Cheapest on Free Cash Flow: Utilities
Utilities value, measured in real cash
Updated August 30, 2026
Every sector trades at its own going rate for a dollar of free cash flow, so a market-wide “cheap” list mostly ranks sectors, not stocks. This slice asks the sharper question: which Utilities names are cheap against their own peers’ price? The sector’s median multiple is 30.8× — everything here trades meaningfully below it. As on the main board, cheap can be earned (cyclical peaks, secular decline), so the multiple is where the work starts, not where it ends.
