Power and Utility Stocks Hold Firm in Risk-Off Trading

While most sectors registered declines on July 11, power and utility stocks demonstrated relative resilience. With investors turning cautious over macro uncertainties, these high-yielding, stable-cash-generation sectors offered a defensive alternative to more cyclical plays.

Their outperformance reflects a strategic flight-to-safety sentiment, as traders rebalanced portfolios away from trade-sensitive industries. These stocks continued to benefit from steady regulatory frameworks and supportive demand forecasts.

As volatility persists, power utilities are likely to remain in focus, offering stable dividend streams and consistent cash flows—critical in a backdrop of global tension and economic

unpredictability.
