PCG had problems even before the wildfires, as it had a frozen dividend from 2010-2015. So that says to me it wasn't necessarily a one-off event. It now owns a BB- credit rating and operates in a state that is lawsuit happy and with burdensome taxes and regulations.

That doesn't mean it is without value, it just means it's not something I'm interested in messing around with.

Both of you shared similar thoughts and that makes sense. Thank you. Appriciate it. I do have a small position in PCG now. In the past I have had better returns in SO and DUK. That's said PCGU(convertible, pays ~4-5%) is the only utility I hold right now and probably won't add a lot more than I hold. ( unless We count T as utility too).
