NextEra Energy’s Growth Potential: A $1,000 Investment Could Yield $2,800 by 2035
NextEra Energy (NEE) has consistently outperformed its peers, delivering a 14% average annual total shareholder return over the past two decades. The utility's robust earnings growth—9% compounded annually—and a 10% annual dividend increase have fueled this performance. A $1,000 investment a decade ago WOULD now be worth nearly $4,000, while the same stake 20 years ago would exceed $12,150.
The company projects 6%-8% annual earnings growth through 2027, though management hints at potential upside. With its track record and forward momentum, NextEra remains a compelling play for long-term investors seeking steady returns in the energy sector.
