$SO shines with a strong Q1 earnings growth of 20% in adjusted EPS! 🌟 But is it the right time to buy? 🤔 ⚡️ Dividend hike marks 24th consecutive annual increase 📈 Outpaced utility peers with a 15.7% share price rise over six months 🔍 Yet, tariffs, environmental liabilities, and interest expenses loom large Investors should wait for a more opportune entry point instead of adding stock to their portfolios. 👉 https://www.zacks.com/stock/news/2573192/heres-why-holding-southern-company-is-justified-for-now?cid=sm-stocktwits-2-2573192-body-1253&ADID=SYND_STOCKTWITS_TWEET_2_2573192_BODY_1253
