Sure. Bought a few a year ago and am making out like a
bandit. With the exception of one foreign electric utility,
I wouldn't touch them today and might be selling some.
They're overpriced.

Warren Buffett is bullish on utilities....

No! That\'s not a positive comment! :-)

You & I trade differently. I think you are kind of \"buy & hold\"
investor.
I\'m not. I\'m a trader.
But no worries. Market has place for both of us! :-)

If you're trying to pump up the price of your recent
purchase, leave me out. :-)

These days, this is probably so for the greater part.
In the last several months I have been incorporating a more
rigid Benjamin Graham/Value/Contrarian philosophy into my
approach. That's new.

Yessir. Let that price oscillate down to my value range, and
I'm in. :-)

Okay. You're out! :-)
BTW it is impossible for one trader to pump price up for the WHOLE
sector using board like MIMF.
Maybe you could do it for a small OTC stock. But for a BIG sector like
Utilities its not possible.
Also BTW I'm buying today. My trade will settle TODAY at close. So
evenif I could possibly do it, I have no interest in "pumping" price up
today. :-)

Your integrity is noted. :-)
I bought my utilities thinking they'd most likely be dogs
but pretty safe ones an with good income.
Well what do you know; diversity works.
