I did a google search for the 10 best utility stocks. I randomly picked one - NextEra (Ticker: NEE).

Investing $10k in NEE on May 2, 2009 @ $45.28 = 220.85 share yield.

Re-investing NEE dividends every period into new shares results in an added 53.6 shares (after the last dividend payment on Feb 25 2015).

273.91 shares at today's price (currently at $100.21/share) - $27,448.52.

A good profit from the investment, BUT - this is STILL LESS than the profit gotten from a $10K investment in GE during the same time period.

Who said utility investments were better in this time period?


I keep telling myself....deep breath....count to ten....try to answer without personal attack...if available, always try to present fact to back up your opinion.
