Tesla, Berkshire Hathaway, and Ford Motor are the three Utility stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Utility stocks represent shares in companies that provide essential public services—such as electricity, water or natural gas—and are regulated to ensure reliable delivery and pricing. Because demand for these services remains relatively consistent regardless of economic conditions, utility stocks tend to generate stable cash flows and often pay above-average dividends. Investors seeking income and lower volatility frequently include utilities in their portfolios. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
