CleaRank AI analysis of NEE
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
NextEra Energy Inc. (NEE) is in a downtrend: the price of $79.80 sits 8.58% below its 200-day average of $87.29 and 1.67% below its 50-day average of $81.15. That leaves the stock near the lower end of its 52-week range, 7.24% above the low of $74.41 and 19.19% below the high of $98.75. Because the 50-day average is 7.03% below the 200-day average, the shorter-term trend is running weaker than the longer one.
The price is down over each of these periods: 0.71% over the past month, 10.14% over the past three months and 6.17% over the past year. The 14-day RSI of 55.3 is in the neutral zone, and the MACD line is negative.

- Keep an eye on the two closest levels: the 50-day SMA at $81.15 sits above the price, and the 20-day EMA at $78.45 sits below it.
- The 14-day RSI reads 55.3, in the neutral zone, with the MACD line negative; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- The share price fell 1.01% in the first session after the April 23, 2026 report, and NEE has beaten estimates in 6 of the last 7 reports.
NEE is trading beneath both its 50-day ($81.15) and 200-day ($87.29) averages, and that positioning is why the trend reads as down. A move back above the 50-day would be the first sign of repair. The nearest level above the price is the 50-day SMA at $81.15.
Below the price, the 20-day EMA at $78.45 is the next marker.

From weekly closing values with dividends reinvested. A drawdown is the fall from the highest value reached so far to a later low.

A $10,000 investment in NEE in October 2016 would be worth about $33,168 today with dividends reinvested, compared with about $42,055 for the same investment in the S&P 500 benchmark (also with dividends reinvested).

Long-term scenarios
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in NEE, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in NEE today could grow to about $21,031 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $59,166 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $7,476. The simulation models price only; at today's 3.05% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
NEE Stock Price Prediction: 2030
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $107 for NEE by 2030 in the base case, from $79.80 today (1.3x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $55.85. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on NEE's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.
| Year | 10th percentile | Base case | 90th percentile | range base today |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | $61.98 | $85.96 | $119 | |
| 2028 | $58.30 | $92.59 | $147 | |
| 2029 | $56.60 | $99.74 | $176 | |
