However, you wouldn't know that from looking at the second-quarter numbers of natural gas pipeline giant Williams Companies (NYSE: WMB). It delivered steady results during the period, which kept its 8%-yielding dividend on a firm foundation. It fully expects that trend to continue, given the durability of its business model and the visible growth it sees ahead as market conditions improve.
