Sign InReflecting growing confidence in the utility and energy sector, Meitav Investment House Ltd has significantly increased its position in Vistra Corp (VST). According to reports, the firm purchased an additional 200,000 shares during the first quarter of 2026, bringing its total holding to 474,300 shares. This move underscores strong institutional sentiment, with institutional ownership of VST currently standing at approximately 90.88%.
This expansion comes as Vistra Corp demonstrates robust performance relative to its industry peers, with consensus price targets remaining significantly above current trading levels. Compared to peers like Constellation Energy, Vistra maintains investment appeal driven by stable cash flows, as highlighted in recent earnings reports which noted sustained growth in operating revenue (per market data).
At the close on July 6, 2026, VST shares stood at $157.22, having traded within a daily range of $152.01 to $157.24 per market data. Traders are now looking toward broader US economic catalysts, including the ISM Manufacturing PMI, to gauge industrial energy demand and its subsequent impact on utility sector equities.
