Academic risk and quality models computed from AEP's own filings and price history, not from analyst opinion.

GARCH(1,1) 30-day annualised forecast, above the current 18.1% reading.
Fama-French 5-factor market beta. The five factors explain 5% of this stock's return variance; the rest is idiosyncratic.
The stock’s own historical valuation anchor, which is a fairer comparison than a sector average for a company with a persistent premium or discount.
