Following streetflame & anticitrade on this one

6% dividend yield and offered through a direct stock purchase plan with no transaction fees. Can add to shares with additional investments as small as $25. Bought in May not long after price drop because of dividend cut. In "Plugging Into Utilities" by Donald L Cassidy (1993) studies by the author clearly demonstrate the best time to buy a utility is immediately following a dividend cut. Indeed, he even rates a dividend cut as a BUY signal. Currently rated four stars by Standard & Poors.

Take a look at the volume on this stock. Volume goes up when the stock price drops, but is otherwise fairly flat. looks like a lot of selling pressure here, for the next few months anyway...

Even before Waxman-Markey passed in the House, Ameren was on TV in the Quad CIties area talking about how they will be raising their prices for energy. While this will boost their profits, I think it will have a negative impact on their stock.
They don't (in these commercials at least) seem too interested in trying to improve and use renewable energies, but do seem interested in keeping things the way they were-- or penalizing their customers for the change.

This is one of the companies that make electricity and does not just deliver it.

utility that keeps investing in green energy

Considering Book value, earnings, and market cap...this should beat the market in 5 years.

Utility sector is a good choice for value and for defense. This company has low debt, good margin, and a good dividend.

Electric companies to make better revenue from lower NG prices for the first 3 quarters of 2009....Price cheap....

Solid cash flow, solid dividend and solidly oversold. What more can I say? Solid.

People will pay to heat and cool their homes in a bad economy. AEE is in one of the most stable markets, and has a growing investment in renewable energy.

I believe that in 2009 the MO state government will change the CWIP law to benefit Ameren, who wants to build a new power plant. This is the catalyst for increased future profits. In the meantime, the dividend income will allow this stock to outperform the S&P.

strong utility company, trading under book value with a PE under 5. Should do better than the SP.

Huge Dividend, $2.54/share. Getting approvals for an additional nuclear facility at its Callaway nuclear power plant site. The community is behind this decision. The company is spending to make its coal facilities pollution free and the community is behind this too. It makes for an easier sell when the Company can show that the extra charges have gone into "feel-good" projects and the lights stay on! These guys know what they are doing and are making money at it. Also, AEE is one of lowest cost utilities in the country. So that leaves plenty of upside sell room if rate increases are needed.

Dividend almost as good as BAC before they cut theirs. Now way better than BAC. Looks like the rate increase for Illinois and Missouri is going thru. Due to the bloody week the market had, was a great buy, it was trading at almost a all time low when bought it. And is still a great buy at 30 a share.
It's a utility and isn't going anywhere, pays a great dividend and the market provided a great buying opportunity.

This utility stock has plummeted sharply in early '08 due to selling off portions of the company and other reasons. At today's price of $41.96, it has lost 25% since last Dec. and is a bargain. In the past it was a very stable stock and should turn around soon once the '08 Midwest flooding has subsided (don't buy it until they have cleaned up the mess first).
