Utility stocks are shares of companies that provide essential public services—such as electricity, natural gas and water—often operating within regulated frameworks. Because demand for these services remains relatively stable regardless of economic cycles, utility stocks typically offer predictable cash flows and higher-than-average dividend yields. For investors seeking income and lower volatility, they’re often considered defensive holdings in a diversified portfolio. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Utility stocks within the last several days.
