Bulls say / Bears say

Vistra’s announcement of two new natural gas units at its Permian Basin plant will add 860 MW of capacity, helping the company meet record-high electricity demand in Texas through 2026 (Reuters).
Since January 2024, Vistra’s shares have soared 450%, far outpacing the S&P 500’s 42% gain, demonstrating strong investor confidence under CEO James Burke (Reuters).
Under Burke, Vistra has acquired seven gas plants for $1.9 billion and Energy Harbor for $6.8 billion, boosting its generation mix with nuclear and gas assets, and expanding its retail customer base by millions (Reuters).
Environmental and landowner groups have raised concerns about potential groundwater contamination and increased seismic activity associated with CO₂ injection in the Permian Basin. These issues could delay or increase costs for Vistra’s planned carbon capture and storage projects (Reuters).
Natural gas price volatility in Texas has spiked during recent extreme weather events, with U.S. natural gas jumping over 10% during the February freeze. This volatility may squeeze margins for Vistra’s gas-fired generation assets (Reuters).
New U.S. methane regulations targeting oil and gas could significantly raise compliance costs for Vistra’s natural gas operations, potentially pressuring profitability in an already low-margin segment (Reuters).
