Vistra (VST) stock jumps nearly 7% after Meta nuclear pact — what traders watch next
Vistra shares surged 6.6% to $180.18 Thursday after Meta signed long-term nuclear power agreements covering 2,609 megawatts from Vistra’s PJM plants. Wall Street’s focus remains on a $2.25 billion debt deal set to close Jan. 22. UBS and Scotiabank raised price targets, while Jefferies cut theirs, citing PJM market uncertainty. Vistra recently agreed to buy Cogentrix Energy for $4.7 billion, adding 10 gas plants.
