Why is CenterPoint Energy Up Today?

CenterPoint Energy (CNP) shares have traded lower as the company launched an $800 million common stock offering to fund an expanded capital plan aimed at meeting surging data center power demand.

  • Boosted capital plan to support growing data center power needs, highlighting a clear growth driver.
  • Restored 90% of the 167,000 storm-related outages in Greater Houston within hours, showcasing operational reliability.
  • Registered underwritten offering of 21.6 million shares at $37.00 each, including a forward sale component.
