The iShares S&P/TSX Capped Energy Index ETF (XEG-T) is regarded as a strong choice for Canadian oil exposure, often recommended for investors seeking growth from the energy sector. Experts advocate for its diversification benefits, particularly for those looking to retain exposure while researching specific stocks. Although some believe any short-term benefits to the Canadian oil market may be transient, they acknowledge that current geopolitical factors are driving prices higher, making XEG a timely investment. The ETF's recent performance suggests a breakout to new highs, with many experts viewing it as the start of a bull market in energy. Overall, XEG provides a reasonable risk/reward profile, especially for those bullish on energy prices in the coming years.

DON'T BUY
Not a balanced portfolio. SU is 20% of portfolio. You are just buying a few stocks.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick March 4/10. Up 11.44%.) Since energy has come back, he would consider buying this at around this level.
COMMENT
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. This one has the large producers. If you want something that is a little less well known but more volatile with a higher return, he would suggest the BMO Junior Oil Index ETF (ZJO-T)
HOLD
Oil prices went down. Nothing wrong with XEG. It is diversified, but you go down with the sectors. Just wait it out.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 28/11. Down 10.09%.) S&P/TSX Capped Energy ETF. Sold about halfway through April. Chart shows it has now broken through some major supports. Not a good pattern.
TOP PICK
S&P/TSX Capped Energy ETF. Tended to outperform the S&P and the TSX over the last 21 years. Technically there was a strong consolidation period followed by a very positive breakout trend. Good support at $19.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick April 9/10. Up 12.11%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. A core holding. A little careful when he Buys because if the oils have run up, he prefers to keeps oils in the low $80’s.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick March 4/10. Up 10.17%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Yield of 2.1%
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Jan 25/10, Up 2%) Was hoping for a bigger pop. Still likes the position and will continue to hold it.
DON'T BUY
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. A lot of ups and downs in the chart and you can almost look at it from a trading perspective. Chart is showing lower highs. He would prefer individual energy names such as Pacific Rubiales (PRE-T) or Penn West (PWT.UN-T).
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 15/09. Down 7.6%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF.
TOP PICK
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. A call that might be a bit early but energy stocks have been beaten down. These are companies that are profitable at current energy prices and have seen their balance sheets and better cost structures.
