Why is KMI moving today?
+4.2%KMI is +4.2% today, a large move, and no story about it reached the feed in the last 24 hours. Large moves without a headline are common: index flows, options positioning, a peer's report or a sector rotation can all do it. We do not invent a reason.
What this does not prove. A story on the same day is evidence of timing, not of cause: it explains a move only if it accounts for the size and the direction, and most single-stock moves carry a sector or index component too. Nothing here is a forecast.
