Q: Hi,
I bought this to hedge against the kind of correction that one is witnessing right now! As part of my non-correlated asset. BUT it has been dropping almost as much as the market. Today, Monday April 21st 2025) it is down 3.14 % as I type this question, nearly the same as the market! And yet my Canadian utilities are holding steady. (H,EMA,FTS).
Can you suggest about 3-5 US Utilities that hopefully will act similar to Canadian utilities. To act as non-correlated asset?

Q: Hello team 5i:

It seems that for better or for worse utilities seem to have entred into a "union" with Technolgy sector, thanks to the perceived putative need for high energy demands !

Therefore utilites espcially in the US no longer have an inverse relationship with growth stocks. So it seems to me. I thought they will play the role of a "stabilizers" for my portfolio. That has not been the case.

Any thoughts? Should I consider something else (sector or stocks) to lower the volatility? Can you give me some names, say 3 to 5 stocks in the US utility sector that are NOT involved with AI energy demand craze?

My Canadian utilites fortunatlely remain "boring" and chugging along nicely :) Of course I can collect some nice dividends plus in my non-regd account, dividen tax credit helps!

Thanks for your help as always.
