.84 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +7.7%. Revenues are expected to be $5.39 billion, up 3.8% from the year-ago quarter.
FFO and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in FFO estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.
For Brookfield Infrastructure, the consensus estimate for FFO per share for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. And a stock's price usually doesn't keep moving higher in the absence of any trend in FFO estimate revisions. So, make sure to keep an eye on BIP going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.
Brookfield Infrastructure belongs to the Zacks REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry. Another stock from the same industry, Medical Properties (MPW - Free Report) , closed the last trading session 7% higher at $5.36. Over the past month, MPW has returned -12.1%.
Medical Properties' consensus estimate for FFO per share for the upcoming report has changed +9.5% over the past month to $0.15. Compared to the company's year-ago FFO per share, this represents a change of -37.5%. Medical Properties currently boasts a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
