ProPetro Holding Corp. (PUMP) shares surged 9.9% to $14.39 during the last trading session, driven by rising crude oil prices and achieving a higher-than-average trading volume. This increase follows a 12.7% gain over the past month, fueled by fresh attacks on Middle East energy infrastructure, which raised Brent Crude prices above $100 per barrel.
