The power was cut on Thursday at 11.30pm. By Friday 7am reports were coming out (as with the one you link) naming SSEN. On Friday market open SSE rose for c1.5hours (the Ftse100 in comparison came out the traps on the open but wilted after 30mins). Ie no clear weakness specifically in SSE visible IMV.

So I'm unclear what if any unknown news re: SSE involvement that might come out on Monday...

Just my 2c etc

SSE (SSE.L) – Reports first-half results on Wednesday 13 November

SSE is set to report its first-half results on Wednesday and the timing of this update is particularly significant for several reasons, according to AJ Bell.

Firstly, utilities — a sector long in the crosshairs of both regulators and the public — have largely avoided the windfall taxes that have affected other industries. In the UK’s first budget under the new government, utilities were spared any new levies, a development that could impact both investor sentiment and long-term strategic planning within the sector.

Secondly, the sector remains under intense public and regulatory scrutiny. Consumers continue to feel the pressure from rising energy bills, exacerbated by inflation, while utility companies are expected to ramp up their environmental and investment commitments

Thirdly, Ofwat’s AMP8 regulatory determination for water companies is due in December, with potential ramifications for utilities across the board, including SSE, which is involved in energy distribution and could see its operational models affected by broader regulatory changes in the sector.

Lastly, interest rate cuts from the Bank of England, could make the dividend yields from utility stocks like SSE more attractive relative to cash, potentially boosting demand for shares in the sector, which traditionally offers stable returns.

“SSE’s shares are up by just under 10% in the past year and not far from their all-time highs. The company is a broad-ranging power play, as it generates electricity from gas-fired power stations, on and offshore wind farms and hydroelectric plants, and it also provides and runs electricity transmission and distribution networks,” Mould, Hewson and Coatsworth, said.

For SSE’s upcoming first-half results, two figures will likely grip the attention of investors, according to AJ Bell:

Adjusted earnings per share (EPS): SSE has set a target of 13% to 16% compound annual growth between 2022 and 2027, with EPS expected to grow from 158.5p in the year to March 2024 to between 175p and 200p by 2027. However, analysts are forecasting a more modest growth rate for this year, with the benchmark for the first-half result being last year’s adjusted EPS of 37p.

Dividend: SSE reduced its dividend in 2024 to 60p per share to fund its renewable energy transition. Looking ahead, the company plans to increase the dividend by 5% to 10% annually through 2027, with the first-half dividend payment last year standing at 20p. Investors will be keen to see whether the company can maintain its dividend growth trajectory while continuing to invest in its Net Zero ambitions.

It is difficult to assess the threat to SSE from a shareholders perspective. Clearly under any government the sector needs to thrive and SSE holds some valuable assets. But whether Labour will confiscate them on the justification that they should be under public ownership is the key question to me. Renationalisation would be a hard pill to swallow but Starmer has not definitively ruled it out. A more gradual under-mining of shareholders value seems more likely.We will have to see the manifestos to have more clarity , not that they are exactly reliable markers of future actions.
Simplistically the share price will fall as the election gets closer and that threat rises, I would have thought.
Historically the share price actually rose during Blairs tenure then fell sharply in Browns time before rising during Cameron's first Government. These of course are fairly valueless observations in complex situations.
As the price has risen recently I am tempted to take out most of my holdings rather than risk a fall towards election time. Or maybe I am being too cautious...

You may be right but my conclusion is that the outlook for SSE is getting more difficult having enjoyed a good run. The increasing risks are not priced in if, as you say, the recent fall back from £19 is just down to the macro economic cycle of higher gilt rates. It does not help SSE share price cutting yield by a third, something which compensated for the risk.

A few months delay in completing the Seagreen wind farm off Angus. SSE will be facing the same delay and cost problems everyone else is declaring, surely? In the long run SSE will no doubt end up a winner but the process of creating value from developments suddenly looks tough.

We will see, the results of AR5 are due to be announced at the latest by the end of this week and will tell a story about who is still aggressively pursuing offshore wind opportunities.

Yes Gas is providing us with about 50% this year. Today when it seems to me that the whole country is becalmed, wind is still pushing out 24% of our needs this week. Though maybe it is windy offshore somewhere.
The trouble with those figures is that they don't describe the intermittency.
Good to see that we have been net exporters for the last 24 hrs too.

But SSE share price is now more about politics than balance sheets again.

Its interesting to note that the SSE share price took 3 months to climb from £16.00 to £19 and

then retrace its £3 rise in 3 weeks.

If a recession is coming, Utilities tend to out perform especially if the oulook

to YEAR END IN MARCH 2023 expects a Dividend Yield over 5% and a Price earnings growth

of less than 1-bullish against most market yardsticks.

I forgot the old market adage "Sell in May and don't come back till St Ledgers Day"
