Of the 11 broad sectors of the market's benchmark — the S&P 500 Index — the Utility sector declined more than 11%. Wall Street's bull-run continues in 2024 except for a brief setback in April. Cooling economic data, especially the labor market data, a slow GDP growth rate and a slowly declining inflation rate boosted investors' confidence in risky assets like equities. However, surprisingly, the defensive utilities sector has become a major part of this year's rally so far. Year to date, of the 11 broad sectors of the market's benchmark — the S&P 500 Index — the utilities sector has rallied 12.8%, only second to a 16.9% surge in the Communication Services Select Sector SPDR (XLC). So far, the utilities sector has outpaced the growth-oriented Technology Sector (12.1%) and the S&P 500 Index (12.3%) itself. The primary driver of the 2024 rally is market participants' expectation of at least one 25-basis point cut in the Fed fund rate by the central bank this year. Utility operation
