I inherited this stock over 10 years ago and seen the share prices go up and down over the years. My shares have split 3 times since I first held this and the company has a strong history of continous dividend payments. While the market right now is… More

The economy is bad, and it's getting worse. The P/E of this company is high and the current ratio is low. The double whammy is that this company will not only have trouble getting financing, but it's customers (people in general) are getting hurt… More

The economy is bad, and it's getting worse. The P/E of this company is high and the current ratio is low. The double whammy is that this company will not only have trouble getting financing, but it's customers (people in general) are getting hurt with the economy.

I inherited this stock over 10 years ago and seen the share prices go up and down over the years. My shares have split 3 times since I first held this and the company has a strong history of continous dividend payments.

While the market right now is volatile and the economy is so so, YORW serves an area that is attractive to a growing number of young homeowners who commute to work in MD and currently is upgrading their infrastructure.

The water rates for the counties YORW serves is set by the state so each time they increase the rates, YORW wins. Recently the state delayed the latest hike but it is inevitable that they will raise it. Just a question of when.

I can see this stock going back up into the high teens 5 to 8 years from now. It has always been a slow riser but neverless a steady performer.

One of the few times, I got out at the top of a stock! I will get back in YORW if it sinks low enough, which it looks like it might. Got in for the dividend which really helped my score!
