With a market cap of $48.8 billion, TE Connectivity plc (TEL) is a global industrial technology company specializing in the design and manufacture of connectivity and sensor solutions.

TEL fits right into that category, with its market cap exceeding this threshold, reflecting its substantial size and influence in the electronic components industry. The company benefits from serving solutions to a wide range of industries, including industrial equipment, energy, aerospace, defense, oil, gas, and communication.

Moreover, TEL stock has grown 11.3% over the past 52 weeks and 16.1% on a YTD basis, outperforming Dow’s 10.2% gains over the past year and its marginal rise in 2025.

To confirm its bullish trend, TEL has been trading above its 200-day moving average since early May and above its 50-day moving average since late April.
