Vistra shares fell 30% in a year but could rise 115% as analyst eyes growth beyond Texas power prices.

Vistra's stock dropped nearly 30% over the past year due to lower Texas ERCOT power prices impacting its 2027 outlook. However, Wall Street analysts remain bullish, with an average price target implying 57% upside and one analyst predicting a 115% gain based on new long-term contracts with tech giants Meta and AWS, plus potential synergies from acquisitions. The key risks are continued low Texas prices and regulatory delays, but buybacks and contracted growth support a positive outlook. Investors await the next earnings update for guidance clarity.

Vistra (VST) trades at USD 139.54 on Pluang as of Oct 01, 2026 18:31 WIB, near its 52-week low of USD 134.71, with a 1-day gain of 0.86%. This aligns with the article's note of a nearly 30% drop over the past year. Meanwhile, Meta Platforms (META), a key partner in Vistra's new contracts, is priced at USD 724.24, down slightly by 0.13% on the day. Pluang data shows strong buying interest in Vistra with 94% buy orders, reflecting investor attention on its potential growth despite recent price weakness.
