XCEL ENERGY INC (XEL)

Sector rotations often begin like a bag of microwave popcorn, quiet at first with only a few names showing strength before broader momentum builds, and early signs of that pattern may be emerging in the energy complex. Xcel Energy (XEL) appears to be one of those first kernels, breaking out of a multi-top Point and Figure base while moving forward with a battery storage project in partnership with Form Energy. The planned installation of two 1,000 MWh iron air systems at retiring coal sites introduces a differentiated approach to grid storage, potentially positioning XEL for increased relevance in ESG aligned strategies.

In today’s edition of the Daily Stock Report we are going to highlight Dye & Durham Ltd (DND.TO), a Canadian Small Cap Computer Software name which has been in the news of late.
