American International Group Inc. has increased its position in Atmos Energy Co. (NYSE:ATO). Simultaneously, Atmos has been outpacing its utilities peers this year, resulting in significant growth. A new 12-month high has been achieved at $125.40, buttressing its position as a top growth, dividend, and momentum stock. Despite some outlets downgrading these stocks to sell, other sectors continue to boost their holdings. The Q2 earnings beat estimates with increased sales, reinforcing it as a top dividend stock. However, it has been deemed to be at risk of overpricing which can affect its popularity among investors. Even with this risk, there is increased investment in these shares, including a new $1.88 million investment from Jupiter Asset Management Ltd. However, there is a newly identified risk affecting the stock further, although its strong fundamentals might defy market predictions. Atmos Energy continues to gain investments due to its steady growth and expanding customer base. Furthermore, financial growth has been observed and could potentially continue for those who invested in Atmos Energy three years ago, now up by 24%. However, the under-allocation of capital remains a struggle for the company.
