  • WEC Energy Group Shares Near $110 Amid Modest Undervaluation and Infrastructure Investment
    February 1, 2026, 2:35 PM EST. WEC Energy Group (NYSE: WEC) closed at $110.67, marking a 3.94% rise over 30 days and a 15.29% total shareholder return over one year. The stock trades close to its fair value estimate of $120.21, signaling about 7.9% undervaluation. Key drivers include $28 billion in planned capital expenditures for grid modernization, aligning with federal infrastructure priorities and supporting steady earnings. The current price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio stands at 21.2x, slightly above the peer utility average (20.9x) but below the fair P/E of 23.1x. Risks include potential regulatory challenges, heavy capex impact on returns, and slower project execution. Investors must weigh the modest premium against WEC's quality and growth outlook amid evolving energy infrastructure demands.
