StockCall.com Provides Stock Research on FirstEnergy, American Electric Power, Dominion Resources, Wisconsin Energy, and Entergy
New York City, New York -- (April 24, 2013)
A sharp drop in natural gas prices has immensely benefited the electric utilities industry. The sharp decline in natural gas prices came at a time when the industry was facing rising costs. In April last year, natural gas prices dropped to record low levels, prompting several electric utilities to switch from coal to natural gas to generate power. The fact that natural gas is cleaner is also helping utilities meet new environmental regulations. Utilities ended mostly higher in Tuesday’s trading session as the broad market posted gains for a third successive trading session. Among the major movers were FirstEnergy Corp. (NYSE: FE), American Electric Power Company Inc. (NYSE: AEP), Dominion Resources Inc. (NYSE: D), Wisconsin Energy Corporation (NYSE: WEC), and Entergy Corporation (NYSE: ETR). StockCall reviewed the Electric Utilities industry and chose FE, AEP, D, WEC, and ETR for its technical coverage. These free reports can be seen for free at
