GE Vernova Inc. stock is rated Sell due to extreme overvaluation despite strong market positioning and product mix.

I initiate coverage of GE Vernova Inc. with a Strong Buy rating ahead of Q3 2025 earnings, due to robust power and electrification demand led by U.S. data centers and grid buildouts. Power margin hit 16.4% and electrification 14.6% in Q2, with electrification revenue projected to increase by 20% YOY in Q3. I believe this trend could persist well into 2026. From a visibility perspective, the power backlog reached 55 GW in Q2 and management guided upwards of 60 GW by year-end. Furthermore, electrification booked $3.3B of equipment orders (1.5× revenue).
