Constellation Energy (CEG) just signed a 20-year agreement with Amazon tied to the Calvert Cliffs nuclear plant, supporting more than $3b of Maryland infrastructure investment and extra emissions-free capacity through the early 2030s.
For context, Constellation Energy’s share price has fallen 13.9% over the past month and is down 29.7% year to date, even though the 3-year total shareholder return is up more than 2x. This suggests longer-term holders have still seen strong gains while recent momentum has faded slightly.

Constellation Energy now trades well below both analyst targets and some intrinsic estimates after a sharp pullback. Is that a sensible safety margin, or an overreaction to near term risks around this Amazon backed nuclear deal?
Most Popular Narrative: 26% Undervalued
Constellation Energy last closed at $257.49, while the most followed narrative, according to andrei9868, places fair value closer to $350. That gap frames the Amazon nuclear deal as one more long-term contract layered on what the narrative treats as scarce clean baseload capacity.
The market is underappreciating how scarce true 24/7 carbon-free baseload has become just as AI data centers and electrification drive the sharpest sustained rise in U.S. power demand in decades. Most investors still treat CEG as a “utility with nuclear exposure.” It is better understood as the owner of the largest, highest-quality fleet of scarce, dispatchable zero-carbon generation that hyperscalers cannot easily replicate or replace.
See why 21 investors see Constellation Energy as 26% undervalued.
Result: Fair Value of $350 (UNDERVALUED)
Still, the Constellation Energy story can break if nuclear operations stumble or if regulators slow data center connections and large-load approvals more than investors expect.
