Benzinga examined the prospects for<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas"> many investors&#8217; favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here&#8217;s a look at some of our top stories.
The major indexes, which had been climbing following Trump&#8217;s election victory, lost momentum this week, with the S&amp;P 500 down 2.1%, the Nasdaq dropping 3.2%, and the Dow shedding 1.2%. 
October consumer inflation matched expectations, but producer inflation exceeded forecasts, sparking concerns about the sustainability of disinflation as the year closes. 
Investor sentiment weakened further after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made unexpectedly hawkish comments, emphasizing the Fed&#8217;s cautious approach and lack of urgency to reduce interest rates. As a result, market expectations for a December rate cut have significantly decreased, leaving traders uncertain <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/24/11/42018463/trumps-post-election-rally-fades-dollar-surges-to-over-1-year-highs-powell-puts-december-interest-rate-cut-into-question-this-week-in-the-market">about the Fed's next steps.</a>

Canaccord Genuity Maintains Hold on Plug Power, Lowers Price Target to $2

Analysts revised the price target or estimates on Plug Power, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) after the company reported weak<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41941424" rel="noreferrer noopener"> third-quarter results and provided FY25 guidance.</a>
On Wednesday, Plug provided its financial outlook for 2025, projecting revenue between $850 million and $950 million (street view: $1.185 billion).&nbsp;
Looking further ahead, the company aims for a target revenue of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">approximately $3.75 billion by 2030</a>.
Also this week, Plug Power reported third-quarter revenue of $173.73 million, which missed the consensus of $210.23 million and EPS loss of 25 cents, missed<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41912702/plug-power-stock-slides-on-q3-earnings-revenue-miss-eps-miss-soft-guidance-and-more" rel="noreferrer noopener"> estimate for a loss of 24 cents</a>.
The company expects its full-year 2024 revenue outlook&nbsp;of $700 million and $800 million&nbsp;versus estimates of $823.46 million.
Piper Sandler analyst Kashy Harrison cut the price target to $1.40 from $1.60 while maintaining an Underweight rating.
The analyst writes that Plug&#8217;s results missed expectations but weren&#8217;t as weak as anticipated. While cash burn improved year-over-year, it remains high, requiring continued capital raises despite potential DOE loan support for Texas CapEx (annualized OCF: -$700 million).
The rationale for U.S. grid-tied green hydrogen projects is unclear due to power shortages, though European development may benefit from government support, adds the analyst.
Thus, the analyst estimates fourth-quarter revenues at $193 million, below the Street&#8217;s $280 million estimate.
JP Morgan analyst Bill Peterson maintained a Neutral rating on the stock.
The analyst writes that he found the more cautiously optimistic tone refreshing, with an acknowledgment that the broader hydrogen industry is likely to see gradual growth in the near- to mid-term.
Plug&#8217;s goals to achieve EBITDA-positive in second half of FY26 and profitability by 2028 still suggest the need for additional capital raises—estimated at $1 billion—despite the DOE loan, given the company&#8217;s fragile cash position, adds the analyst.
The analyst says that if the company executes well in 2025, it could pave the way for a stronger 2026 and growth in the latter part of the decade, contingent on factors like the DOE loan closure and final 45V guidance.
Morgan Stanley analyst Andrew S Percoco reaffirmed an Underweight rating with a price target of $1.75.
The analyst maintains a cautious outlook on green hydrogen, which presents ongoing risks to the company&#8217;s long-term growth and margins.
Percoco estimates that PLUG will need to issue an additional $500 million in equity through the first half of FY25 to cover its near-term cash burn, with DOE funding expected to start in the second quarter of 2025.
Roth analyst Craig Irwin reiterated the Buy rating and a price target of $5.00, with a 2025 revenue estimate of $900 million. This reflects the successful generation of Green Hydrogen PTC in Georgia and the improving visibility of gross margin gains in second half of FY25.
PLUG&#8217;s shares may experience increased volatility due to the high valuation on 2025 estimates, with company-specific and industry catalysts potentially causing significant shifts in long-term hydrogen economy projections, adds the analyst.
With a Perform rating, Oppenheimer analysts write that they view Plug&#8217;s commentary on green ammonia pricing as positive for electrolyzer demand and see the cryogenic business benefiting from LNG growth.
The analyst says that they are encouraged by PLUG&#8217;s focus on operational efficiencies, given its cash position, and notes investors are seeking greater consistency in its financial performance.
Truist Securities analyst Jordan Levy maintained a Hold rating with a price target of $2. The analyst writes that the updated targets suggest a more grounded reset of expectations.
It appears PLUG is shifting from a pattern of overpromising and underdelivering, acknowledging the slower-than-anticipated hydrogen market growth and tighter capital environment, adds the analyst.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Global X Hydrogen ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYDR#NASDAQ">HYDR</a>).
Price Action: PLUG shares are down 3.30% at $1.905 at the last check Thursday.

Wall Street is speculating on the effects of possible Donald Trump policy changes when he takes office in January 2025. JPMorgan analyst Virgina Martin Heriz weighs in on the potential impacts of a second Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41781921/what-does-trumps-victory-mean-for-ev-giant-tesla-and-the-big-3-automakers">presidency on sustainable investing.&nbsp;</a>
Onshoring: Heriz sees a second Trump administration modifying the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), but doing so with a "scalpel, not a sledgehammer." 
The JPMorgan analyst sees the domestic content portions of the IRA as the "most safe incentives" due to bi-partisan support of supply chain onshoring. Heriz points to First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>), SunRun, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUN#NASDAQ">RUN</a>) and Sunnova Energy International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NOVA#NYSE">NOVA</a>) as clean tech companies particularly positioned to benefit from supply chain onshoring.

Kennedy Jr. Rattles Vaccine Stocks: &#8216;Shoot First Reaction&#8217;</a>
Hydrogen: Heriz also sees the 45V tax credit for clean hydrogen producers as likely to stay due to strong backing from traditional energy companies and Republican-leaning areas. Clean hydrogen companies including FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) and Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) are likely safe from policy changes under a second Trump administration, according to Heriz.&nbsp;&nbsp;
EV Incentives: The analyst does expect subsidies for electric vehicles to be downsized or repealed, including the 30D clean vehicle tax credit of up to $7,500 on the purchase of a qualifying EV. Additionally, Heriz anticipates tightening EV charging incentives like the 30C tax credit that covers up to 30% of the cost of each charger. Some companies that could be negatively impacted by the repeal of EV and related charging incentives include EVgo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVGO#NASDAQ">EVGO</a>), ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHPT#NASDAQ">CHPT</a>) and Blink Charging Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLNK#NASDAQ">BLNK</a>).&nbsp;
Oil &amp; Gas: Domestic oil and gas production is more influenced by market prices and global supply and demand rather than government policies, Heriz said. For this reason, the analyst expects a potentially reduced regulatory burden to be "helpful to the industry, but not life-changing in the short-term."
The Take-Away: While Heriz does expect policy changes to affect sustainable investing under the second Trump administration, she said that outflows in sustainable investing are mainly motivated by underperformance.&nbsp;
"Fund performance matters far more than politics," the JPMorgan analyst said.&nbsp;

Sustainable Investment Under Trump: 'Performance Matters Far More Than Politics,' JPMorgan Analyst Says

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) reported third-quarter financial results before the market opened on Tuesday. Here&#8217;s a look at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41896399/plug-power-announces-key-strategic-milestones-and-continued-margin-improvement-in-third-quarter-20">key metrics from the quarter</a>.
Q3 Earnings: Plug Power reported third-quarter revenue of $173.73 million, missing analyst <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings">estimates</a> of $210.23 million. The company reported a quarterly loss of 25 cents per share, missing analyst estimates for a loss of 24 cents per share, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Plug Power said its results were driven by an inflection in electrolyzer deployments, continued expansion of its internally produced hydrogen network and increased leverage on the company&#8217;s manufacturing footprint. Plug noted that electrolyzer sales increased&nbsp;285%&nbsp;on a quarter-over-quarter basis.
Planned downtime and maintenance at the company&#8217;s Georgia and Tennessee facilities limited margin contribution in the third quarter, but it&#8217;s expected to improve with higher utilization in the fourth quarter.
&#8220;Plug Power&#8217;s performance this quarter underscores our commitment to building a sustainable and profitable hydrogen future. Our progress in electrolyzer deployments, advancements in hydrogen production, and expansion into new markets reflect our team&#8217;s dedication to leading the build out of the hydrogen economy,&#8221; said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power.

Outlook: Plug Power expects full-year 2024 revenue to be in the range of $700 million to $800 million versus estimates of $823.46 million.
Plug said it will host its annual symposium at its headquarters on Nov. 13.

Plug Power Stock Slides On Q3 Earnings: Revenue Miss, EPS Miss, Soft Guidance And More

Shares of FuelCell Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCEL#NASDAQ">FCEL</a>) are trading lower Tuesday, potentially in response to Plug Power's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) disappointing third-quarter financial report. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41851385/why-fuelcell-energy-fcel-stock-hit-a-new-52-week-low-today">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: Plug Power posted revenue of $173.73 million, below forecasts of $210.23 million. The company also reported a net loss of $211.2 million, or 25 cents per share, missing the consensus estimate for a loss of 24 cents per share, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Why It Matters: FuelCell Energy, which operates in a similar sector and often moves in sympathy with Plug, is experiencing a decline in share price alongside Plug Power. 
Both companies share exposure to hydrogen-based solutions, and Plug's report appears to be influencing investor sentiment across the hydrogen and fuel cell industries. The sector-wide caution reflects challenges like the ongoing push for hydrogen adoption and the profitability hurdles that hydrogen companies, including FuelCell Energy, continue to face.
Last week, FuelCell Energy announced a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41851385/why-fuelcell-energy-fcel-stock-hit-a-new-52-week-low-today"> 1-for-30 reverse stock split</a> in an effort to boost its stock price in order to regain compliance with Nasdaq listing requirements. Post-split trading commenced on Monday.
Clean energy stocks, including FuelCell Energy, are facing additional selling pressure following Donald Trump's election victory last week. Concerns are mounting over potential policy shifts under a Trump administration, which could roll back support for clean energy initiatives, creating uncertainty about future growth prospects in the sector.
FCEL Price Action: FuelCell shares were down 8.91% at $6.08 at the time of writing, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro.</a>
