How it trades on rate days

How TLN has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 1.23 — moves strongly with bonds for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Talen Energy Corporation moved 1.23% on average · correlation 0.21 · higher than 90% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months −0.57 less rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −3.60% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −0.11% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Talen Energy Corporation

TLN in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Talen Energy generates and sells electricity, capacity and ancillary services into US wholesale power markets, running plants fuelled by nuclear, coal, oil and natural gas. It owns and operates roughly 13.1 GW of power infrastructure and sells this output to grid operators rather than end customers directly.

Where it sits in the stack
Talen sits in the Utilities sector of our screened universe, in the US independent power producer group, with no seat in Rubin or Halo, our AI-focused indices.

Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group here is drawn from Utilities names in the US, alongside international power and infrastructure companies scored in the same sector; the market's usual comparison is with Vistra as another merchant power generator.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Talen carries a Closelooknet score, with valuation its strongest module and momentum its weakest, but it holds no seat in our indices and has drawn no quotes in our editions.
What the diary watches
Whether momentum stabilises given how weak that module reads against the stronger valuation score, and whether analyst targets keep moving relative to spot.
