PSEG stock heads into the open after a 2.1 percent drop

At the close on September 15, 2026, PSEG stock ended lower on the NYSE, slipping 2.1 percent and drawing nearer to its 52-week low. Trading came against a broader U.S. equity decline, with the S&P 500 down 0.45 percent the same day.

PSEG stock closed at USD 70.86 on the NYSE on September 15, 2026, down 2.1 percent from the prior session. The move left the shares near their 52-week low, highlighting recent pressure in the name as U.S. equities also weakened.

September 15, 2026 in numbers

Public Service Enterprise Group Inc. (ISIN US7445731067, NYSE: PEG) saw its shares open around USD 70.86 on September 15, 2026, a level described as near the 52-week low in a note on institutional activity from MarketBeat. U.S. stocks broadly declined on September 15, 2026, with the S&P 500 closing at 7,585.73 points, down 0.45 percent, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average losing 0.63 percent to finish at 52,093.11, according to a market wrap from The Business Times. The same report tied the broader sell-off to higher oil prices and benchmark Treasury yields breaching the 5 percent mark, factors that can weigh on regulated utilities and other rate-sensitive sectors.

Today’s drivers to watch

Today, September 16, 2026, PSEG heads into the open against this backdrop of elevated yields and recent equity weakness, with no company-specific earnings release or major corporate event highlighted for the date in public calendars. Broader macro conditions remain in focus, as the prior session’s move in oil and Treasury yields described by The Business Times continues to shape sentiment toward defensively positioned, rate-sensitive stocks such as utilities. Any further signals on interest rate expectations or energy prices today could thus influence trading in PSEG around the open.
