DYN ALE

Dynegy Inc. (DYN - Free Report) was a big mover last session, as the company saw its shares rise more than 17% on the day. The move came on solid volume too with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This breaks the recent trend of the company, as the stock is now trading above the volatile price range of $9.09 to $9.87 in the past one-month time frame.

The upside was driven by rumors of a potential buyout of the company by Vistra Energy.

The recent price action is encouraging though, so make sure to keep a close watch on this firm in the near future.
