Vistra: Cogentrix And Meta Can Offset A Softer ERCOT Outlook
Vistra (VST) remains a Buy, offering diversified power generation, robust profitability, and resilience amid evolving power market fundamentals. Q2 adjusted EBITDA surged over 30%, driven by strong Texas and PJM generation, with management guiding 2026 results at or above midpoint. Cogentrix acquisition and Meta contracts are expected to offset ERCOT weakness, though the deal increases leverage and dilutes recent share buybacks.

Vista Gold: Clear Path Forward, Wait For Better Entry Point
Vista Gold is developing the Mt. Todd project in Australia, targeting production by 2030 with key milestones over the next two years. I maintain a 'Hold' rating, as recent feasibility changes and elevated gold prices suggest VGZ trades near fair value despite attractive upside at higher spot prices. Operational modifications—reducing processing capacity to 15k tpd and raising cut-off grades—aim to improve margins and marketability but introduce execution and regulatory risks.
