PLUG alt-data: revenue climbing, web traffic lagging
Is Plug Power a buy right now? The alternative data leans no. This PLUG stock analysis is built on the 25+ alternative data signals AltIndex tracks on Plug Power every day — hiring, web traffic, sentiment, social reach — rolled into an AI Score of 23/100: a Sell. The stock trades at $2.17 with a $3B market cap.
The 90-day pressure points: web traffic down 26.8% to 88K monthly visits, job postings down 13.2% to 79 open roles, and just 21% of employees report a positive business outlook. There are bright spots — revenue up 5.9% YoY to $180M, and Reddit mentions up 88.9% to 17 a day — but not enough to offset the broader weakness.
