ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CHPT) stock is up during Wednesday’s premarket session as the company highlights a growing demand for electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.
This positive movement follows the release of data showing that charging demand continues to outpace the growth of charging ports, adding to the bullish sentiment surrounding the stock as broader markets experienced mixed performance.
ChargePoint’s recent data indicates that the number of EV charging sessions increased by 34%, significantly outpacing the 16% growth in new charging ports.
The company emphasized that nearly 60% of the electric miles enabled over its nearly 18-year history occurred in the last two years, underscoring the accelerating demand for charging infrastructure.
Automotive industry data indicates that global EV sales increased 20% in 2025, with European sales growing 33% and the U.S. experiencing its second-best year of EV sales ever.
ChargePoint is enabling more EV drivers than ever, with more than one million drivers using ChargePoint every month, the company said in a statement.
ChargePoint is currently trading 0.4% above its 20-day simple moving average (SMA) but is 10.9% below its 50-day SMA, 26.9% below its 100-day SMA, and 39.9% below its 200-day SMA. Shares have decreased by 53.33% over the past 12 months and are positioned closer to their 52-week lows than highs.
The RSI is at 47.83, which is considered neutral territory, while the MACD is above its signal line, indicating bullish momentum. The combination of neutral RSI and bullish MACD suggests mixed momentum.
ChargePoint derives the majority of its revenue from the United States.
The company’s recent data release highlights its significant role in the EV market, especially as demand for charging infrastructure grows faster than the installation of new charging ports. This positions ChargePoint as a key player in the transition to electric mobility, making its stock an important consideration for investors looking to capitalize on the EV trend.
