Watchlist

With about 3 million utility customers across Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, Entergy (ETR, $95.12) is a case study in why investors are drawn to this sector. ETR maintains a large scale and is effectively a regional monopoly, making it very difficult for any other company to disrupt its operations. It also is diversified in its output, as it generates electricity through a wide array of power plants that span natural gas, oil, nuclear, coal, hydro and solar power sources. The icing on the cake, of course, is a yield that's more than double the typical stock in the S&P 500. Revenue doesn't seem likely to move significantly in the coming year or two; however, the utility continues to improve earnings per share based on modest increases in prices and efficiency. That doesn't add up to a lot of growth, but it does equal unrivaled stability. And Wall Street seems to like what it sees. Wolfe Research recently upgraded ETR to Outperform (equivalent of Buy) after a nice earnings surprise for Q3. Meanwhile, Argus Research recently reiterated its Buy rating, saying "Over the long term, we like the company’s strategy of investing in regulated utilities to replace aging infrastructure and improve reliability."
