Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, Eaton, Ford Motor, and Enbridge are the five Utility stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Utility stocks represent shares in companies that supply essential services such as electricity, water, natural gas and sewage. Because these firms operate in heavily regulated markets with relatively inelastic demand, they tend to generate stable cash flows and pay consistent dividends.
