Source The Motley Fool

With President-elect Donald Trump taking office in early 2025, investors are reshuffling their portfolios to match sectors that are set to outperform under his policies. One area that has been hit rather hard is clean energy, as Trump has vowed to slash any climate bills put in place by the Biden administration.

However, one stock that I believe is a value play at these levels is NextEra Energy (NYSE: NEE). Its shares trade at not only a great valuation but they have a nice dividend yield with strong dividend growth.
