		<description><![CDATA[U.S.electric utility segment includes electric, natural gas pipeline and distributors, water, and independent power producers. The segment was among the most stable sectors in fiscal 2011 in terms of return. Fiscal 2011 witnessed continued volatility from the European debt crisis leading the U.S. Federal Reserve to reduce its growth forecast, raising projections for unemployment and leaning on buying more mortgage debt to tide over a troubled economy. The year has been hard on investors with major indexes registering low performances. The European debt crisis that plagued the markets last year will continue to worry investors in the coming period. In such a scenario we are hopeful about dividend paying utilities acting as a proxy to the asset classes of treasury bonds and gold. Utilities’ usefulness in an investor’s portfolio in ]]></description>

SABESP is a public water and sewage services provider in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The company is one of the largest players in the industry having distributed water to approximately 23.6 million people and provided sewage services to more than 20.2 million people as of fiscal year 2010. Long-term prospects of SABESP seems bright as the company targets to add roughly 1.3 million new water connections and 1.7 million new sewage connections, improving its sewage coverage to 90%, through 2019. Water loss ratio is expected to be 14% by December 2014 compared with 26% at the end of March 2011. The company makes a constant effort ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Investment U’s Monday, May 9, 2011 I haven’t written much about solar recently, and for good reason: There really hasn’t been much to write about. Many U.S. solar panel companies have gone belly-up, like EPV Solar, whose intellectual property was purchased by New Millennium Solar Equipment Corporation. Others, like Evergreen Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: ESLR), have outsourced their manufacturing operations overseas. Even that hasn’t helped this struggling U.S. manufacturer, whose shares are trading for just over a $1. Still others have merged with or been bought out by larger competitors, like Advanced Solar. Running out of money, it was acquired in November of 2009 by Applied Materials (Nasdaq: AMAT). Or OptiSolar, which was acquired for $400 million by First Solar, Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR) in March of 2009. But ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sao Paulo, Brazil-based Companhia de Saneamento Basico do Estado de Sao Paulo, or SABESP’s (SBS) net income for the third quarter 2010 jumped a 129.8% year over year to R$449.8 million (US$255.6 million), or R$1.97 per share (US$2.24 per ADR). Earnings per ADR fell short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of US$2.59 per ADR. The net income rise was attributable to higher revenues and fall in financial expense, offset partially by a slight increase in operating expenses. Revenue Considering the top line, net operating revenues (net of COFINS and PASEP taxes) of R$1,835.6 million (US$1,043.0 million above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of US$1,009 million) increased 12.7% year over year.

		<description><![CDATA[Judith Martin, The Investment U Research Team Water, water everywhere… and not a drop to drink. Though the earth is 70.8% water, only 2.5% is potable freshwater, the majority of which can be found only in glacial ice. This leaves less than 1% of the world’s water supply for its 6.87 billion human inhabitants, crops, and livestock. Even worse, our tiny portion of the world’s water is becoming increasingly polluted and is consumed at unsustainable rates. Fortunately, Paris based Veolia Environnement (NYSE: VE) has everything it takes to help us avoid the looming global water shortage and pad our portfolio. With operations in 66 countries, Veolia provides water and wastewater management, transportation, and energy services to countries in desperate need of fresh water.

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Advisory Panelist, The Oxford Club A few weeks ago, during a particularly bad cold snap, we had a pipe freeze underneath our 200-year-old farmhouse, causing us to go without water for a few days. I eventually managed to unfreeze the pipe, but there was no question it was disruptive for a busy household of four. Here in the United States, we don’t realize how much we take our fresh water supply for granted, until it’s suddenly cut off. We’re used to turning on the faucet and there it is. But for the folks in California, 2009 is shaping up to be a big fresh water disaster in the making. Last Thursday, state water officials reported that the snow pack in the Sierra Nevada Mountains is only 61% ]]></description>
