AI Overview
XEL Stock Price and Analyst Ratings
Truist maintained a 'Buy' rating on Xcel Energy (XEL) on June 9, citing its position among the top energy stocks capitalizing on the data center boom. However, on May 18, Truist lowered its price target to $92 from $95, while keeping the 'Buy' rating, reflecting a broader review of utilities. Meanwhile, Morgan Stanley downgraded XEL to 'Equal Weight' on May 21, reducing the price target to $87.
The mixed analyst sentiment has led to a re-evaluation of XEL's valuation, with investors weighing the company's dividend safety and data center growth prospects against potential headwinds. The broader utilities sector and data center-focused stocks are affected, with investors seeking clarity on XEL's growth trajectory.
Upcoming catalysts to watch include XEL's Q2 earnings release on July 28, any updates on its data center expansion plans, and regulatory decisions on its rate cases, particularly in Colorado and Minnesota, scheduled for later this year.
