AES finally pushed past the $11 price ceiling for the first time in a decade, with far more shares trading than usual, showing strong new interest. A 50-50 deal with TotalEnergies lowers risk and brings cash for Caribbean projects, while an extended hydrogen tax break improves profits on future green plants. The price could pause soon, so buying around $11-11.30 may set up a run to $13.70-14 by late summer, helped by an August project update.

Primary drivers

  • Jump above $11 with strong trading activity hints the upward trend is starting.
  • Half-and-half deal with TotalEnergies cuts risk and funds 10 GW of Caribbean projects.
  • Longer hydrogen tax credit should make the companys future green plants more profitable.
  • Steady utility status is sought in a weak market, and strong demand readings back interest.

How it played out

Lyra published AES at $11.22 on 2025-07-06 with 15% expected growth and a $12.57 target.
