One Difference

I was screening stocks and checking out their charts when I found DTE ... a little utility with a 4.75% yield. It was a typo, but one of those happy accidents that give you a different perspective.

Then, I decide to check out Con Ed (ED) which has a 4.12% yield.

Neither of these win any awards for sales or earnings growth. But as Cramer points out, "market valuation means nothing right now" ... growth is apparently not far behind. But these two have one key distinction when compared to all my growth and value picks ... their charts are not in a nose dive.
