Stock Movers

On this episode of Stock Movers: - Constellation Energy (CEG) shares are dropping after the Trump administration and several states laid out a plan intended to compel technology companies to effectively fund the construction of new power plants as a way to tame surging consumer utility bills while aiding the development of data centers. The unprecedented plan has two ambitious goals: First, it aims to accelerate the construction of new power plants — specifically those capable of providing round-the-clock power like natural gas — needed to supply data centers that are crucial to the artificial intelligence boom. And second, it seeks to address growing tensions over who will bear the costs of rising electricity demand as consumers face higher utility bills. Shares of the largest independent power producers slid. Vistra Corp. declined as much at 9.5%, Talen Energy Corp. slipped as much as 11% and Constellation Energy Corp. dropped as much as 10%. - GE Vernova (GEV) traded higher on the major energy shakeup. Jeffries analyst Julien Dumoulin-Smith sees GE Vernova as the clearest winner from these plans as PJM transmission and distribution companies will have less pressure on bills and potential regulated distribution. Shares of the company rose over 7%. - Freddie Mac (FMCC) and Fannie Mae (FNMA) shares are on an extended days-long losing streaks after Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte cheered President Trump’s decision not to sell the mortgage-finance companies during his first term. Earlier this week, shares of both mortgage-finance giants sunk to their lowest levels since late November as investors continued to assess the impact of a slew of economic proposals from President Trump that are linked to housing.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
