What drove the stock rise?
A day earlier company experienced a loss of -21.20% on last Thursday after a comment by Texas Governor Greg Abbott who blamed frozen wind turbines for massive power outages in the state during the recent storm, saying that the Green News Deal would be a deadly deal for the United States. That caused the prices of several green energy companies to fall on the day. But in an interview, former Microsoft CEO, Bill Gates called those remarks wrong and an attack on clean energies. The remarks came to be supporting renewable energy, causing their stocks to recover the loss and attaining gains on Friday.
