    Vistra Corp. CEO James Burke purchased 2,000 shares at $135.00 per share on August 24, 2026, increasing his total beneficial interest to approximately 1.2 million shares worth $167.63 million. The purchase follows a 29% stock decline over the past 12 months and signals executive confidence in the company's valuation, particularly given Vistra's role in powering AI data centers through its Helix Digital Infrastructure joint venture with Nvidia.
