Consolidated Edison Inc. (ED) is not a strong buy for a beginner, long-term investor at this time. While the company has shown solid financial performance in its latest quarter, the lack of significant positive catalysts, mixed analyst ratings, and limited upside potential make it more suitable for holding rather than initiating a new position.
The technical indicators show a bullish trend with MACD positively expanding, RSI in the neutral zone, and moving averages in a bullish alignment (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200). The stock is trading near its resistance level (R1: 111.714), suggesting limited immediate upside.

Hedge funds are increasing their positions, with a 108.15% increase in buying activity last quarter.
The company's financials for Q3 2025 showed strong YoY growth in revenue (+10.70%), net income (+17.01%), and EPS (+12.43%).
Analysts have mixed ratings, with some firms maintaining Underperform or Neutral ratings and highlighting limited catalysts for significant upside.
Gross margin dropped by 3.62% YoY in the latest quarter.
No recent news or event-driven catalysts to drive the stock higher.
In Q3 2025, Consolidated Edison reported revenue growth of 10.70% YoY to $4.53 billion, net income growth of 17.01% YoY to $688 million, and EPS growth of 12.43% YoY to $1.9. However, gross margin declined by 3.62% YoY to 63.71%.
Analyst sentiment is mixed. While some firms raised price targets (e.g., RBC Capital to $118), others maintained Neutral or Underperform ratings, citing limited catalysts and challenges in the New York regulatory environment. The consensus view suggests limited upside potential.
