  • What does "buy" mean in XEL activity?

    "Buy" means an investor increased their reported position in XEL compared to the prior reporting period. This reflects growing exposure to XCEL ENERGY INC (XEL) rather than necessarily a brand-new position (though new positions also appear as buys when prior quantity was zero).

  • Is institutional interest in XEL increasing?
