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 treatment—under regulated or franchised markets. Because these businesses generate steady cash flows from predictable, often-monopolistic operations, their stocks tend to exhibit lower price volatility and pay relatively consistent dividends. Investors often include utility stocks in portfolios seeking income stability and defensive exposure during economic downturns. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
