Deutsche Bank upgraded NRG Energy (NYSE: NRG) from Hold to Buy.

Deutsche analyst said, "We are upgrading NRG following the recent weakness as we now see value in the stock even at a $4 long-term gas price. Leverage to
rising ERCOT heat rates seems underappreciated, while the gas risk has been
largely mitigated through 2014 given hedges and offsets."
