Constellation Energy Corp (NASDAQ:CEG) has been a bright star in the energy sector, delivering nearly 100% year-to-date gains in 2024.
However, a 9.32% dip over the past month has left investors questioning whether the stock's rally has dimmed or if it's merely recharging for another surge.
The AI-Powered Future of Energy
The rise of artificial intelligence is electrifying the demand for energy like never before. Data centers, the backbone of AI operations, are expected to drive a staggering 160% increase in electricity needs by the end of this decade. For power companies, this isn't just a statistic — it's a lucrative opportunity.
Constellation Energy, with its expansive nuclear portfolio, is particularly well-positioned to capitalize on this trend. Shahriar Pourreza of Guggenheim predicts AI-driven demand could lead tech giants to partner with Constellation, as Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT) did in September.
Such partnerships could significantly bolster the company's financials, driving its stock price to a potential $328 by 2025, according to Guggenheim.

Short-Term Technical Challenges
Despite its long-term prospects, Constellation Energy stock faces technical headwinds in the near term.

The stock is trading below key moving averages:
Eight-day SMA: $227.19 (bearish signal)
20-day SMA: $236.95 (bearish signal)
50-day SMA: $244.07 (bearish signal)
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator stands at a negative 5.22, further emphasizing bearish momentum. However, with a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 39.22, the stock is approaching oversold territory, potentially setting the stage for a rebound.
Balancing Vision and Valuation
For investors, the real question is whether Constellation Energy can navigate its short-term struggles to fully capitalize on AI's energy boom. While the stock's current dip may offer an attractive entry point for long-term believers, caution is warranted given its technical signals.
With AI poised to reshape the energy landscape, Constellation Energy's nuclear assets could be its ticket to sustained growth. Whether it can overcome near-term pressures remains a story worth watching.
