What Is Xcel Energy?
A crowd that mostly abstains.
Xcel Energy is a regulated electricity and gas utility serving eight states from Minnesota to Texas, long one of the largest wind power operators in the country and now one of the utilities most exposed to artificial intelligence: data centre requests have reshaped its load forecasts and its capital plan runs into the tens of billions across the rest of the decade. It also carries the wildfire liabilities that come with running lines through Colorado. On the CFGI Xcel Energy fear and greed index none of that produces much drama at all.
The CFGI read: Xcel closed 140 of 273 sessions in Neutral, more than half the window, and its largest single-day fall in thirteen months was 22 points, on 21 April 2026 from 61 to 39. The average was 52 out of 100. But when the market genuinely broke, Xcel broke with it: its floor of 19 out of 100 on 20 March 2026 at $76.77 landed on the single broadest day of stock fear we have on record, when 169 of the 245 stocks scored closed in Fear or worse and 19 sat in Extreme Fear. A utility crowd will ignore almost everything, right up until it cannot.
Xcel Energy Fear and Greed Index History
Q3 2026 breakdown. The table below updates daily.
Autumn 2025 was its best mood. A 14-session run in Greed or better from 23 September to 10 October carried five straight days of Extreme Greed and the window high of 85 out of 100 on 26 September 2025 at $79.28. December supplied the counterweight, nine consecutive sessions in Fear or worse from 2 to 12 December 2025, a slow fortnight of doubt with no single day of drama in it.
Three Extreme Fear days in the whole window, two of them back to back on 20 and 23 March 2026, place Xcel 131st of the stocks we track on that table. The recovery afterwards was characteristically unhurried, taking until the end of April to deliver its biggest jump, 30 points on 30 April 2026 from 39 to 69.
The price did the quiet compounding a utility crowd expects: up 20.2% from $67.91 to $81.65, with a low of $67.32 in the window's first week on 25 June 2025 and a high of $83.91 on 24 February 2026, a spread of $16.59 across thirteen months. It signs off at 73, in Greed. Among the names on the overall market Fear and Greed Index, Xcel is the one whose chart you have to look at twice before you notice anything has happened.
