Why Targa Resources Stock Rallied 11% in September

Shares of Targa Resources (NYSE: TRGP) jumped 11.2% in September, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The midstream company benefited from increasing optimism after two of its largest expansion projects recently started up.

Targa is in the midst of a major expansion phase. The company expects to invest $2.4 billion on capital projects this year, which sets it up for high-octane growth over the next few years.

With long-term, fee-based contracts backing that project, cash flow started surging in September.
