Utility stocks are shares of companies that provide essential public services—such as electricity, natural gas, water and sewage treatment—to residential, commercial and industrial customers. Because these businesses operate in regulated markets with predictable demand, their revenues and dividends tend to be steadier and less volatile than those of many other sectors. Investors often hold utility stocks for income stability and defensive portfolio diversification. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
