The CEO of nuclear-powered utility Constellation Energy , Joe Dominguez, emphasized the reliability of nuclear power in an interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer. Constellation says it's the largest producer of carbon-free energy that does not use fossil fuels, and comes from sources like wind, solar and nuclear. Dominguez added that nuclear power is reliable regardless of the weather, so it can fill in gaps that occur with solar and wind power generation. Dominguez also said Constellation aims to go beyond RECs, or annual renewable energy certificates, which he said don't always mean a company is meeting its carbon-free goals. He touted his company's energy-matching program, which aims to ensure that companies are receiving renewable energy sources on a moment-to-moment basis.

But Mahaffy's research found that it is not necessarily because companies have leaned away from socially conscious strategies. Instead, she pointed a growing use of the term "sustainability," as well as other words like "climate" or "decarbonization" that fall under the ESG umbrella. It comes at a time when ESG has become increasingly fraught in the political sphere. Mahaffry noted that areas like the U.S. where ESG has received the most scrutiny have seen the biggest drops in use of the term on earnings calls. On WestRock's earnings call earlier this month, Sewell told listeners: "This is just one example of many of how WestRock's unique capabilities position us for growth."

Keith Meister's Corvex Management placed a big new bet on drugmaker Catalent , among other moves in an active quarter for the fund manager. The fund also has a new position in Knife River , a construction materials and contracting company, leading to a $110.3 million holding. It's the seventh largest position in the fund and likely the result of a spin-off. In June, Knife River spun off from MDU Resources , which is the third largest holding in Corvex. Knife River is up more than 17% this quarter.

As the Fed delivered what markets assume will be the last rate hike of a brutal 13-month, 500-basis-point tightening cycle, further aftershocks from the March bank blowups reverberated in the background. And given they had advance knowledge of next week's quarterly loan survey before Wednesday's rate decision, it suggests the bigger picture they see remains somewhat equivocal. Norway's central bank raised interest rates as expected and signalled more to come. Events to watch for on Thursday:* European Central Bank policy decision, statement and news conference* U.S. first quarter unit labor costs and productivity, April layoffs, March trade balance, weekly jobless claims. They do not reflect the views of Reuters News, which, under the Trust Principles, is committed to integrity, independence, and freedom from bias.
The biggest week of this earnings season showed us that things aren't as bad as many feared. The week ahead of earnings, including several more Club names, should tell us more. The results are always important, but it's the guidance and management commentary we will really hone in on to better understand the path ahead. In Amazon's case, a solid first quarter for its AWS cloud business was overshadowed by management seeing a material slowdown in April. ET: Nonfarm Payrolls Looking back It was the biggest week of this earnings season for the Club as several of our mega-cap holdings and industry bellwethers reported results.
Under the federal program, states distribute a certain number of allowances to power plants annually. Reuters found dozens of other examples of coal plants using credits from closed facilities to help comply with pollution rules over the past five years. During the 2021 ozone season, New Madrid’s pollution was five times higher than average among coal plants participating in the NOx-reduction program, EPA data show. RED-STATE PROTESTSUtilities and lawmakers in Republican-controlled states have pushed hard against curbs on coal pollution, including the EPA’s latest NOx-reduction regulations. But even at that price, NOx allowances will find buyers among coal plants, including those that operate at high pollution rates.
Companies that raise their dividends do more than offer higher income for investors — their stocks also outperform over the next six months, according to Morgan Stanley. Investors are seeking better-yielding dividend stocks as they navigate a higher interest rate environment. In a review of relative price returns, excluding dividends, among Russell 1000 constituents, companies that increased their dividends saw their stocks rise an average of 3.9% in the six months following the announcement, the firm said. On the other hand, companies that cut their dividends underperformed even more sharply, down 9.6% six months after an announcement. Given this, Morgan Stanley found some firms that recently raised their dividends by at least 10%.

Morning Bid: Growth trumps rates

While there were some questions about seasonal adjustments in the data, economists were impressed that sales growth was pretty broad based and have scrambled to re-crunch first quarter U.S. output forecasts as a result. There may be a more mixed picture from Thursday's data slate on producer prices, housing starts and weekly jobless claims. Even though rates futures and Treasury yields ticked back a bit today, pricing now has Fed policy rates moving as high as 5.25% and staying above 5% all year. And while full-year earnings growth estimates for S&P500 companies have sunk to zero, consensus forecasts are now pencilling in a rebound of almost 12% next year. Uncertainty about the pace of growth and annual tax receipts in April makes it difficult for government officials to predict the exact "X-date", it said.
These stocks are lagging the S & P 500 in 2023, but are favored by analysts who expect a comeback, according to a CNBC Pro screen. Halliburton is due for a comeback, based on the analysts' ratings and price targets. The energy stock declined slightly to start 2023 after surging more than 72% last year. "We are buyers of CEG, which we believe is a significant beneficiary of the IRA, and this is not reflected in the current stock price," analyst Ross Fowler wrote. The Wall Street favorite — with buy ratings from 78% of analysts — has 21% upside to its price target, according to FactSet consensus estimates.
Billionaire hedge fund manager David Tepper built stakes in two large entertainment companies in the fourth quarter, according to securities filings . Tepper's Appaloosa Management bought 300,000 shares of Disney and 425,000 shares of Caesar's Entertainment during the fourth quarter. Those stakes were worth roughly $26.1 million and $17.7 million, respectively, at the end of December. Elsewhere in the portfolio, Tepper added to his stake in hospital chain HCA Healthcare while trimming his position in Facebook-parent Meta Platforms . It is unclear whether Tepper bought Disney shares before or after Bob Iger returned as CEO in November.
Looking forward The January consumer price index (CPI) , which calculates the average change over time in prices that shoppers pay for goods and services, is slated for Tuesday. Economists and investors will use the number to gauge the odds of a soft landing or hard landing for the economy. The producer price index (PPI) for January, which calculates the change in selling prices received by producers of goods and services, is out on Thursday.

With a majority of S & P 500 companies having posted their quarterly results, investors' focus will turn toward inflation and the consumer price index reading in the upcoming week. The three major indexes are on pace to end the week down, with the S & P 500 poised to post its worst performance since December. Sharp declines for Alphabet , which is off by more than 9% this week, dragged the tech-heavy index. January's consumer price index With the latest Powell speech in the books, investors are now looking ahead to the consumer price index for insight into the pace of inflation. "Retail sales and CPI is really driven by the consumer, and a lot of eyes are on how the consumer doing," Bruno said.

Constellation Energy is UBS's top Inflation Reduction Act beneficiary pick. UBS says the power generator group will see a major long-term upside from a nuclear production tax credit that's part of the climate measure . The tax credit sets an inflation adjusted $40 to $43.75 per megawatt-hour price for the volumes from CEG's merchant nuclear fleet unless power prices fall below $25/MWh, according to UBS. Fowler said that a scenario in which power prices fall below $25/MWh is "highly unlikely for a sustained period." The stock is down nearly 2% in 2023, and it's up 83% over the past 12 months.

In his latest documentary "Nuclear Now," Stone argues for the use of nuclear energy as an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuels. "We had the solution [nuclear power] … and the environmental movement, to be honest, just derailed it. For investors, the film adds to growing interest in nuclear power as a fossil fuel alternative beyond renewables. These funds invest in a variety of stocks tied to nuclear power throughout the value chain. Other global nuclear energy ETFs such as Sprott Uranium Miners (URNM) and the VanEck Uranium+Nuclear Energy (NLR) have gained more than 13% and 4% in 2023, respectively.
Power production in the United States will look very different in 2050 than it does now, and that spells opportunities for investors, according to Wells Fargo. Overall, NextEra Energy is uniquely positioned to capitalize on capital investment opportunities in utilities and clean energy, Kalton said. The firm's top nuclear stock is Constellation Energy , the largest nuclear owner in the country. His price target of $106 implies 26% upside for Constellation, which spun off from Exelon last February. Among the firm's picks for clean energy stocks is First Solar .
