Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 66% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published September 12, 2025
GE Vernova's price has been strong because lots more people are buying than usual, but the business results still need to catch up. HSBC set a 580 price estimate (Hold). Profits per share could be up about 474% compared to last year, so investors are testing a turning point. We would start small near the suggested buying range and watch execution in wind and grid. If the price slips under ~600 and momentum fades, we'd step aside.
Primary drivers
- Profits per share could jump about 474% versus last year if plans deliver
- Lots more people are buying than usual; recent average price rising steadily
- HSBC raised its price estimate to 580 and kept a Hold rating for now
- Onshore wind and power grid businesses are recovering after a tough period
