Welcome Investors!
On October 10, 2025, ESS Tech Inc. (NYSE: GWH) stunned the market with a staggering one-day gain of 142 percent. The stock closed at $4.16, more than doubling from the previous session. Over 280 million shares traded hands, a staggering number considering the company’s float is just 9.4 million shares.
The rally caught the attention of momentum traders, retail investors, and clean tech analysts alike. But beneath the spike lies a bigger question.
Was this a turning point or just a perfectly timed fluke?
