According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, CEG is a Neutral.

The score is led by solid profitability and a constructive earnings outlook with strong multi-year growth targets and capital return plans. Offsetting this are weak/volatile cash-flow quality, currently soft technical momentum, and a demanding valuation (high P/E with a low dividend yield).
