CWEN stock completed a bullish MACD crossover on 12/31/2021, and has a relatively neutral RSI, signaling more gains to come in the short-term.

Clearway Energy, Inc. CWEN Stock As A Long-Term Investment

Investors may find CWEN stock’s valuation a bit rich, with a P/E(ttm) of 119.3 & a P/B of 2.31.

Their Quarterly Revenue Growth Y-o-Y is 5.7%.

Investors also may want to take a close look on CWEN’s balance sheet, with Total Cash (mrq) of $189M & $8.3B in Total Debt (mrq).

However, CWEN does offer an annual dividend yield of 3.65%, with a Payout Ratio of 441%.

This is very high, and suggests that when paired with the balance sheet figures that their dividend may not be sustainable for too long, as typically a healthy ratio is less than 50%.

Still, ~94% of their share float is held by institutional investors.

Clearway Energy, Inc. CWEN Stock As A Short-Term Trade Using Options

Traders can use options in order to take advantage of CWEN’s current momentum, while staving off broader market fears around COVID & inflation.

I am looking at the 1/21 expiration dated contracts.

The $30 & $35 calls look appealing, although very illiquid.

The $35 & $40 puts also look appealing, with the $35 puts having the most open interest of all of the mentioned contracts.

Tying It All Together

Overall, there are some interesting opportunities for traders & investors in CWEN stock.

They do offer a nice looking dividend yield, however it is unknown how stable it will be over the years with their payout ratio & balance sheet.

In the near-term, their price looks set to continue to rise with their current momentum.

CWEN stock is worth taking a closer look at.
