The analyst believes that EXC\u2019s utility will be held back by the political and regulatory \u2018noise\u2019 in its key states, in addition to its below-average earnings growth of 5%-7%. Wolfe expects the utility\u2019s 2026 guidance to be in line with forecasts.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ:EXC) received a setback also on January 22 when Barclays analyst Nicholas Campanella lowered the firm\u2019s price target on the stock from $52 to $50, but maintained an \u2018Overweight\u2019 rating on the shares. The revised target, which still indicates an upside of over 11% from the current share price, comes as the analyst firm updated targets in the power and utilities group as part of a Q4 preview.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Similarly, earlier on January 20, Wells Fargo analyst Shahriar Pourreza also reduced the firm\u2019s price target on Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ:EXC) from $52 to $51, while maintaining an \u2018Overweight\u2019 rating on the shares.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-vbsvxt\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->While we acknowledge the potential of EXC as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
