NextEra Energy stock fell nearly 5% in early trading Tuesday after announcing a plan to sell $2 billion in equity units to finance power projects as electricity demand rises and to pay back debt. The Florida-based power company, which operates the largest portfolio of renewable energy in the U.S., will issue equity units for $50, which will serve as a contract to purchase shares no later than June 1, 2027. The utility sector has gained about 8.5% over the past three months, outpacing the 6.2% gain by the S&P 500. But the utility space has cooled off over the past month, with NextEra falling 5% over that period. About 71% of Wall Street analysts rate NextEra as the equivalent of buy, while 24% have put a hold on the stock and 4.8% have recommended that investors sell.

☆ The Dow Jones will eclipse 100,000 on a 'turbo booster' combo of earnings growth and Fed rate cuts, Wall Street CIO says
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-17 | by ( Matthew Fox | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

Interest rate cuts and continued earnings growth will power the Dow Jones to above 100,000 within the next decade. AdvertisementA powerful cocktail of earnings growth and interest rate cuts will serve as a "turbo booster" for stock prices and power the Dow Jones Industrial Average to over 100,000. And if the Fed doesn't cut interest rates this year, that won't derail Demmert's bullish forecast because earnings growth remains strong and resilient. "Yes, the AI tech stocks trade at much higher multiples than most stocks - but deservedly so given their premium growth rates," Demmert said. For the Dow Jones to hit 100,000, it would need to grow at a compounded annual growth rate of 11.2% over the next nine years.

Coming on Tuesday, Microsoft plans to start selling new AI-enabled laptops at Best Buy, with roughly 40% of Copilot+ PCs exclusive to the retailer. We think that high-end offerings like these will give Best Buy a much-needed boost in sales and later for its stock price, too. In Monday's note to clients, the analysts also said that Best Buy can get a "volume benefit from lowering prices on previous models of the same product."

☆ Investors may be looking at commercial real estate risk all wrong and missing these opportunities
▼ + stars: | 2024-06-16 | by ( Christina Cheddar Berk | In | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +6 min

The threat from a looming wave of maturing commercial real estate loans has been well telegraphed to investors, but it's possible the metrics they are using to protect themselves from risk are flawed. Many investors have been avoiding bank stocks with high concentrations of commercial real estate (CRE) exposure. Investors have been punishing regional bank stocks, especially when the bank's commercial real estate exposure tops more than 300% of its total equity . While the latter two have some exposure to New York City real estate, both banks benefit from strong management teams, he said. (New York real estate markets are navigating both falling office values as well as the dynamics of rent-regulated multifamily properties.)
