Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG) is an American independent power production firm that relies on nuclear, wind, solar, and other sources to generate electricity. Its shares are up by 37% over the past year and by 25% since Cramer discussed them in January 2025. Between mid-February and early April, Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG)’s stock dipped by 46%. Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG)’s shares had also dipped in January 2025 after it was reported that the firm was interested in buying a natural gas company for $30 billion. Its shares also closed 5% lower on March 11th, which was the day a Bureau of Labor Statistics report showed that electricity prices had dipped by 0.7% month-on-month in February. In January 2025, Cramer discussed the impact of excess optimism on Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG)’s shares:
“Right now, there are two utilities that generate a lot of nuclear power, Vistra and Constellation Energy, the latter of which just got a big contract with the feds, $1 billion, to expand a nuclear site. The big utilities are frantically trying to meet power demand generated by the data center revolution. I think these two stocks are now way ahead of themselves. They trade like they’ll be able to build many nuclear reactors next to the currently approved ones because siting won’t be difficult.
“Oh, that’s true but building them will be. It takes ages to construct one of these things, big overruns. Constellation’s reopening a decommissioned Three Mile Island plant with Microsoft signing a contract for 20 years worth of power. That does sound great, but I think the process of restarting a dead nuclear power plant won’t be easy. But hey, at least Constellation and Vistra’s real, even if their stocks have gotten overextended.”
