That does not invalidate the contract. It tells us the market quickly priced in part of the positive news and then stopped climbing. The older OTR 60-asset graph leaned bearish for CEG, and some public OTR Signals cards reached the same short-term direction. The newer 08:00 graph instead leans bullish, but its latest 24-hour file contains only 24 sampled minute bars, far short of a full price path. We give more weight to the observable two-session movement and the long gap between contract signing and first expected extra megawatts. Constellation states the first upgrade is expected from 2028 onward, so new physical output is not a next-day earnings event. Rising long yields also weigh on the present value of future power projects.", "impact": "BEARISH We favour BEARISH over 48 hours because profit-taking risk appears more immediate than the future electricity delivery.
