Tenet Healthcare Corp. Tops Among Stocks With Birmingham Ties
Birmingham’s Market Trend
On June 13, 2024, the stock market saw a promising rise as U.S. stocks gained momentum following an unexpected positive update on inflation and an affirmation that the Federal Reserve is still hopeful of a cut in the interest rates sometime this year. Mirroring this auspicious trend, Birmingham’s local stocks also noted a significant hike with most stocks witnessing an upward curve.
Tenet Healthcare Corp. in the Lead
Among the various rising stocks in the Birmingham region, the leader of the pack was Tenet Healthcare Corp. An exceptional growth of over 3% was observed in stocks of only three companies, and Tenet Healthcare Corp. was greatly significant among these. At the close of the market, its stock price had risen by an impressive $4.98, settling at a 52-week high figure of $140.75. This shows the robust health of the company and its positive impact on the market.

A meager four stocks in the list saw a drop of over 1%, with Medical Properties Trust Inc. losing the most, declining by 1.8%. Despite this minor setback, the overall market displayed a promising and progressive picture with a substantial number of gainers.
