Sterling Construction is trading 4.36% up at $559.38, with the rebound appearing tied to renewed confidence in accelerating data-center demand.

  • The August 3 report showed $1.17 billion in second-quarter revenue, $5.80 adjusted EPS and higher full-year guidance.
  • Investors initially focused on margin and business-mix concerns.
  • The August 6 rebound also reflects the company’s $5.6 billion backlog, rather than a new announcement.
