THe SPanish market is different, because Power Companies are the place where
retired politicians are parked. Politicians know they are likely to end up in a
Power COmpany, so they treat them really, really well, in order to ensure they
are received there at the end of their political lives. It is very hard to go
wrong with Power stocks for that reason.

Also, I am more of a dividend investor myself. I understand the reasons for
non-dividend investments, but I need to know whatever I buy is actually
productive rather than something that promises growth but is not useful until
you sell it
