I do like SGU! Originally purchased for the yield after they reinstated their pay out. Not looking for a raise which is probably why I missed the one in January. 8.8% yield on cost. My account shows a 37% gain, divvies not included of course. Valid point with KFT. I'll strike it. My starting point was definitely double digit dividend increases. I do need to look at more utilities with higher yield, moderate growth. CVX - yield + div. growth under 10. Should be some oil in there though. Maybe the best of the sector, need to check it out. Foreign tax on the dividends in an IRA are lost, and what major company isn't global these days. Would have to be really compelling to me. Adding TPZ. Thanks for the input. It is what makes this a great board imho.
