MDU traded at a new 52-week high. So did UNP. But this is what really surprised me: WMB, trading at a new 52-week high today; it had been in the doldrums earlier this year. Of course, I suppose it helped that Williams Cos recently announced an increase in its dividend. ERF (Enerplus) also traded at a new high. And, of course, the next big thing, Netflix, traded at a new high. Smile. SRE did not trade at new high, but traded up more than 1 percent.

MDU's dividend in 2009 was 15.5 cents; at the end of 2013, it was 17.7 cents.
SRE's dividend in 2009 was 39 cents; at the end of 2013, it was 63 cents.
