You know what? We are fed up with discussing what a tough year 2002 was for the broad electric utility industry. We are tired of hearing management plead with the financial community about restoring investor confidence, and pledging a long-term back-to-basics approach. We are sick of hearing about the short-sellers, the rating agencies, the tough economy, the weakness in power prices, and everything else that has been used to explain the volatility in both the debt and equity markets in 2002. Enough already! It's May 2003--in other words, 2002 is five months removed--both the credit and equity markets have moved (again), and, in my humble opinion, investors would like to hear about what's next, not what was. So, what is next?
