Utilities - Independent Power Producers, equal-weighted, based at 200 S&P 500, same base, same start trailing 12-month earnings per share rising falling

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 9 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks

Is Utilities - Independent Power Producers outperforming S&P 500?

Over 13 weeks the gap is a shortfall of 24.6%. 0 of 9 covered companies currently beat the S&P 500 on Mansfield relative strength, so leadership inside the sector is selective.

The central tension: the companies with the most scale are not necessarily the companies creating the most change.

Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

Bottom line

4-Factor Sector Score

An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.

Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Constellation Energy Corporation has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 81.1% evidence confidence.
Digi Power X Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

Price and relative strength

It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability

NRG Energy, Inc. has the highest Revenue among the 10 Utilities - Independent Power Producers companies compared here, at $32,384 million. Constellation Energy Corporation is next at $29,867 million. Talen Energy Corporation has the highest Revenue growth at 66.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. 7 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: NRG Energy, Inc. is the scale leader at $32,384 million, 8.4% ahead of Constellation Energy Corporation. Talen Energy Corporation's growth is 66.3% from a $3,320 million base, with 15 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

Gap8.4% versus #2 · Constellation Energy Corporation

Coverage7/10 companies · 149 observations

Investor read: NRG Energy, Inc. is the scale benchmark; Talen Energy Corporation is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.

This conclusion weakens if: NRG Energy, Inc.'s growth falls below Talen Energy Corporation's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.

Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Return On Capital Employed

Vistra Corp. has the highest ROCE among the 10 Utilities - Independent Power Producers companies compared here, at 5%. Constellation Energy Corporation is next at 3.6%. Digi Power X Inc. has the highest ROCE change at +10.9 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 10 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Vistra Corp. leads ROCE at 5%, 1.4 percentage points above Constellation Energy Corporation. Digi Power X Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +10.9 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

LeaderVistra Corp. · 5%
Gap38.9% versus #2 · Constellation Energy Corporation
Persistence4/8 recent comparable periods

Investor read: Vistra Corp. sets the level benchmark; use the change leader as an inflection watch only after another comparable report confirms it.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current roce change signal.

ROCE asks how much operating return the business earns on the capital employed. Direction matters, but a single exceptional year should not be mistaken for durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality

Vistra Corp. has the lowest PEG among the 10 Utilities - Independent Power Producers companies compared here, at 0.38×. Constellation Energy Corporation is next at 1.14×. Digi Power X Inc. has the lowest P/E at 2.25×, so level and change sit with different companies. 2 of 10 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.

What the numbers say: Vistra Corp. has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.38×, 66.7% below Constellation Energy Corporation. Only 2 of 10 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.

This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.

PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

What can make this comparison misleading?

This Utilities - Independent Power Producers comparison names 5 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 10 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. 1 of the 5 ranked sections has fewer than three usable current readings. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.

Keep these limits visible

  • A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
  • A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
  • The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
  • An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
  • Thin comparisons: Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.
