  I have a 'Buy' rating for Avista under $38, with a fair value estimate of $42.12, offering ~10% upside. Avista's regulated utility business, stable dividend yield, and modest growth support my investment thesis, despite lower ROE versus peers. My options strategy—selling puts and put spreads—offers leveraged returns, while I remain cautious due to illiquid options.
