Even Dems Are Questioning Rep. Swalwell's Eligibility To Run For Governor Authored by Luis Cornelio via HeadlineUSA , Rep. Eric Swalwell has long maintained his primary residence in Washington, D.C ., despite representing large portions of California in Congress. Now that he is running for California governor, his apparent on-paper-only California residency is under scrutiny - even from fellow Democrats. Eric Swalwell / IMAGE: Evening Standard via YouTube Tom Steyer, a left-wing billionaire donor who is also running for the Democratic nomination for governor, called on California Secretary of State Shirley Weber to enforce the state’s residency requirements. Steyer’s campaign wrote to Shirley that Swalwell “appears to live in California on paper only” and is “unlikely to meet the basic residency requirements to run for Governor.” In a 55-page letter, Steyer’s attorneys argued that Swalwell has repeatedly failed to list a home address in campaign documents. For instance, Swalwell listed a law firm’s address in Sacramento as his address on a Candidate Intention Statement. Swalwell also designated his Eckington address in Washington, D.C., at 209 S Street NE as his principal residence in a deed of trust. Instead, Swalwell lists a California address on his voter registration form, but deed records do not show that he actually owns the property. The letter argued that “public records databases do not indicate Swalwell is a resident at that address.” The home is owned by a relative of Swalwell’s former deputy chief of staff and longtime mentor, Tim Sbranti. When Swalwell is in California, he stays in San Francisco hotels, according to campaign finance records. Steyer’s letter is not the first time Swalwell has faced accusations that he does not actually reside in California. In January, Swalwell was sued over his D.C. residency, with the lawsuit alleging that he does not live in the state and is unqualified to run for governor. “ Tom Steyer has sunk to a new low, peddling...

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, in trading on Friday, shares of Edison International (Symbol: EIX) were yielding above the 5% mark based on its quarterly dividend (annualized to $2.95), with the stock changing hands as low as $58.82 on the day. Dividends are particularly important for investors to consider, because historically speaking dividends have provided a considerable share of the stock market's total return. To illustrate, suppose for example you purchased shares of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) back on 12/31/1999 — you would have paid $146.88 per share. Fast forward to 12/31/2012 and each share was worth $142.41 on that date, a decrease of $4.67/share over all those years. But now consider that you collected a whopping $25.98 per share in dividends over the same period, for a positive total return of 23.36%. Even with dividends reinvested, that only amounts to an average annual total return of about 1.6%; so by comparison collecting a yield above 5% would appear considerably attractive if that yield is sustainable. Edison International (Symbol: EIX) is an S&P 500 company, giving it special status as one of the large-cap companies making up the S&P 500 Index. In general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company. In the case of Edison International, looking at the history chart for EIX below can help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue, and in turn whether it is a reasonable expectation to expect a 5% annual yield.

It's time for investors to start rebuilding their bond allocations, according to JPMorgan Asset Management's Bob Michele. While the U.S.-Iran war and the surge in oil prices has investors concerned, the volatility shouldn't keep them from building up their fixed-income exposure at a time when yields remain attractive, he said. In fact, the bond market has actually held up reasonably well this past week, said Michele, the firm's chief investment officer and head of global fixed income. The 10-year Treasury yield has moved higher, but it has remained in the range it's been in since September, between 3.9% and 4.3%, he noted. Bond yields move inversely to prices. Credit has also held in fairly well, with much of the concern focusing on private credit markets, he noted. As a result, he's sticking with his call to move money into fixed income, especially for those who have been under-allocated for the past few years. "We've been buying the bond market. We view it as a great diversifier and counterbalance to the equity market," Michele said. "It does give you a risk-off home, and we've been buying credit because we don't forecast a recession on the horizon." Investors have seen the equity portions of their portfolio balloon over the past few years as stocks rallied. Enthusiasm over artificial intelligence has pushed equities to record highs, with the S & P 500 gaining 16% in 2025 and more than 20% in both 2024 and 2023. While this year has seen more volatility in stocks, portfolios are still lopsided, Michele noted. "For me, having done this for a long time, I can't remember both the institutional side and the wealth management side being so underweight and under-allocated to fixed income," he said. Yet he's starting to see that change, with many of those same investors now saying they are looking for opportunities in the bond market, he noted. "You see these constant inflows into various bond vehicles as they try to diversify from their equity exposure, which has appreci...

Alarmed that Great Britain has only enough gas in storage to cover two days of consumption? Actually, Michael Shanks, the energy minister, is right that the bald statistic is not a reason to run for the hills. But he would help his case if he admitted that the long era of running a “just-in-time” approach to gas supplies looks increasingly unworkable. Shanks is obviously correct that Great Britain does not source its supplies from storage. About 75% of our gas comes from the North Sea – from domestic fields and via the 725-mile underwater Langeled pipeline from Norway – and neither source is affected by the war in Iran. As for imported liquefied natural gas (LNG), typically about 18% of supplies today, the market is disrupted now that Qatar, about a fifth of the global market, is not producing. But the rest of the market is still operating, so it’s a question of paying nosebleed rates for shipments, probably from the US, which already dominates our LNG imports. And the final pieces in “the diverse and strong energy mix”, as Shanks described it, are the two-way interconnectors to the Netherlands and Belgium that plug Great Britain’s gas system into the continent’s. But here’s the rub: while the Great Britain gas set-up looks sufficiently secure for now, the war is demonstrating two reasons why more storage looks essential if energy shocks are becoming more frequent. And transition to an intermittent renewables-heavy power system offers a third reason. First, there could be a harder price crunch, say gas experts, if the war goes on for months and the LNG market becomes so dysfunctional that continental European countries can’t refill their storage sites, which are much bigger than Great Britain’s, over the summer. That would set up a terrible dynamic for the winter in which Great Britain’s gas prices would have to trade at very fat premiums to attract flows across the interconnectors. In that case, it would be better to have our own strategic reserve to ride the bumps...

Justin Sullivan/Getty Images News PG&E ( PCG ) -1.1% in Monday's trading despite receiving an upgrade to Buy from Neutral with a $23 price target, raised from $20, at UBS, saying expected improvements in wildfire policy and affordability should drive a re-rating, and anticipated Phase 2 legislation, likely ahead of the July 2 recess, would further reduce utility liability. UBS analyst Gregg Orrill cited PG&E's ( PCG ) attractive top quartile earnings per share growth outlook of ~9% through 2030, compared to 7% priced into the stock, and improving wildfire mitigation framework, also noting the company's plans to raise its dividend payout ratio to 20% in 2028. Key catalysts in H2 2026 include legislation strengthening California’s wildfire risk framework and a favorable resolution of the electric and gas rate case, the analyst said, adding that enhanced state-level liability support could materially narrow PG&E's ( PCG ) P/E utility discount, which currently stands at 43% compared to the 5%-15% range before the 2017 wildfires. The California Earthquake Authority, the state's wildfire fund administrator, has been gathering recommendations and will make a report to the legislature April 1, which should build upon a submission from the California Public Utility Commission that was consistent with a joint investor-owned utility submission, Orrill said, adding that utilities, CPUC, and consumer advocate TURN agree that customers and utilities still carry too big a financial risk.
