During the recent turmoil they have proven to be the strongest. A fact which has been noted by the IMF and the G7.
Strong underpinnings and good consistent dividend payers. They can be bought on the NYSE as well as the Toronto exchange.

I second The Dividend Guy on AT&T (T), which is not a utility, and has a pretty high payout ratio. The telecom business requires high capex and T and VZ have so far gained customers from Sprint. Once Sprint turns around, T and VZ would suffer.

Look at what happened to Bank of America and Citigroup investors (I owned both of them – same mistake). I would really argue the AT&T inclusion in this list – fundamentals or not you cannot argue with poor customer service that is known the world over. Someone in Berlin, Germany asked me why AT&T was so bad in the U.S.!!!
