894.0. "UtiliCorp United" by SSAG::SUSSWEIN (an adrenal gland is a terrible thing to waste) Wed Jul 26 1995 17:03

    Has anyone heard of a company called "Utilicorp United"?
    
    They're the parent company of my gas company, and as a customer I'm
    eligible for their stock purchase and dividend reinvestment plan. 
    basically, it works like this:
    
    - I make an initial purchase of common stock (minimum $250) at market
    price (no commission)
    
    - I can make additional monthly purchases (minimum $50), also at market
    price with no commission.
    
    - As a shareholder, I can then join the dividend reinvestment plan. 
    Stock is bought with reinvested dividends at 5% BELOW market price.
    
    Assuming that the stock isn't a total dog this sounds like a pretty
    good deal.  Any thoughts?
