Following msIRA who made this purchase after hearing Bill Gross speak about the attractiveness of utility stocks. The idea is that utilities are inflation protected and highly regulated, but current dividend yields are high. In the case of Excelon the divident yield is a whopping 4.5%. Other valuation measures are also promising. Excelon is selling for a p/bv of 2.54. By comparison, its average p/bv over the last 5 years is 4. Excelon should grow with the economy or maybe a little bit faster. Return on equity has averaged 20% over the last 5 years and sales growth has averaged approximately 7%. The debt equity ratio is reasonable and the company appears financially solvent. Based on all of the above, a p/bv ratio of 4 seems like a reasonable target.

This issue seems out of favor relative to its yield and steady EPS, or "oversold" as the jargon goes. Therefore I'll take a CAPS bet on it at this point, though I'm not a buyer in real life here (I already profitably own D, EPD, and OKS as far as utilities go).

Dividend stock with a reasonable p/e & dividend growth, plus beaten down recently. Looks like a buy

Consistent cash flow and solid dividend make this a good Total Return pick. Bought for my personal account and will track in CAPS.

Carbon emission regulations are going to get tight and nuclear power is going to be a profit generating machine.

EXC has a very high rate of return on capital. It is currently reinvesting its excess cash in its electrical generation and distribution facilities. Look for earnings growth, but not near term.

They are attempting to acquire NRG Energies aggressively. They will probably do so. Good acquisition, will see gains from developments from it.
