"They (Coal Stocks) have all started to move up in the last few days. Some are attributing this to the cold weather. But it is most likely more than that. In a previous article, I discussed the use of coal by electric utilities. With more than 70% of all utilities using coal to run their generators to produce electricity, the demand for coal is significant. The following is a list of the major coal stocks. You will notice that coal producers are not really high dividend payers [with the exception of Yanzhou Coal Mining and Fording Canadian Coal Trust], but I have included the yields for your review. If the current PE is not listed, it means recent earnings are negative.
