  • TransAlta (TSX:TA) Valuation Reviewed Amid Share Price Decline
    January 23, 2026, 11:41 PM EST. TransAlta (TSX:TA) has seen its share price fall nearly 28% over 90 days, currently trading at CA$17.41, prompting fresh valuation scrutiny.

The stock trades at 2.1 times sales, exceeding a fair 1.0 times benchmark but below sector peers, raising questions about growth justification. Risks include potential disruptions in data center contracts and carbon pricing changes.
