KEPCO: Tailwind From Lower Energy Prices
KEPCO, South Korea's dominant power utility, is poised to benefit from lower fuel prices due to President Trump's tariffs, boosting its profitability. KEPCO's reliance on coal and LNG, combined with falling energy prices, positions it for strong earnings in 2025. Trading at a low valuation, KEPCO's stock offers significant upside potential, with the possibility of reinstating dividends.

Korea Electric Power: Dividends Are Back And Outlook Is Positive
I am still bullish on Korea Electric Power stock, considering its prospects and capital return. KEP has resumed dividend distributions, and its expected FY25 yield is at the high-single digit level. KEP should continue to deliver positive earnings on the back of drivers like operating leverage, a favorable change in generation mix, and lower energy-related costs.
