Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, and Ford Motor are the three Utility stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Utility stocks are shares of companies that provide essential public services—such as electricity, natural gas, water and sewage, and sometimes telecommunications. Because demand for these services remains relatively stable regardless of economic conditions, utility stocks tend to offer steady cash flows and higher-than-average dividend yields, making them a defensive choice for income-oriented investors. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
