Based on research from Miller/Howard Investments, also the author of "The Single Best Investment," I have made utilities the core sector of my portfolio. I am impressed with their performance year to date. PGN up 25.7% ... 4.6% yld D up 22.6% ... 3.7% yld SO up 18.4% ... 4.3% yld POR up 16.3% ... 4.2% yld NGG up 14.6% ... 5.8% yld PNY up 14.2% ... 3.6% yld EXC up 10.8% ... 4.6% yld NST up 8.6% ... 3.7% yld SCG up 6.7% ... 4.5% yld S&P 500 ... down 2.3% This portfolio of utilities, year to date, is up 15.4%. PNY also provides a 5% discount on reinvested shares. Anybody can make money in an up market, the key is not to lose it in a down market. That's why I have as many utilities as I do. I love this sector. Miller/Howard, in his research, has confirmed that utilities have been one of the long term higher producing sectors. He believes the fewer companies you own, the more utilities you need. Ha! Now, this is important! The above results DO NOT include the dividends paid all year. The results listed above are strictly share price. Think about that!
