Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Opportunities for rate base growth at Sempra's utilities are above average, and California and Texas regulation generally allows timely recovery of capital expenditures and a dynamic cost of capital.

Bears

Sempra's nonregulated businesses bring increased risk. Income investors looking for low-risk dividends may find less appeal than from pure-play regulated utilities.
