Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, Ford Motor, PG&E, and Eaton are the five 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 frameworks. Because their revenues come from steady, often government-approved rates and consistent consumer demand, these stocks typically pay reliable dividends and exhibit lower price volatility. Investors often include them as defensive holdings to help stabilize a portfolio, particularly during economic downturns. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
