Vertiv is an American provider of equipment and services for data centers. Vertiv Holdings was formerly known as Emerson Network Power in 2016. As of now, Vertiv has a total staff strength of 27,000 globally. Vertiv Holdings had its IPO in July 2018 at $9.68. It is listed on NYSE as $VRT. On the monthly chart since its IPO, price ranged until December 2019 when a new high was reached at $12.43. Just like most stocks, $VRT dipped during the lockdown to an all-time low of $4.76.
As price bounced from the all-time low, a major rally occurred, which took price to $28.88 in September 2021. Despite the price fall of Vertiv in 2022, the company had a revenue of $5.6 billion. The value of Vertiv Holdings dropped as a result of material and freight inflation. It was $40 million worse than expected, and “foreign exchange, divestitures, and other” was $45 million worse than expected in 2022.
Since the beginning of this year, Vertiv Holdings has brought relief to investors as price rallied to break the previous high at $28.88. On the 2nd of August 2023, price of $VRT jumped to $33.01 from $26.51, which was the close of the previous day. The gap-up is yet to be corrected as price is currently consolidating despite general market trends in the last one month being bearish.
The all-time high stands at $36.73. This was reached on August 4, 2023. We foresee a breakout to the upside in the coming weeks leading to a new high which will replace the current all-time high.
