Where AEE stands vs its 150-day and 200-day moving averages
As of the October 19, 2026 close, AEE finished 1.50% below its 150-day moving average ($107.70) and 0.67% below its 200-day moving average ($106.80). This snapshot is end-of-day data shown with a five-trading-day delay on the free plan; Premium members see readings from the latest close.
Is AEE overbought or oversold?
At the October 19, 2026 close, AEE's RSI(14) was 79.7, in overbought territory (above 70). The MACD histogram was positive, so short-term momentum leaned bullish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
On the balance sheet, AEE has $12.0M in cash with $21.81B in obligations. The ability to service this debt comfortably depends on continued operational cash generation. Free cash flow is running at -$1.79B, which bears watching. Negative free cash flow can be acceptable during heavy investment periods but needs to improve over time. Return on equity stands at 11.9%, which is decent for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 3.1% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has been uneven over recent years, ranging from $7.96B to $8.80B.
With a beta below 0.7, Ameren Corporation typically sees smaller price swings than the overall market, offering a degree of stability during turbulent periods. Debt significantly exceeds cash reserves, which means the company's financial flexibility could be constrained during economic downturns. The company is burning cash at the operating level, which is not unusual for growth-phase companies but adds risk if it persists. It is important to consider these factors alongside broader market conditions and individual financial goals when reviewing AEE.
