Vistra’s Nuclear Power Play Hits A Wall: Delayed Data Center Deal Shakes Market!
Vistra Corp shares recently pulled back sharply, dropping over 5% to $206.82 after hitting an all-time intraday high of $219.82 just a day earlier. The dip follows a downgrade by Jefferies, reflecting mounting investor concerns over delays in finalizing a high-stakes data center deal for the company’s Comanche Peak nuclear facility. While Vistra’s CEO Jim Burke expressed strong confidence that a deal will ultimately be signed, uncertainty around its timing and regulatory factors tied to Texas Senate Bill 6 have introduced a level of risk that the market is now pricing in. Despite these headwinds, Vistra remains financially robust, with a strong core business, promising capacity growth, and a bullish long-term energy demand outlook driven by AI and industrial expansion. The setback may simply represent a recalibration of expectations amid a stock that had already surged 50% year-to-date, pricing in significant optimism around data center contracting. Here’s a breakdown of the four key drivers shaping Vistra’s outlook amid this inflection point.
