THE MIDDAY TRADE

Going Green

According to UBS (UBS), renewable energy is going to take center stage as domestic electricity demand continues to skyrocket. 

As Big Tech demands more and more energy to fuel the growth of AI, and coal plants nationwide continue to shut down, a perfect storm is emerging for renewable energy to thrive. 

The investment bank predicts that the US will require 850 terawatt hours of additional generation capacity by 2030. It expects that surplus demand to be met by a combination of solar, wind and natural gas.

Tech Demand

UBS analysts believe that the combination of increasing demand and declining coal power provides renewable energy with a long growth runway. 

In addition, many major companies across a broad spectrum of industries have committed to 100% renewable energy goals. However, tech companies such as Amazon (AMZN) and Meta (META) will far outweigh companies like Nike (NKE) when it comes to demand. 

Amazon, Meta, Microsoft (MSFT), and Google (GOOG) have already signed contracts for 230 terawatt hours of power, which will come online in the next two years.

Stock Picks

UBS has highlighted three stocks that it thinks stand to benefit from the increase in renewable energy demand: First Solar (FSLR), Fluence Energy (FLNC) and Array Technologies (ARRY).

Array technology has the biggest upside based on target price at 112%. First Solar and Fluence have upsides of 25% and 64%, respectively, according to the investment bank. 

The world has been moving toward renewable energy for some time, and AIā€™s energy demand isnā€™t going anywhere, so these stocks could prove very valuable over the next few years.

SURVEY THE STREET

At the June FOMC meeting, Jerome Powell said that no one on the Fed committee ā€œhas rate hikes in their base case.ā€

Unfortunately, there seems to be a change in tune recently. San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly recently stated, ā€œThe bumpiness of inflation data so far this year has not inspired confidence.ā€

To top that, Fed Governor Michelle Bowman discussed this morning how she would be open to raising rates if inflation doesnā€™t pull back.

Will the Fed Hike or Cut Rates in 2024?
