National Grid, CenturyLink and SolarCity Shares are Power Plays

National Grid is attractively priced and pays a nice dividend in a low yield environment, said James Cox, Managing Partner at Harris Financial Group. Cox added that National Grid is better positioned than other utilities because it has operations in both the UK and United States. He is also bullish on shares of SolarCity, saying that lower oil prices will not hurt the stock because rooftop solar installations are a game-changer. Cox said SolarCity customers can now afford to add solar panels to their homes and the company will also finance it. Finally, he is positive on CenturyLink's stock because it is converting wireline customers to broadband at higher margins.
