Canadian pipeline giant, Enbridge (NYSE: ENB) , dropped big news on Sept. 5 when it announced the $14 billion acquisition (including debt) of three natural gas utilities from Dominion Energy (NYSE: D) . The deal makes Enbridge North America's largest natural gas utility franchise.
Enbridge believes the deal is a win for shareholders, but investors didn't react favorably, sending the stock down 5.9% to a two-year low.
