Analysts who have adjusted their ratings seem to agree that the outlook for electric vehicle charging stocks is strong because of government support and growth in electric vehicle sales.

With the passage of the Biden administration's infrastructure bill and solid earnings reports from several companies, electric car charging stocks performed well last week. Stock price movements have led Wall Street to think about which stocks are the best choice.
