A Texas-based power company that only joined the S & P 500 two months ago is the third-best performing stock in the index this year, boosted by the same demand for everything connected to artificial intelligence. Fast forward to today and Vistra stock has soared 139% this year, adding $18.5 billion to its market cap, which now totals $32 billion, according to FactSet data. "We are always surprised when you see a move the size that we've seen, but I think it's been a long time building," Jim Burke, CEO of Vistra, told CNBC's "Closing Bell" Tuesday. Vistra also owns nuclear power plants, one of the most in-demand power sources in the 2024 market because reactors burn no fossil fuel and emit no greenhouse gases . Guggenheim has a buy rating on Vistra stock with a price target of $133, implying 44% upside from Wednesday's close of $92.31.

☆ 'Bulldog' lawyer Thomas Lauria Lauria predicted a crypto 'liquidation boom' well before Sam Bankman-Fried's FTX filed for bankruptcy

Thomas Lauria runs the bankruptcy team at White & Case where clients have included Hertz and Johnson & Johnson. But Lauria told Insider that the ability of crypto companies to reorganize will depend on whether they have any real assets. Notably, when Lauria represented Hertz in its Chapter 11 case during the coronavirus pandemic, even its unsecured creditors were repaid in full. So I'm not sure that what's happening in crypto right now is really going to be a reorganization boom, but really probably more of a liquidation boom. About $10 billion of Hertz debt, when they filed, was related to financing in connection with their US fleet.
