NRG Energy’s Stock Jumped On Tight Power Markets And A Big Deal
NRG Energy's stock surged approximately 68.7% over the past year, outperforming the S&P 500, driven by strong wholesale margins, robust retail results, and a planned $12 billion acquisition of LS Power generation assets set to double its capacity. This acquisition is expected to boost long-term EPS growth from 10% to 14%, alongside other growth initiatives like data center power contracts and smart home expansion. Despite some valuation complexities and risks such as high financial leverage and regulatory uncertainties, analysts maintain a "Moderate Buy" rating with a significant upside potential for the stock.
