On CNBC's &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mad-money-lightning-round">Mad Money Lightning Round</a>,&#8221; Jim Cramer said he likes NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) and recommended buying the same. &#8220;I think you've got a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NEE/earnings">good one,&#8221; he added</a>.
On Jan. 24, NextEra Energy Inc posted in-line earnings for the fourth quarter and said it continues to expect adjusted EPS of $3.45-$3.70 for FY25.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Cramer&#8217;s Take On Tech Stocks</h3>
<ul>
<li>Fastly, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLY#NYSE">FSLY</a>) has missed the quarter too often, Cramer said. &#8220;If you want to be in that, you want to be in Cloudflare (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NET#NYSE">NET</a>).&#8221; The San Francisco-based company will release financial results for the fourth quarter after the closing bell on Wednesday, Feb. 12.</li>
<li>A10 Networks, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ATEN#NYSE">ATEN</a>) is &#8220;up in a straight line, it's a parabolic move.&#8221; He noted that although it's a good company, but he can't recommend parabolic stocks. &#8220;Let that one come in,&#8221; he added. The San Jose, California-based company, on Feb. 4, posted better-than-expected earnings for its fourth quarter.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Other Stocks In Focus</h3>
Danaher Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DHR#NYSE">DHR</a>) has been bad for him, the Mad Money host said. &#8220;That last quarter was terrible, and, frankly, they were very smug on the call talking about how good it was, and that was a very ill-advised strategy that they adopted, and I don't like it.&#8221;
Supporting his view, Raymond James analyst Andrew Cooper, on Feb. 3, downgraded Danaher from Outperform to Market Perform.
IES Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IESC#NASDAQ">IESC</a>) is Jeffrey Gendell's [Chief Executive Officer for IES Holdings] company, Cramer said. &#8220;He is a, just an amazing man.&#8221;
As per the recent earnings report, IES, on Tuesday, reported quarterly earnings of $2.64 per share, up from $1.86 per share from the same period last year. The company reported $749.50 million in sales during the quarter, compared to $634.40 million the same period last year.
Cramer said Schlumberger Limited (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLB#NYSE">SLB</a>) is a &#8220;really great&#8221; company, but he doesn't want to recommend the stock. &#8220;It's the best house in a bad neighborhood, and we don't want to be in bad neighborhoods,&#8221; he added.
In the recent news, Schlumberger's OneSubsea joint venture on Tuesday entered an agreement with Vår Energi to deliver a subsea production systems work scope, aimed at supporting multiple upcoming oil and gas developments on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

Jim Cramer Likes This Utilities Stock: 'I Think You've Got A Good One'

BofA Securities analyst Ross Fowler downgraded the shares of American States Water Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AWR#NYSE">AWR</a>) from Neutral to Underperform and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AWR/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">lowered the price forecast from&nbsp;$85&nbsp;to&nbsp;$71.</a>
The analyst has lowered the rating due to AWR&#8217;s relatively high premium compared to the water utility sector and the view that utilities with elevated premiums continue to witness compression versus value.
While the analyst does not see any fundamental decline in earnings quality or growth and still regard AWR as one of the best-managed water utilities, its 32% premium over the coverage and 11% premium over the water sub-group make it less attractive in light of potential multiple compression.
The premium reflects AWR&#8217;s quality factor, balanced by the analyst&#8217;s tempered view for high premium expansion and anticipation for multiple compression in a higher interest rate environment.
AWR has already benefited from recent regulatory approvals, which are reflected in the analyst&#8217;s forecast, and see few catalysts that would push the EPS projections higher over the next 12 months.

The company, along with other California investor-owned water utilities, was granted permission to postpone its cost of capital filing until 2026, preserving the current 10% authorized ROE for that year.
The analyst&#8217;s model had already factored in a status quo ROE for 2026, but the added certainty is a positive outcome. Additionally, AWR received final approval for its California general rate case settlement.
The analyst expects the company to maintain strong growth, executing consistently. The analyst&#8217;s EPS estimates for 2025, 2026, and 2027 are $3.33, $3.55, and $3.85, respectively (consensus: $3.32, $3.52, $3.81).
While the analyst typically considers high-premium water multiples to be unsustainable compared to electric and gas utilities due to improving growth rates in those sectors and the broader expectation of sustained higher interest rates, ESG trends may still provide support for water utilities.
As traditional ESG favorites like NextEra Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) shift strategies toward more gas-focused investments, water utilities remain, alongside wires-only companies, among the few ESG-friendly options for global ESG funds with U.S. exposure.
If ESG investments move away from NEE and other renewable-focused stocks, water utilities, including AWR, could see a boost from this shift in flows, concluded the analyst.
Price Action: AWR shares are trading lower by 2.77% at $72.44 at the last check Monday.

This means they have to file a report whenever they buy or sell stock.
The STOCK Act, which became law in 2012, requires these reports to be filed within 45 days of the transaction and also mandates monthly disclosures of their financial holdings.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

NextEra Energy Reaffirms Expectations For 2025-2027

Wall Street paused for a breather on Friday, with the S&amp;P 500 index hovering around the flatline at midday trading in New York after a five-day rally that pushed the market to fresh record highs this week. Meanwhile, investor attention shifted to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/forex">forex and gold markets.</a>
The greenback is experiencing its worst weekly performance since July 2023, as President Donald Trump refrained from imposing new tariffs during his first week and escalated pressure on the Federal Reserve, urging the central bank to lower interest rates. The U.S. dollar index – tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – dropped 0.7% on Friday, extending its weekly decline to 1.7%.
Adding to the dollar's downward momentum, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates by 25 basis points to 0.5%, the highest level since 2008, in a move that broadly met expectations.
Gold capitalized on the dollar's weakness and rising tensions between the president and the central bank, marking another week of strong gains and approaching all-time highs. The bullion, tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), was trading at $2,777 per ounce.
On the macro front, S&amp;P Global reported a slowdown in private sector growth in January, as the services sector faced an unexpected setback, despite manufacturing expanding for the first<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43195427/us-services-growth-slows-manufacturing-finally-expands-in-january-inflation-was-broad-based-expert-warns"> time in seven months.</a>
A warning came from the University of Michigan's consumer survey, which downwardly revised the January consumer confidence indicator and pointed to increasing trends of households making purchases in advance to avoid potential price hikes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/43197024/consumer-confidence-declines-as-buying-in-advance-trends-grow">linked to tariffs.</a>
In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) climbed 2.5% following Trump's executive order signed on Thursday, aimed at strengthening U.S. leadership in digital assets.

NextEra Energy Partners, LP To Be Renamed XPLR Infrastructure, LP, Effective Today; Will Begin Trading Under The New Ticker Symbol, "XIFR" On The NYSE On Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2025.

NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) is ready to report its fourth-quarter earnings on Friday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NEE/earnings">before the market opens</a>. Analysts expect the energy giant to report earnings per share (EPS) of 52 cents and revenues of $7.53 billion.
Despite recent setbacks—the company&#8217;s stock is down 4.31% over the past six months and 3.64% year-to-date—NextEra Energy has a lot to prove as it faces increasing competition in the renewable energy space.
JPMorgan&#8217;s Mark Strouse believes that the growth-oriented strategy of NextEra's subsidiary, Nextera Energy Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEP#NYSE">NEP</a>), could help stabilize its long-term outlook, despite challenges with financing and project development. 
Investors should pay attention to cash flow visibility, U.S.-based manufacturing and diversified end markets when considering <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/clean-energy">clean energy stocks</a> in the current environment.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Ahead For Clean Energy?</h2>
NextEra Energy's stock isn&#8217;t the only clean energy stock on a rocky ride lately. Brookfield Renewable Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEP#NYSE">BEP</a>) and Brookfield Renewable Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BEPC#NYSE">BEPC</a>) are two names that investors have been eyeing. JPMorgan maintains an "Overweight" rating on both. The bank has a price target of $28 for BEP and $32 for BEPC by December 2025.
Meanwhile, Enphase Energy Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>), another clean energy player, is expected to continue its growth with a price target of $91, although analysts have reduced the target from a previous $112.
But not all players are in favor—Nextera Energy Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEP#NYSE">NEP</a>), with its reliance on NextEra, remains a bit of a wildcard. With JPMorgan&#8217;s neutral rating and a revised price target of $20 for NEP, it's clear that the market views some caution as warranted.
In contrast, Nextracker Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXT#NASDAQ">NXT</a>), a leader in solar energy, has seen an "Overweight" rating with a target price of $58 by December 2025.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is the Clean Energy Rally Losing Steam?</h2>
Despite these targets, NextEra's recent struggles and broader market conditions, including interest rates and potential delays in new projects, suggest that clean energy stocks may face a bumpy ride ahead. 
Still, with renewable energy's long-term growth prospects and NextEra's vast footprint in solar and wind generation, there's reason to believe that the utility will continue to be a cornerstone in any clean energy-focused portfolio.
As NextEra prepares to deliver its fourth-quarter results, all eyes will be on whether the company can deliver on expectations.
Could a surprise earnings beat turn the tide for NextEra? Despite its diversified business model and massive scale in renewable energy, NextEra Energy's short-term prospects remain tied to broader market dynamics at play.

Power grids across the South face an extraordinary challenge Tuesday as snow blankets regions typically prepared for summer heat waves, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/43036258/polar-vortex-brings-winters-coldest-air-for-trumps-inauguration-day-what-it-means-for-utilities-retailers-energy-stocks">not winter whiteouts.</a>
What Happened A fierce winter system has upended daily life from Texas through the Carolinas, forcing Gulf Coast weather forecasters to issue their region&#8217;s first-ever snowstorm alert, CNN <a href="url-would-go-here">reports</a>.
The system&#8217;s power shocked the region Tuesday. Streets from Houston, Texas, through Louisiana, disappeared under white blankets, reaching six inches deep in some areas. Thermometers plunged into territory more familiar to northern states, driving wind chills into single digits across Texas.
Emergency declarations spread across Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama, Florida and Mississippi as the storm intensified. The Gulf Coast, better known for hurricane preparation, now faces winter conditions that threaten to paralyze communities for days, CNN reports.
The storm&#8217;s intensity caught many areas off guard. Snow accumulation and icy conditions transformed southern highways into hazard zones. Weather experts warn the cold snap could shatter records dating back more than a century.

Why It Matters: Local power providers mobilize resources to protect vital infrastructure. The scale of the response reflects the region&#8217;s unusual winter challenge.
Officials closed roads across five southern states, emptying highways and forcing residents indoors. &#8220;Most of us haven&#8217;t experienced this combination of bitter cold and significant snow ever in our lifetime,&#8221; Louisiana climatologist Jay Grymes told CNN
The storm&#8217;s reach shut down major transportation arteries. Both Houston airports suspended flights, while New Orleans saw nearly all air traffic halt by morning. Port operations froze, and even space exploration paused as NASA&#8217;s Texas operations suspended work through Wednesday.
School systems from Texas to Florida shifted to remote learning or closed entirely. Atlanta officials warned of road conditions deteriorating rapidly as the system pushes east.
Several major utilities are positioning themselves as the winter storm impacts their service territories:
<ul>
<li>CenterPoint Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CNP#NYSE">CNP</a>), a major utility provider headquartered in Houston, Texas, focuses on electric transmission and distribution in the state and natural gas distribution across several U.S. regions.</li>
<li>Southern Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SO#NYSE">SO</a>), a prominent southeastern energy provider, specializes in electric power generation, transmission, and distribution, with operations in multiple states.</li>
<li>Entergy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETR#NYSE">ETR</a>) serves customers in Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas, providing electric power generation, transmission, and distribution services.</li>
<li>Duke Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DUK#NYSE">DUK</a>) operates across the Carolinas, Florida, and parts of the Midwest, delivering electric power generation, transmission, and distribution services.</li>
<li>NextEra Energy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) primarily serves Florida through its subsidiary Florida Power &amp; Light and is a leading investor in renewable energy, focusing on wind and solar power.</li>
</ul>
Natural gas futures were down over 5% at the time of publication Tuesday.
The rare winter assault comes as utility stocks show renewed strength, with the sector seeing increased investor interest amid growing power demands from data centers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/sector-etfs/25/01/42974006/utilities-rebound-as-ai-powers-energy-demand-3-etfs-to-watch">and AI operations.</a>

What the Options Market Tells Us About NextEra Energy

Utilities, the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s biggest laggard in 2023, staged a remarkable rebound in 2024, fueled by surging electricity demand driven by artificial intelligence, electrification, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/utilities">and decarbonization trends.</a>
Among the beneficiaries of this momentum are ETFs with exposure to utility stocks like GE Vernova (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GEV#NYSE">GEV</a>), Vistra Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VST#NYSE">VST</a>) and NextEra Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>), which may reap the benefits of the growing energy needs of data centers.
Three ETFs that can cash in on this trend include the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLU#NYSE">XLU</a>), Vanguard Utilities ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VPU#NYSE">VPU</a>), and Fidelity MSCI Utilities Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUTY#NYSE">FUTY</a>), each offering a way to invest in a bunch of companies supporting the energy-intensive operations of data centers.

The Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund, with an expense ratio of a mere 0.09% and assets of $16.39 billion under management, holds promise. NextEra,&nbsp;Constellation Energy&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>), and Vistra are among the top holdings of this fund, which mirrors the Utilities Select Sector Index as a benchmark.

Why Utilities Are Thriving
We often hear the phrase &#8220;data is the new oil&#8221; these days, and data centers, the backbone of the digital world, are often overlooked as power consumers. Supporting real-time communication, data storage, and cloud-based operations to run technologies like smartphones and connected appliances requires massive electricity, and there is one sector that data centers rely on for power &#8211; utility providers.
According to the International Energy Agency, data centers and data transmission networks comprise 1%-1.5% of global electricity use.
The increasing integration of AI, which relies on energy-intensive computations, further boosts this demand. Power demand growth for utilities—historically stagnant at 1%-2% annually—is now expected to climb to about 6-8% annually for the next decade, driven by these technological trends, <a href="https://www.fidelity.com/learning-center/trading-investing/outlook-utilities">reported </a>Fidelity Investments.
Utilities are traditionally a defensive sector with stability and lower sensitivity to economic fluctuations, as evident from &#8220;a lower beta relative to other sectors to the broad market,&#8221; per Fidelity.
These factors appealed to investors during a dynamic year. According to a Deloitte&nbsp;<a href="https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/insights/industry/technology/technology-media-and-telecom-predictions/2025/genai-power-consumption-creates-need-for-more-sustainable-data-centers.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a>, the annual power consumption of AI data centers&nbsp;is anticipated to increase 10 times from 2022 and hit 90 terawatt-hours by 2026. The utility sector and ETFs exposed to it appear to be on an upward trajectory.
