Here's a look at the Benzinga Stock Whisper Index for the week ending July 11:
Intuit Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NASDAQ">INTU</a>): The owner of Quickbooks and TurboTax finds its way back on the Stock Whisper Index for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/06/45938888/benzingas-stock-whisper-index-5-stocks-investors-secretly-monitor-but-dont-talk-about-yet-69">second straight month</a>. Investors are showing strong interest in the company once again with shares near all-time highs. One reason for the increased attention is optimism from analysts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/INTU/analyst-ratings">covering the stock</a>. BMO maintained an Outperform rating and raised the price target from $820 to $870 and Morgan Stanley maintained an Overweight rating and raised the price target from $785 to $900. Another reason could be the passing of the "One Big Beautiful Bill." The bill will add new tax cuts and changes and also eliminates some free IRS filing tools. These could see customers flocking to TurboTax to make sure they get all the latest tax tips and breaks come tax filing time next year.

The deal could be worth up to $15 billion and would give AstraZeneca the rights to the drug. Bloomberg said other drug companies are in talks with Summit. Ivonescimab has show lower risks of disease progression or death when compared to Merck's Keytruda. The increased interest in AstraZeneca comes ahead of second-quarter financial results set for July 29. The company has missed analyst estimates for earnings per share in five of the last six quarters, while beating analyst estimates for revenue in four of the last five quarters. Investors could be anticipating strong financial results and/or be excited in a potential partnership with Summit.

NextEra Energy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>): Readers showed strong interest in the energy company during the week. The company is one of many in the clean energy sector that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46173316/trumps-big-bill-rocks-clean-energy-stocks-except-rooftop-solar">could see pressure</a> from the "Big Beautiful Bill" that rolls back some incentives for the sector. NextEra could also stand out with their presence in the nuclear energy sector which is getting a renewed push going forward. Investors could also be excited ahead of second-quarter financial results set for July 23. The company has beaten analyst estimates for earnings per share in eight of the last 10 quarters. The company has missed analyst estimates for revenue in five straight quarters. Investors will be hoping for a better quarter and a double beat this time around as the future remains less certain with the passage of the Big Beautiful Bill.

Smart Money Is Betting Big In NEE Options

After President Donald Trump signed the &#8216;Big Beautiful Bill,&#8217; which reduced incentives for solar and wind power projects, Cathie Wood&#8217;s Ark Invest is making a strong case for nuclear energy, arguing it could become the most cost-effective power source — even as solar has long held that title.
What Happened: The newly enacted bill delivers a significant blow to renewable energy, phasing out critical investment and production tax credits that have been instrumental in the expansion of wind and solar industries since 1992 and 2005, respectively.
Meanwhile, Trump clarified that the U.S. will rely on oil, gas, coal and nuclear to meet its growing energy needs, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/03/trump-one-big-beautiful-bill-oil-gas-coal-solar-wind-ira-tax-incentive-repeal.html">according</a> to a CNBC report.
Amid this, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45541408/cathie-woods-ark-invest-says-nuclear-energy-could-overtake-solar-as-cheapest-power-source-heres-a-list-of-nuclear-energy-linked-etfs-to-consider">Ark Invest is championing nuclear power</a>. In a recent research note, Sam Korus, Director of Research for Autonomous Technology and Robotics at Ark, contends that despite historical cost challenges, nuclear energy&#8217;s high utilization rates fundamentally alter its cost-competitiveness.
While solar plants typically operate at capacity utilization rates in the low 20%, nuclear plants boast over 80% utilization. This key distinction, when factored in, positions nuclear to potentially outcompete solar on a cost-per-watt basis.
Korus acknowledges solar&#8217;s continued cost decline but points to substantial logistical hurdles, such as the vast land requirements (estimated at 71.4 million acres) and complex real estate negotiations, which could impede large-scale solar deployment and necessitate alternative baseload sources like nuclear.
The tax bill states that only projects commencing construction within 12 months of the bill&#8217;s enactment will receive an exception, creating an urgent 2.5-year window for completion.

Why It Matters: As the Trump administration, along with Ark&#8217;s research, sees nuclear energy as a potential beneficiary of the recent policy changes, here is a list of nuclear energy stocks that investors could consider.

This Is What Whales Are Betting On NextEra Energy

Clean energy stocks reacted on Monday after President Donald Trump's new spending bill introduced a tax on wind and solar projects that use components made in China and accelerated the phase-out of tax credits compared to earlier versions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46166058/elon-musk-birthday-trump-tax-bill-economy">of the legislation.</a>
The Details: Shares of major companies dropped, with NextEra Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>)—the largest U.S. energy developer—down 4%, and solar firms like Array Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARRY#NASDAQ">ARRY</a>) Enphase Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) and Nextracker, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NXT#NASDAQ">NXT</a>) declining between 4% and 9%.

The Senate is preparing to vote on the bill, which would eliminate the two main tax incentives for solar and wind projects that begin operations after 2027, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/30/solar-stocks-fall-as-trump-bill-taxes-components-from-china.html">CNBC</a>. 
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, criticized the bill on X, calling it "utterly insane and destructive" and warning it would destroy American jobs and harm the country's strategic interests while favoring older industries over emerging ones.
Earlier versions of the bill were more favorable to clean energy, allowing projects started before 2027 to qualify for investment and production tax credits. The newest version of the bill also imposes a tax on solar and wind projects that begin after 2027 if they include Chinese-made components.
Despite the overall negative impact, some areas benefited: rooftop solar companies saw gains, with Sunrun, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>) shares rising over 7% and SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEDG#NASDAQ">SEDG</a>) up more than 3%. 
The bill appears to preserve tax credits for leased rooftop systems through the end of 2027, a change from previous drafts.&nbsp;
First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) stock also rose by more than 8%, as the legislation seems to maintain manufacturer credits for components and products. 
Why It Matters: GLJ Research analyst Gordon L. Johnson II recently downgraded Sunrun&#8217;s stock from Hold to Sell, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/downgrades/25/06/45981680/sunrun-receives-downgrade-as-analyst-warns-business-model-relies-on-inflated-system-values-for-tax-credits" target="_blank" rel="noopener">stating that the</a> Senate&#8217;s spending bill poses a potential existential threat to Sunrun and other industry players.
The analyst said that the only thing keeping Sunrun afloat has been its ability to securitize loans or power purchase agreements (PPAs), bringing in new funds to cover gaps between actual and reported O&amp;M expenses. 
Should the Senate bill pass and Sunrun and its competitors lose the ability to securitize, Johnson warned the company would quickly become unable to service its systems, with sponsor equity investors likely to exit rapidly.

Trump's Big Bill Rocks Clean Energy Stocks, Except Rooftop Solar

Investment advisor and CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, Ross Gerber, has sharply criticized the new tax cut bill &#8211; One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which was passed by the House and awaits pending approval from the Senate.
What Happened: In an X post, Gerber labeled it &#8220;the big ugly bill,&#8221; accusing it of sabotaging critical advancements in clean energy and transportation while conveniently sidestepping a notorious tax loophole known as carried interest, which he branded &#8220;the biggest tax scam out there.&#8221;
The &#8220;One Big Beautiful Bill Act,&#8221; currently under consideration in the 119th U.S. Congress, has sparked debate with its proposed amendments to tax codes and energy policies.
Gerber, whose firm manages a <a href="https://www.gerberkawasaki.com/">$3.36 billion</a> portfolio with a strong focus on technology, clean energy, and transportation as of Dec. 31, 2024, argues that the bill threatens to dismantle key provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act.
That earlier legislation, enacted in 2022, has catalyzed $321 billion in private investment across 2,369 U.S. clean-energy projects, according to a June 5, 2025, <a href="https://impactalpha.com/the-ugly-details-of-the-big-beautiful-bills-damage-to-us-clean-energy-competitiveness/">report</a> by ImpactAlpha.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Meanwhile, carried interest, a tax provision allowing private equity and hedge fund managers to pay a reduced capital gains tax rate of 23.8%, compared to the income tax rate of 37%, on their share of profits, was also central to Gerber&#8217;s criticism.
According to Gerber, this loophole saves wealthy fund managers billions annually, disproportionately benefits the ultra-rich, while straining federal revenues.

Ross Gerber Slams Trump's Tax Plan As 'Biggest...Scam Out There,' Says It Threatens Clean Energy Future: 'Big Ugly Bill'

Morgan Stanley analyst David Arcaro maintains NextEra Energy (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) with a Overweight and lowers the price target from $95 to $94.

Morgan Stanley Maintains Overweight on NextEra Energy, Lowers Price Target to $94

Looking into the current session, NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) shares are trading at $70.13, after a 0.36% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock went up by 2.65%, but in the past year, fell by 6.98%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is undervalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>NextEra Energy P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 18.89 in the Electric Utilities industry, NextEra Energy Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 26.17. Shareholders might be inclined to think that NextEra Energy Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749139221_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

The portfolio includes six entities managing 614 megawatts of solar capacity and three others overseeing 750 megawatts of wind energy. If finalized, the acquisition would significantly advance Ecopetrol&#8217;s goal of reaching 900 MW of renewable self-generation capacity by 2025.

Colombia's Ecopetrol Eyes 1.3 GW Renewable Push With Statkraft Agreement

The security of publicly traded U.S. solar companies is in focus as Chinese communication devices were found in critical renewable energy infrastructure, particularly power inverters.
What Happened: These devices, discovered during security checks of equipment, bypass typical firewall protections despite remote access capabilities being standard for updates and maintenance, reported Reuters.
Communication devices have been found in the batteries of several Chinese suppliers over the last nine months, as per the report.
The U.S. Department of Energy said that while these features and functionality &#8220;may not have malicious intent, it is critical for those procuring to have a full understanding of the capabilities of the products received.&#8221;
Some U.S.-based solar companies that could be in focus by the presence of undocumented devices in their supply include the following.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, NextEra Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 2.49%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.
