The Crock of @#$% Report v.003

7 Utilities Stocks With High Dividends That You Should Buy Now

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Looking for a safe stock to put your money in that also can generate income?

Absolutely!

Utilities stocks are generally considered safer investments, especially in times of market volatility.

Fantastic!

The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 2.13 and currently higher than the industry average, implying increased risk associated with the management of debt levels within the company. Along with this, the company manages to maintain a quick ratio of 0.48, which clearly demonstrates the inability to cover short-term cash needs.

I know that you said I should buy all seven of these stocks, you know, for the safety. Is there something bad that will happen if I opt to pass?

"generally considered safer"

Cars with airbags are generally considered safer, except when dropped out the back of flying planes. Generally speaking, an attached parachute would be considered safer. And generally speaking, a parachute larger than one intended for skydivers would be considered safer. And generally speaking, not dropping the car over densely populated areas would be considered safer. And generally speaking, not being in it at the time would be considered safer.

Generally speaking, cars dropped in such a way can be considered safer than cars not dropped in such a way.

That said, dropping cars from planes is not without its risks. If your goal truly is safety, then it might be best to not load your car up on the nearest plane in the first place. Just sayin'. ;)

I love Crock or @#$% Reports! I wish I had thought of them!

Given the current state of affairs, one could make a full time job it!

mab,

I'm glad you love them!

To be honest, they make me a bit uncomfortable. I just can't resist though. Take this one. How can a mere sarcasm report do it justice?

Someday I will look back at the first report and try to make sense of how it all started. I suspect my conclusion will be, "OMG! What a crock of @#$%!" Hahaha!! :)
