Three energy stocks with completely different paths to profit. Energy stocks are finally getting their moment. Geopolitical tensions keep oil elevated. AI data centers are creating unprecedented electricity demand. Hyperscalers are desperate for reliable power sources. Nuclear energy is in high demand for the first time in decades. But here's the thing: there's no single path to profit in energy right now. Three companies stand out, and they succeed in completely different ways. One is a nuclear powerhouse benefiting from AI data center contracts. One is a stable midstream operator generating 5.7% yield. One is a hybrid utility that owns both regulated assets and fast-growing renewables. If you're building an energy position, understanding these three different paths matters. Constellation Energy: the nuclear play. Nuclear energy is having a significant moment in the US and beyond. Constellation Energy owns the largest fleet of nuclear power plants in the country. Nuclear's ability to meet growing power needs is currently unmatched. Unlike solar or wind, nuclear provides reliable baseload power 24/7, which is exactly what hyperscalers building massive data centers need. That demand is translating to contracts. Constellation has secured agreements with companies like Microsoft and Walmart to supply power. These are long-term commitments that will drive revenue and earnings growth for years. Here's what's interesting: Constellation shares are down more than 25% in 2026, despite having massive tailwinds. The stock has been weighed down by a combination of factors, including the Calpine acquisition, institutional sell-offs, and broader backlash against data center buildouts. After rising more than 500% over the past five years, some investors are taking profits. That's created an opening. The company pays a modest dividend (0.59% yield), but don't mistake this for a sleepy utility. Management anticipates earnings-per-share growth of 20% through 2029. That's substantial growth for a utility company. The company has also authorized a $5 billion share buyback program and anticipates free cash flow exceeding $8 billion through 2027. New long-term power purchase agreements are setting Constellation up to dominate the AI-powered electricity market for the foreseeable future. You're buying nuclear exposure to AI data center demand at a discount after the stock has been sold. Enterprise Product Partners: the steady income play. For investors interested in a boring but consistent business, Enterprise Product Partners fits perfectly. EPD is one of the largest midstream operators in the country and operates on a fee-based model for moving, storing, and processing natural gas, NGLs, crude, and petrochemicals. That business model matters because it largely insulates the company from daily swings in oil and gas prices. EPD gets paid for moving things through pipes, not for owning commodities. That makes the cash flows predictable regardless of whether oil is $60 or $100 per barrel. The yield is attractive. EPD offers approximately 5.7% yield, which is substantial for an energy company. The stock's current forward P/E ratio is around 14, and its PEG is 1.58, suggesting the stock is fairly valued or potentially undervalued. Operationally, the company is executing well. In the first quarter of 2026, EPD generated $2.7 billion in EBITDA, a 10% increase from the prior year. Management called it "an exceptional quarter." In the near term, the company expects to split discretionary free cash flow between share buybacks and debt reduction. The strong balance sheet and reduced capital spending in 2026 should free up more cash for further buybacks and distribution hikes. EPD is also well-positioned to capitalize on AI-driven demand for natural gas and LNG exports. So you get both income today and growth visibility for the future. This is the pick if you want steady, reliable cash flow with the potential for modestly growing distributions. NextEra Energy: the hybrid growth play. NextEra Energy might actually be the best-positioned energy company to capture AI's power needs. The company is a hybrid: it owns Florida Power & Light, a traditional regulated utility company that provides incredibly reliable cash flow. On the other side, it's growing its renewables division with an increasingly robust backlog of data center contracts. That combination is powerful. The regulated utility (FP&L) provides stable, predictable earnings that fund growth investments in renewables. The renewables division captures the upside from AI data center buildout. Together, they give you both a moat and a growth engine. The execution is solid. First-quarter earnings per share grew 10% year-over-year to $1.09. Management expects at least 8% annual adjusted EPS growth through 2032. That's consistent, durable growth from a large utility, which is rare. The dividend is modest at 2.83% yield, but the growth outlook justifies a premium valuation. You're not buying NextEra for income. You're buying it for the combination of stable utility cash flow and renewable growth. The stock does trade at a slight premium to the market, but for a company with 8% earnings growth visibility through 2032, that's reasonable. Three different energy stories. These three companies excel in different areas of the energy industry. They have different risk profiles. They offer different reward paths. Constellation is the growth story - a utility benefiting from AI data center demand with 20% EPS growth through 2029. You're buying growth at a discount after the stock pullback. Enterprise is the income story - a stable midstream operator with 5.7% yield and modest growth visibility. You're buying reliable cash flow with room for distribution increases. NextEra is the hybrid story - combining regulated utility stability with renewable growth. You're buying 8% EPS growth with the security of a regulated utility foundation. All three benefit from AI's insatiable energy demand. But they benefit in completely different ways. Building an energy position. If you're adding energy exposure, the question isn't which one is "best." The question is which path matches your investment goals. Want growth? Constellation at a 25% discount after its run-up offers 20% EPS growth potential. Want income? Enterprise's 5.7% yield with modest growth provides reliable cash flow. Want a mix? NextEra's combination of utility stability and renewable growth offers the best balance for long-term investors. You don't have to pick just one. Each offers something different. Sizing them based on your conviction about each path makes sense. Energy is having a real moment, not just hype. These three companies are positioned to profit from that moment in different ways.

The easy way to get and use retailer data. What are the top three things brands want from a retail partner? The first two are obvious: more orders and the best possible shelf presence. The third is perhaps less obvious: data, information about consumers, and demand insights that can inform product development, planning, manufacturing, and promotions. Three must-haves that increase the value of retail data. Individual retailer data is insightful, but to truly realize its value as an input into product development, planning, category management, and other processes, it must become "triple A": * Aggregated with data from the other retailers who carry the brand * Augmented with contextual information (environmental, socio-economic, geopolitical, and more) such as weather, social sentiment, inflation, and regional demographics * Automatically integrated into the applications that support business processes and decision-making for planning, product development, manufacturing, category management, and so on Three challenges to bringing retail data to triple-a levels. The large retailers and e-tailers - such as the Walmarts, Targets, and Amazons - of this world tend to share consumer, demand, and category data only via end-user portals. This creates several challenges for brand owners: * Unproductive and inconsistent: This happens when a brand has a person generate reports to extract data manually for each retailer. It is a slow process that is potentially exposed to human error or variation as different people may create the reports slightly differently. * Unharmonized and breakable: Each retailer may present and define what, on the surface, seems to be the same metric in a different way. Brands need to bring data to a common denominator to perform aggregation and augmentation, but harmonizing data across retailers is hard work and typically requires software tools to perform mappings and transformations. Variations in the reports extracted manually for each retailer break the mappings. * Impossible to integrate: Reports are suitable for decision-making but cannot be integrated into business applications to support and automate processes. Three technologies to fix the challenges. Many brand owners have developed or purchased bot technology to simulate human interaction with retailer portals and automate the data extraction/report generation process. This broadly addresses the first challenge. Applications like e2open Demand Signal Management and its Retail Adaptor can address the first and second challenges. It helps brands acquire retailers' data automatically and harmonize that data with feeds from their entire retail network, aggregate it, augment it, and use it for analytical insights. Brands can perform their analyses directly in e2open Demand Signal Management and benefit from the thousands of predefined KPIs, reports, and dashboards synchronized across retailers. The third challenge and requirement - enabling automated integration of demand insights into the business applications supporting planning, product development, category management, and other functional processes - needs a different type of connectivity. This is typically provided via application programming interfaces (APIs). The great data hunger. For a while, retailers such as Kroger, Costco, and Walgreens have offered collaborative data gateways for their suppliers. Last year, Walmart announced the launch of a new commercial offering, Walmart Luminate, a data platform providing brand owners with a shared view of shopper behavior, customer perception insights based on primary research, and trends in online, in-store, and mobile performance. The fee-based platform also exposes a set of Channel Performance APIs that enable brand owners to take Walmart data directly into their analytics tools and applications to make better decisions, streamline processes, and increase data security. According to an article by Jack Neff published in Ad Age on June 15, 2021, offering data for a fee can be a lucrative business proposition. In fact, this activity can drive as much as $1 million worth of revenue per $1 billion in sales. Increased supply and demand volatility makes brand owners hungrier for data than ever before. With such conditions, other major retailers may follow the Walmart example and start to offer access to their data via platforms with open APIs. When that may happen remains to be seen - but E2open has some great news now! The great news. e2open's Retail Adaptor is now ready and tested to connect with Walmart's Luminate Channel Performance APIs. For brands already using e2open Demand Signal Management, the Retail Adaptor's instant connection to Walmart's Luminate APIs provides an easy-to-deploy and easy-to-manage mechanism. Using e2open's Retail Adaptor, companies can get a cohesive view of their entire retail network - Walmart and all. Here's more great news: Since e2open Demand Signal Management provides its own APIs, integrating harmonized, aggregated, and augmented cross-retailer data into business processes is now entirely possible and can be fully automated.
