HDG Volume Spikes 15-Fold as Bloom Energy Slumps

ProShares Hedge Replication ETF (HDG) has seen unusual trading volume, which is 15× higher than its average daily volume.

Among HDG’s holdings, Bloom Energy is in focus as its shares slide while options activity turns moderately bearish, with elevated implied volatility and puts outnumbering calls, even as options skew hints at a modestly bullish tone. Precious-metals names Coeur Mining and Hecla Mining are both moving on stronger gold and silver prices, with Coeur rallying on optimism around its New Gold acquisition, a new Outperform rating, and capital-return plans, while Hecla benefits from surging silver, the launch of a leveraged ETF tied to its stock, and a cleaner balance sheet after asset sales. Credo Technology Group has eased legal uncertainty by reaching a confidential license and settlement agreement with TE Connectivity, and Sterling Infrastructure is supported by fresh Buy ratings and higher price targets as analysts highlight strong growth and e‑infrastructure momentum.
