The reviews regarding the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLE-N) reveal a mix of optimism and caution surrounding the outlook for the price of oil. One expert predicts a price increase to $70-80 by year-end, emphasizing the need for refilling inventories globally and the logistical challenges associated with moving oil from the Gulf. Another expert underscores that purchasing this fund is less about the future price of oil and more about the historical performance of companies within the fund, particularly how they reward shareholders and increase production. Additionally, the sector received an upgrade based on factors like healthy earnings growth, reasonable valuations, and geopolitical isolation, but acknowledges potential risks to oil prices. This multifaceted perspective reflects the complexities of the energy market and the underlying factors influencing this investment.

COMMENT

Historically the US energy sector does very well from around the end of January right through until the 2^nd week of May. Energy stocks in the US have a high correlation to the price of gasoline. What is happening to the price of gasoline will pretty well indicate what will happen to this ETF. (See Top Picks)

BUY

Oil and Gold Correcting? If you are making a trade that will last the next 2 or 3 weeks, you could make money buying at the bottom of the range, but over the next 2 or 3 years it will trade in a range.

BUY

If you are going to have a bull market in energy, which he believes we will, an ETF is probably a better thing to do than individual stock picking.

DON'T BUY

If he thought the price of oil was going to be dramatically higher, he might consider buying this. To get this to happen, you have to see a real strengthening in the world economy and he doesn't see that anytime soon. If he were going to do this, he would write Covered Calls or Put Options on it. Doing it through the US you have the currency issue giving more risk.

TOP PICK

Has been overdone on the downside. Valuation is about 10X earnings. Pays decent dividends. Technically, the momentum is not confirming the decline in the price indicating that the selling pressure is diminishing.

TOP PICK

Chart shows an obvious uptrend. There could be a currency play here as well. His company is not exactly bullish on the stock market and has a yellow flag up. Has just barely broken out.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jan 24/07. Up 9.5%.) This is broken out with the oils. Very over bought at this time.

TOP PICK

Has been trading in a range between $52 and $62 and will use this to layer Buys. (Ed. I think.)

DON'T BUY

Historically, the best time to buy energy stocks is from the end of January to the end of May. At the end of the cycle now.
