I would warn u all to be careful <ng>... there is quite a bit of uncertainty with all of those --

first there is regulatory uncertainty

second it is not a given that unregulated suppliers are going to continue to rake in the dough -- some have both nat gas and good generation, but some are pretty leveraged, too -- having both and size isn't going to guarantee more profits -- they are already priced much much higher than utilities -- one day the build out on capacity in other parts of the country will be an overbuild -- if it happens conncurrent with a recession the volatility in electric prices could flatten out

these guys make most of their money in 40 - 60 days of the year. You may be buying yesterday's news ...
