Dividend coverage (FY2025)
Covered by reported results. In FY2025, DUK's dividend was covered by reported results (earnings payout 66%). This describes past coverage, not a forecast.
- Earnings payout66% dividends / net income
- Free-cash-flow payoutnot assessable free cash flow was not positive that year
Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items. Informational only — not financial advice.
How Duke Energy looks technically
Duke Energy (DUK) is trading 5.7% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend. Its 50-day average crossed below its 200-day average about 20 trading days ago — a "death cross", a bearish long-term signal. A strong downtrend is in place — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 32, with sellers in control. Momentum is neutral — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 50, neither overbought (above 70) nor oversold (below 30). MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, turned bullish about 3 trading days ago (its momentum flipped positive). It made a new 20-day low about 11 trading days ago. It is 4.0% above its 52-week low (its lowest price of the past year).

| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $123.87 | $123.87 |
| Swing structure | each recent peak has been lower than the one before it and each dip deeper — the pattern chart-watchers call a downtrend, which describes where price has already been and not where it goes next | lower highs and lower lows |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing low 9 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 9 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in the fourth leg, a pullback against that downward direction; the labelling fails if price closes above 119.76. It is one of several labellings that fit, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. The same swings also read as a completed three-part correction. | possible downward five-wave sequence, in wave 4 (one of several readings) |

|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading in the upper half of its 14-day range ($112.40 to $118.00) — its "stochastic" reading is 79 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 79.3 |

| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($113.23 to $133.46), and it has recovered roughly a quarter of its fall from last year’s high — 18% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket" — for this company that is $125.73 to $126.38. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 17.8% |
| From the all-time high | it is 13.1% below its all-time high | -13.1% |
| Nearest price level | it is trading 1.4% below a resistance level at $118.45 — a price it turned at 14 times since 2024-11-27, most recently on 2026-08-31. Since 2024-10-08 it has 3 such levels below the current price and 5 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | +1.4% |

Volatility

| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are wider than usual versus its own recent 6-month history (wider than about 77% of it) | 77th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $1.58 between its high and its low — about 1.4% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $1.58 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $111.72 and $119.80 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $111.72 – $115.76 – $119.80 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 1.4% in a typical session — among the calmest in the catalog. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 1.4% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 4.5 daily ranges below its 200-day average price (5.7% below it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 4.5 daily ranges below its 200-day average |

|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 5 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: a "death cross" — its 50-day average is below its 200-day, trading below its 200-day average, a strong downtrend, with sellers in control, lagging the market over 6 months, trading below the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 5 of 9 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 5.6% below the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-01 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established downtrend, with the band above acting as the level that would have to be cleared. The band itself is thin, spanning 1.8% of the share price, which is taken to mean a barrier that gives way easily. | -5.6% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
2
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 6% below the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $124.00 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 190 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -5.8% |
|---|---|---|
| Vs the average paid since it last reported | the price is 2% below the average price paid since it last reported on 2026-08-04 (its 10-Q), so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $119.44 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 47 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -2.2% |

Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a five-part downward sequence — what Elliott-wave chartists call an impulse — now in leg 4 of five, a pullback against that direction.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $119.76.
This is one of several labellings that fit the same swings, so treat it as a reading rather than the reading. It was chosen from 2 labellings that survived the rules, counting shorter readings of the same bars.
On past moves of this shape the leg has usually ended somewhere between $117.18 and $119.76 — that is where it has tended to end if the count holds, not a forecast of where the price goes.
Alternate reading: The same swings also read as a completed three-part correction, which fails on a close below $112.40.
This reading has stood for 19 trading days, since 2026-09-14.

- Newer filing (2026-08-04) changes the trading arrangement disclosure from 'During the three months ended March 31, 2026, no director or officer... adopted...' (older filing) to 'Except as described below, during the three months ended June 30, 2026, no director or officer... adopted...' with additional disclosure for Bonnie Titone.
- Notes:
- Both filings contain significant portions of exhibit lists and signatures that are not directly part of the Risk Factors section; comparison focused on the Risk Factors and related front-matter text provided.
- The older filing text is cut off after '*104 Cover Page Interactive Data File (formatted in Inline XBRL an' and does not include the signature page, limiting comparison of later sections.

Only open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction. Sales may be planned and non-discretionary (e.g. a Rule 10b5-1 plan) and are not necessarily bearish; open-market buying is not a recommendation to buy. Informational only — not financial advice.

- Distinct 13F filers 6
- Reported shares held 132,207,469

reported quarterly holdings change (2026-03-31 → 2026-06-30): 1 new, 4 increased, 1 decreased, 0 exited. Change counts cover only managers that filed 13F reports in BOTH quarters, derived between two quarter-end snapshots — not same-day trades; a single manager is never said to have "bought" or "sold".
Institutional holdings are quarter-end long positions reported on SEC Form 13F-HR, filed up to 45 days after the quarter ends — they are delayed, are not real-time trades, exclude short positions and most non-US securities, and are not investment advice. Any increase/decrease is a reported change between two quarterly snapshots, not a same-day purchase or sale. These are quarter-end snapshots from the 13F filings on SEC EDGAR, filed within 45 days — not real-time, and any change is a difference between two quarterly reports, not a same-day trade. Informational only — not financial advice.

- Short interest (% of shares outstanding) 2.44%
- Prior settlement (shares) 17,135,318
- Reported change 10.95%
- Days to cover (reported) 5.4
Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-15 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
