On July 6, Constellation Energy rose 3.15% in regular trading, trading at $242.43/share, with turnover of $129 million, significantly outperforming the broader Electric Utilities sector.

The rally is attributed to a series of positive developments continuing to gain traction. The company recently filed applications with the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission to renew operating licenses for its Ginna and Nine Mile Point Unit 1 nuclear reactors in New York, extending operations into the 2050s. Additionally, the renewal of the company's Zero Emission Credit program is projected to save electricity consumers up to $50 billion by mid-century. Furthermore, the company signed a long-term nuclear power purchase agreement with Walmart involving approximately 176 megawatts of wholesale power supply from its Dresden nuclear facility in Illinois, with contracts spanning two 15-year periods beginning in 2029.

Within the Electric Utilities sector, the overall performance was weak. Among peers, Oklo Inc. down 1.51%, NextEra down 0.83%, Duke down 1.44%, American Electric Power down 0.71%, PG&E Corp down 0.32%.
