Page 2 of 2

Still, rising natural gas prices have likely been the major cause for Exelon’s recent share-price rise. With gas prices now double what they were at last year’s lows and the nat-gas tracking United States Natural Gas Fund, LP (NYSEMKT:UNG) up more than 45% in the past year, Exelon’s nuclear fleet is finally starting to look a bit more attractive compared to its peers.

In Exelon’s quarterly report, the keys to look for will be details on the company’s growth strategy, especially as it relates to renewable energy. As other utilities have moved aggressively to shore up growth opportunities, Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) needs to make sure it doesn’t get left behind.
