What Happened?

GE Vernova (GEV) stock surged on Monday after Rothschild & Co Redburn issued a rare double upgrade, shifting the energy company from a ‘Sell’ rating all the way to ‘Buy’.

Analyst Simon Toyne also doubled his price target to $1,100 from $560, suggesting GEV stock could climb another 39% from current levels.

GE Vernova stock has already been on a climb, gaining 16% year-to-date and an impressive 169% over the past 12 months.

The upgrade comes as demand in the power and utilities sector has accelerated far beyond expectations.

Toyne pointed to stronger-than-anticipated momentum in AI-related infrastructure and gas turbine orders as key drivers behind his bullish call.

“Order margins for new gas turbines and service are nearly double the levels we assumed in October 2025.” Toyne wrote in a Monday note.

GE Vernova, which spun off from General Electric in 2023, has been capitalizing on surging electricity demand driven by data centers and AI infrastructure buildout.

The company reported strong fourth quarter results in January, booking $22.2 billion in orders, a 65% increase year-over-year, and growing its backlog to $150 billion.

The analyst’s new 2028 EBITDA forecast for GE Vernova is 47% higher than the current Wall Street consensus and 52% above the company’s own floor guidance.

This suggests Toyne sees significant upside potential that the market hasn’t fully priced in yet.

The double upgrade also reflects how quickly the AI infrastructure landscape is evolving.
