This week again Yahoo! Finance commented on Energous Corp:
Energous Corporation WATT, a developer of a wire-free charging technology that promises to offer long-distance wireless charging abilities. While Energous is a long way from successfully delivering on its early ideas, many are linking Apple and Energous, and we could see some Energous tech in the iPhone 8.
This is the type of rumor we constantly see in the headlines. It implies that, when the iPhone 8 comes out and would not include Energous Corp’s technology, the stock price will correctly sharply. That is also what happened in October, when iPhone 7 was announced without wireless charging. But, as seen on the chart, buyers took over control from sellers after a 35 percent retracement.
As Energous keeps on iterating that they are preparing a rollout with one of the largest tech companies in the world, it feeds the market with expectations that, sooner or later, Energous Corp’s technology will find traction. That is also the message on WATTs stock chart.
