American Electric Power Company Inc. (AEP) has been making waves in the market recently, with a mix of both positive and negative press. Notably,
executive leadership changes have been announced, and CWA Asset Management Group LLC added 5,095 shares of the company's stock to their holdings. AEP stays on track for low
double-digit returns, but at the same time, the company faces
rate hike protests from West Virginia and complaints from Kentucky's state officials. Its executive vice president,
David Feinberg, sold approximately $819k worth of AEP's stock, which sparked attention along with the selling of
19.9% stake in two transmission assets for $2.82 billion to the KKR and PSP Investments consortium. Prospects remain optimistic as AEP announces its
first quarter 2025 earnings beating estimates, while its overall stock performance is outperforming S&P 500. However, the challenge remains as there are claims about AEP using a lot of debt, and suggestions that
AEP's returns have hit a wall. Nevertheless, the company continues to be recognized as one of America's best employers and is preparing for a common stock offering with a forward component.
