The analyst comments: "We are initiating coverage of Powell Industries (POWL) with an Overweight rating and a $310 price target, reflecting ~25% upside from current levels. Powell is a dynamic leader in custom-engineered electrical distribution, control, and safety equipment, serving oil & gas, petrochemicals, utilities, and diversified industrial markets.
