Bill Holdings Inc. (NYSE:BILL)
Bill Holdings (BILL) started Thursday’s trading on a strong note, opening at $89.01 apiece before traders took early profits to finish at $88.36. Thursday’s share price marked a 5.68-percent increase from its $83.69 close on Wednesday.
According to analysts, investor confidence was fueled by the company’s inclusion in the S&P Midcap 400 effective Monday, December 23. Bill Holdings was set to replace air conditioning and heating solutions Lennox International.
