$SO Southern Company is a regulated utility with a massive bet on nuclear power (Vogtle plants). The projects are now online but were plagued by delays and cost overruns. The future is stable, regulated growth, but the balance sheet is stretched. A yield play.

$SO $PPL $DUK $SPY $KRE How right you are, but too many Americans don't believe in not buying on debt, much less an emergency savings. It's laughable how high CC/household debt is right now, and how low savings accounts are. I just don't think I will have any empathy for bag holders and those struggling with debt if things play out negatively.

$SO beats Q2 — but is the rally justified? Utility sales grew, helping Southern Company top both earnings and revenue estimates. But higher costs and soft residential demand are squeezing margins.

$SO beats earnings but misses on profit vs. last year — what’s the story here? 🤔 The Southern Company posted Q2 EPS of 91 cents, topping the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 87 cents, thanks to higher utility revenues 📈. However, increased expenses and milder weather dragged the profit below last year’s $1.09.
