France vows stable electricity bills in 2026 — but new charges could still push costs up

France vows stable electricity bills in 2026 — but new charges could still push costs up

France will scrap its ARENH nuclear pricing scheme on Jan. 1, giving EDF more freedom to sell nuclear power. The government says regulated electricity tariffs should remain broadly stable in 2026 and 2027. A new mechanism will claw back excess EDF nuclear revenues above set thresholds, but officials say it is unlikely to trigger soon. Consumer group UFC-Que Choisir warns a separate policy could add about 50 euros to annual household energy bills.

  • GoDaddy Shares Trade at Discount Despite Strong Cash Flow and Growth
    March 22, 2026, 6:56 AM EDT. GoDaddy (GDDY) stock is trading 33% below its 3-month high, facing pressure after 2026 revenue guidance missed expectations and concerns over AI competition. Yet, the company shows solid fundamentals with 8.3% revenue growth, robust free cash flow projected at $1.8 billion in 2026, and a cash flow yield of 13.8%, significantly above the S&P median. Operating margins stand strong at 23%, and valuation ratios remain attractive with a price-to-earnings ratio of 13.1 versus the S&P's 23.4. Historical market downturns hit GDDY shares hard-down up to 47% during Covid selloff-highlighting risk despite underlying strength. Investors attracted to cash-generating tech stocks may find GoDaddy appealing for growth or shareholder returns through dividends or buybacks.
