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 in companies that provide essential public services—such as electricity, water, natural gas and telecommunications—under regulated pricing models. Because these firms generate steady, predictable cash flows and face limited competition, their stock prices tend to exhibit lower volatility than the broader market. Investors often favor utility stocks for their reliable dividend payouts and defensive characteristics during economic downturns. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
