Utilities EBITDA
is a big snore; so much for the great WGL. I am impressed with the midstream contribution to EBITDA. Where is the dividend increase?

UTILITIES would be up 11% yoy due to weak exchange rate. UTILITIES are meant to be boring, safe and especially predictable. You can sleep at night and collect 4 to 10% growth.

Dividend increases come in December and are predicted based on changes to EBITDA as Randy indicated earlier

The yield is already lousy, and if SP goes up significantly (it won't), yield could drop below 4%. Not much reason to buy it for the dividend when there are better stocks out there.

Really...? Folks buy dividend stocks for 2-4% payouts as a rule... You are not used to seeing ALA get respect!

You won't even keep up with inflation with dismal performance like that.

I posted just the other day that the ceiling price was 26 until the dividend was raised but now a larger increase will be anticipated. A 4% dividend is not at all lousy for a utility.

Fair point. If I were short ALA I might find all kinds of negative things to say about ALA. Hmmm. How are your shorts BSdetector??

Hey Johnwith30pumps: I don't short anything but I lost patience with ALA a long, long time ago.
