The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- FE closes above its 50-day average ($45.49) while the 50-day is still under the 200-day ($47.51): a rebound inside a longer decline, not yet an uptrend.
- At $46.43, FE is 11.3% below its 1-year high of $52.34, set on April 9, 2026, and 8.8% above its 1-year low of $42.67 (September 28, 2026).
- Over the past month FE rose 3.5%, from $44.85 to $46.43.
- FE trades at 22.4x its last twelve months of earnings and 15.8x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 42.4% higher.
- Its P/E is 19.7% above the 18.7x median of the 3 other utilities—regulated electric companies we track (NEE, SO, DUK).
- FE's 30-day volatility, 15.3% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 1.0%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 0.37: over five years of monthly returns, FE moved about 0.37% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
What would change the read
- The rebound holds while it closes above the 50-day average, $45.49 (−2.0%); it becomes an uptrend when the 50-day climbs 4.4% to cross the 200-day at $47.51.
- A close above $52.34 (+12.7%) would be a new 1-year high; below $42.67 (−8.1%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for FE, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under utilities—regulated electric among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
- Every sentence here is written by code from those figures, refreshed daily; nobody edits it for FE by hand. It describes what the price and the multiples have done, not what they will do, and it is not advice.
