Emera shares are climbing as investors rotate into defensive, income-focused utilities amid heightened geopolitical tensions and broader market volatility. The stock is also drawing interest from buyers looking for stable, high-yield assets in a choppy environment.
Adding fuel to the move, several analysts, including Scotiabank, TD Securities, and CFRA, issued bullish upgrades on the stock after the company declared a $0.7325 quarterly dividend. Confidence was further boosted by a $750 million debt offering to fund Emera’s $20 billion grid modernization plan.
