Vistra Is the Quietest Big Winner of the AI Power Boom. Here's Why.

Vistra, an independent power producer, is positioned to capitalize on surging data center electricity demand driven by AI investments. Unlike regulated utilities with capped returns, Vistra sells power into wholesale markets and has secured long-term power purchase agreements with hyperscalers like Amazon and Meta.
