What I don’t understand is, on one hand we are told the stock market will crash and yet on the other we are told ways of investing in the stock market. Oxymoron or paradox? I'm considering investing over 150k, but I'm uncertain about risk mitigation strategies.
I think a good investment portfolio should have three basic things: ETFs for diversification, dividend stocks for cash flow, and leading tech stocks. With your budget, it's a good idea to talk to a fiduciary financial advisor for expert advice.
This is why I entrusted a fiduciary with my investment decisions. Many underestimate advisors until emotions lead to losses. My advisor crafted a tailored strategy aligning with my long-term goals, guiding entry and exit points for the equities I focus on. This has grown my portfolio to over $850k. My personal best so far
Interesting. I think this is something I should do, but I've been stalling for a long time now. I don't really know which firm to work with; I feel they are all the same but it seems you’ve got it all worked out with the firm you work with so i surely wouldn’t mind a recommendation..
My CFA, Judith B. Richards, is a renowned figure in her field. I recommend researching her name online; you’ll find all her credentials and everything you need to work with a reliable professional. With many years of experience, she is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
Insightful... I curiously looked up her name on the internet and I found her site and i must say she seems proficient, wrote her an email outlining my objectives. Thanks for sharing..
The Fed's talk of interest rate cut leaves me pondering what stocks to buy now and when do I sell? I'm unsure how to properly allocate $500K to achieve an optimal portfolio considering the uncertainty of stock prices and the economy, my goal is $3m for retirement.
I completely understand your concerns. Navigating market uncertainties can be challenging. It might be beneficial consulting with a financial advisor to provide personalized insights based on your specific situation.
Agreed, I always emphasize the significance of having an advisor. This has not only help to revamp my portfolio but has also kept me afloat since the covid-19 outbreak to date. I'm only about 10% shy of my first million dollar after subsequent investments.
are you for real? who is the professional that guides you please? enthused about investing for my eventual retirement but dont know how to go about it, for now I only invest in my 401k through my employer and gains are quite slow

Surprised to see her mentioned here! She tailors trading courses to suit beginners’ needs and really knows her stuff. Her advice has been invaluable to my trading journey-definitely worth it!
Kicking off this year with such high hopes, especially with Bitcoin, has been a journey.

Successful investing is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.
Government policy has thrown the future under the bus for decades. The day of judgment is near. I predict an 80% drop in the stock market. Investors will abandon stocks in favor of real estate. There will be no money in banks... You must devise a strategy for survival.
We have been in a depression since 2008, the yield curve has already uninverted, global recession indicators are flashing alarm for well over a year, and absolutely nobody could pull us out of the hell coming regardless of party.
I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as I am ready to go the passive income path.!!
ASHLEY GARNER ABBOTT a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further... She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market
Excellent share! Curiously inputted Ashley Garner Abbott on the web, spotted her consulting page ranked top, and was able to schedule a call session. I've seen commentaries about advisors, but not one looks this phenomenal.
I've always been fascinated by investing, but when I tried stock investing early this year, it hasn't been as successful as I expected. However, I keep seeing good news about the stock market. What are the best strategies for less risk and more gains?
As a stock market investor i believe investing can lead to financial freedom by growing your wealth over time. Also having an investment advisor is key in this journey, offering expert guidance and tailored strategies to help you navigate the market and achieve your financial goals. Hoping to diversify more in 2025
The truth is, the role of an investment advisor can often be overlooked but should never be underestimated. After facing a significant portfolio loss in 2020 during the COVID pandemic while trying to manage my investments on my own, I decided to reach out to an investment advisor. At that time, I had about $126K left in my portfolio. Now, without having to lift a finger, I'm semi-retired, working only 7.5 hours a week, and I'm just 15% short of my $1 million retirement goal thanks to my subsequent investments.
My CFA is Judith B. Richards, a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
Thank you so much for the suggestion! I really needed it. I looked her up on Google and explored her website; she has an impressive background in investments. I've sent her an email, and I hope to hear back from her soon!
Sven, I would be more interested in analysis of oil mid caps like MPC, DVN, TRGP, FANG, WES. They have more upside potential as they're not giants like CVX or OXY. Those are too big to 2x or 3x. That's for Warren to play with. Us, peasants need more risky plays but midcaps have margin of safety. I don't know why Warren bought OXY, where COP is way better value then OXY. Retail investors won't be interested in giants but will be interested in oil small and mid caps. Just my 2 cents If you're interested in covering oil mid caps in the future hence your audience is retail. Thank you for great analysis, Seb.
I've had my eye on DVN for a while in the $40s, I'm glad I held off, beat down hard this year it looks to hit a major support line at 30, think I'll start a position and ride the div.
Warren and Charlie Munger responded at annual meetings on why they chose OXY. Charlie (2022?) talked about OXY having a truly dominant position in the Permian Basin, which insulated their production from overseas or international turmoil; both of them praised the current CEO very very highly; Warren (same meeting) mentioned OXT's investment in other areas and that management wanted to pay down their debt in acquiring Crowne. (I'm guessing that they anticipated shortages over time, rather than such rising production.) BRK paid a premium compared to the current price, got preferred stock, and had an option to buy more. I'd largely agree with Sven that OXY is a "watch" (although I'm currently down in my OXY position--I didn't do the analysis that Sven talks about!).
Because they buy the company not stocks. All the major players like, CVX, OXY, OXM all diverse and invested in renewable energy. Transition from oil to renewable energy is not easy and takes time. . So it makes sense to invest in the current profitable company while waiting for promising future profit then searching for newbies.
Bought PBR in the 8 dollar range. got all back in div since. Also have a small cap Norwegian company, and i like but dont own yet Harbour energy (London)
What I understand from this is that it would be the right time to purchase oil, but since this is out of reach for the small-time investor? What are the oil ETFs or stocks that one can purchase in view of 2025?
Bitcoin through 2025, then high-yield ETFs through the bear market 26'-27'-that''s my plan. I'll be buying more TSLA too. Remember to always work with a knowledgeable person in the financial market when starting out to avoid getting burnt. my two cents.
DCA is the golden term. My dollar portfolio is made up of 15% PLTR, 15% TSLA, 25% NVDA, 15% VOO, and 30% in digital assets, credits to my advisor. I've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends this year alone. It's sure getting better with the Trump economy.
Personally, I take guidance from a well-spoken advisor, "Caroline Suzan Olson." She's quite known in her field of work with over two decades of experience.
Excellent share! Curiously inputting Caroline Suzan Olson on the web, I spotted her consulting page ranked top and was able to schedule a call session. I've seen commentaries about advisors, but not one looks this phenomenal.
I’ve saved up $167K in my emergency fund and am ready to start investing. Thinking about value stocks-feels like bargain hunting for my future. Any tips for a newbie looking to invest responsibly?
Not bad for a starting point, big spender! But before you toss that $167k at bargain-bin stocks, maybe hit pause. My financial advisor once saved me from a dumpster fire portfolio I was about to build. Seriously, getting professional advice turned my scattered ideas into a solid plan. You should consider it!
You’ve got me thinking now. I have some cash set aside and really want to start investing, but finding a reliable investment advisor feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. How do you know who’s trustworthy and not just selling empty promises?
"There are a handful of CFAs. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with “Victoria Louisa Saylor” for some years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s known in her field-look her up."
Thank you for the lead. I curiously searched Victoria up and her webpage popped up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Cheers!
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month 2024. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. thanks to Charlotte Miller for helping me achieve this
I'm celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today. started this journey with 6k. I have invested on time and also with the right terms now I have time for my family and the life ahead of me
She is my family's personal broker and also a personal broker in many families I'm United States, she's a licensed broker and a FINRA AGENT in United states
I just withdrew my profits a week ago, To be honest it was an amazing feeling when the profits hits my wallet I wish I could reinvest but, too much bills
I’m 46 and have about $225k liquid in savings which I plan to put towards becoming a homeowner, but based on the current high prices on real estate, do you suggest I hold from buying and look at dividend paying stocks instead?
After studying the trajectory of great assets like real estate, dividend paying stocks and gold, my conclusion is to buy and invest in what you can afford today
The role of advisors should not be overlooked . Personally, my job doesn't permit me the time to analyze stocks, thus the use of a reputable advisor. Not to brag but my $1m portfolio has annualized an average 55% ROI since beginning of last year
I’m cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. You may consider independent financial advisors like ‘’Elizabeth Louise Greak’’. I've worked with her for barely 2 years now and I'd gladly commend her exemplary service on a public post. You can search her name online to book an appointment
Hi Sven First thank you for the great details on your opinion on oil and gas company. I was lucky to follow your advice on oil company in 2020 end... I want to ask you if you could do a video of CNQ and would love to know your opinion on Canadian oil stock. Appreciate you
thanks sven for the video, had always been a fan, especially in the current richly valued US environment! could you share some of your thoughts on MPC?
Considering Brazil is a BRICS participant, I’d be cautious with an overweighted PBR position, personally. The business, itself, has great margin and the dividend is really attractive. Given the uncertainty with war and geopolitical tensions between NATO and non-NATO countries, it’s a risky play long term but is very rewarding if nothing bad happens.
Knowing that the profits of oil companies are directly dependent upon price per barrel, I think it's best to invest when their's a significant dip in price per barrel and with it share price.
Observing the market’s fluctuations highlights how fast things can shift. In this environment, strategic and informed trading isn’t optional-it’s essential. Caution is just as important as ambition. This commitment to ongoing learning is truly motivating. I’ve focused heavily on active trading, which offers a safer approach to navigating market volatility. Through this strategy, I’ve grown my nest egg from $87k to $246k. I’m especially thankful for Aldona Šabanienė’s tactics and strategies, which have been instrumental in my success.
Successful trading necessitates experience, a robust strategy, and thorough preparation. Understanding buy/sell ratios, recognizing market leaders, and implementing diversification are essential for risk mitigation.
Bitcoin's role as a store of value and its potential for future growth make it an attractive investment option. BTC trading can be a thrilling way to participate in this digital asset's journey.
Looks to be hitting support at $30, I was looking at it in the $40s and I'm glad I held off, I think I'm going to take a small position as it pays a decent div and see where oil/natural gas prices go.
From what I gather, now might be the perfect time to invest in oil. However, for small-time investors, direct oil purchases aren’t exactly accessible. What are some oil ETFs or stocks worth considering with an eye on 2025?
Outstanding ETF advice! ETFs ought to be purchased and held for a long time. Regularly investing in a single ETF is what I would advise. I've witnessed people purchase several exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that essentially track the same item, which does not diversify a portfolio. Purchase, for instance, an ETF that tracks the S&P 500, into which you would deposit xUSD each month and hold (leave alone) for more than 20 years. There will undoubtedly be market booms and busts during that time, but persevere and keep onto your investments until you're prepared for retirement, estate planning, etc.
Picking stocks that can thrive in inflationary environments is crucial. To shield your portfolio from inflation’s impact, diversifying across asset classes like stocks, bonds, and real estate is a smart strategy. I’ve even seen people make up to $500k in a single month during high inflation-it's definitely possible with the right approach!
One effective strategy is to invest in assets that perform well during inflation. Another key approach is focusing on companies that can pass on price hikes to their customers. It's also crucial to keep your portfolio diversified. It might be a smart move to consult with a financial advisor who can help you create a tailored investment strategy based on your unique goals and risk tolerance.
I used to manage my stock portfolio on my own, but despite not making significant gains, I also avoided losses. Then, out of nowhere, 2008 hit, and I watched 50% of my savings disappear in a matter of months. That was the wake-up call, I allisonCamilleShaw hired a financial advisor. Since then, I’ve been learning a ton about the stock market, and it’s paid off-I’ve made up to $1M in returns!
@HenryAbraham-x6f I first discovered Camille in an interview, reached out, and haven’t looked back since. She’s been guiding me with precise entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. If you're interested in having expert guidance, a quick online search of her name will lead you to more info. I’ve been following her market moves, and I’ve never regretted it!
Thank you for your great analysis again Sven. Would love your opinion on AMD. It is a growth stock but I think there is also a value play te be done now that the stock is trading so low? Conservative management, almost no debt and pretty undervalued with a bright looking future.
I would argue that "ugly" is what we have right now with Ecopetrol. Down 65% from June 2022, trading at levels not seen since the Covid crash and the 2016 oil market crash. Earning $4 billion USD with a $16 billion market cap, a 25% net income yield - at a time when oil prices are moderate, not exuberant. Dividend policy is to pay 40-60% of net income in a dividend, meaning your yield is 10-15% next year - again, on non-exuberant oil prices. Trading at a discount because of fear of government interference, but in 2.5 years of Petro's presidency, and looking forward at the 2025 capital expenditure plan, we see investment continue to be in oil and gas largely. In general, though, I agree - integrated oil companies like Exxon, Chevron and Occidental are fairly priced and not in value territory.
Don't just invest in any random asset. Understand the asset and why it's worth investing in. You'd be surprised how little people know about their portfolio
Hi Sven..great video again 😊 Could you explain why Buffett didn't wait for the ugly and has already bought? Does it have something to do with buying preferred shares instead of the common stock? It is just a debt to be repaid when things go ugly, and when things go well he could reap the rewards? Why don't you buy preferred shares now instead of waiting for the ugly and buying common shares? I hope one day you dig into the significance of coal in China, now that it seems China is into a lot of renewable energy..Is there still some future value for coal in china?
Hi Sven. I am wondering why the energy sector was still doing good during the first months of the great financial crisis that sort of started in 2007 and consolidated in 2008. Thank you!
For a US based oil company, what sort of price do you place on securing energy independence within the country, not having to rely on imports? In the meantime, I'll take HES as a hedge on CVX with 10% discount.
I expected your conclusions. I remember Saudis removing supply in 2023 and it hard barely any effect on the prices. There's just too much oil, not only because China uses less, but also because Russians are trying to sell whatever they have and more importantly, US (and Canada) has had a massive oil boom. US shale producers, especially in permian basin have been ramping up production like crazy. They are high cost producers though, and I expected Saudis to try to put them out of business this year by dumping the price for a year, as they have done many times in the past. But these American producers have seen this movie too many times, so they are all hedged for at least a year out, Saudis would have to keep prices low for multiple years, and they don't seem to be at that point where they want to do that. Risky stuff to be buying now as there's headwinds. Same reason why I sold out of Tobacco stocks. Great cashflow and dividend, but great risk of negative shocks (regulatory in that case).
A while ago before opening my position in OXY I asked everyone's opinion on Reddit: Everyone said no, so I invested. I love going against the tide. It's what pays off.
Why the hell a public company should plan to increase buybacks during good times and reduce it during bad ones while keeping dividend expenses at the same level?!?!?
Great content, as always! But the oil market is global. So from a value investors standpoint, rather look at the European oil companies or Petrobras instead of the expensive US companies? Better values there - or what do you think?
Why are you not talking about energy transfer? Chevron just bought 2.0 million tons from ET for 20 years. ET is under $20 a stock and pay a dividend of $1.32 annually but pay out quarterly
IEA always revises their oil forecasts. Please look into it. IEA is especially bad because they pose as neutral yet they have political left side objective to inflate renewable needs and deflate hydro carbon sources of energy.
and Sven as you said previously in other videos and research platform (I am a member for 2-3yrs) the reality is somewhere in between IEA and oil companies forecasts.
I've heard that some experts are pointing to factors like rising inflation and this possibility of interest rate getting higher as potential triggers for Treasury market instability. It's making me rethink my investment strategy, especially with my stocks portfolio of $400k
The issue is most people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough hence get burnt, no offense. In general, Financial Consultants are ideal reps for investing jobs, and at firsthand encounter, since Jan.2020, amidst covid outbreak, my portfolio has yielded massively in ROI, summing up to 7-figures as of today.

wait, so you have nothing of plastic in your house? even if you go around by bike, the tyres are made of oil... of course I would like to have plastics banned (more toxic than oil which is everyone's focus), In the mean-time I have to look at investments from a risk and reward perspective and hope we all together create a better world, but it is we the people who create the demand,
@@Value-InvestingThere is a largely unknown company on NASDAQ that has found a way to profit from waste plastic, recycling it back to oil base products. Supported by both Shell and Total.
because it is only traded at Saudi stock market. You need to buy it using OTC and pay commission and service fee. It has wide moat (monopoly) but do you trust their financial numbers? I stick to domestic oil company stocks like XOM & CVX
My spouse and I are diversifying our investment portfolio by adding stocks and ETFs. We've allocated $220,000 to begin with, focusing on inflation-indexed bonds and companies with strong cash flows, but I'm also interested in short term earnings if any.
While the current market offers short-term profit potential, it's crucial to note that executing such a strategy requires expertise and skill of a market professional.
True. Having the right financial planner is invaluable. My portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 90% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, though this could take till Q4 2024.

I am disappointed that you treat oil companies like we should just focus on money, revenue and profit. People watch you and we as people can influence the world by what we are investing in. However, promoting these companies will not make the world better. Yes I think it is perfectly normal and right when choosing an investment to look also at other factors like environmental impact for example.
@@Value-Investing yes, on the private side I am also trying to do what I can. But still, it doesn't have to be environmental channel to be able to take a stand also from this point of view. You take a stand from all finantial aspects but not from this one as it wouldn't matter. The companies are there not to generate money only but to create value. And people, some more some less, should care where they direct their own hard earned money.

As a stock market investor i believe investing can lead to financial freedom by growing your wealth over time. Also having an investment advisor is key in this journey, offering expert guidance and tailored strategies to help you navigate the market and achieve your financial goals. Hoping to diversify more in 2025
The truth is, the role of an investment advisor can often be overlooked but should never be underestimated. After facing a significant portfolio loss in 2020 during the COVID pandemic while trying to manage my investments on my own, I decided to reach out to an investment advisor. At that time, I had about $126K left in my portfolio. Now, without having to lift a finger, I'm semi-retired, working only 7.5 hours a week, and I'm just 15% short of my $1 million retirement goal thanks to my subsequent investments.
This is incredible. Could you recommend who you work with? I really could use some help at this moment.
My CFA is Judith B. Richards, a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
Thank you so much for the suggestion! I really needed it. I looked her up on Google and explored her website; she has an impressive background in investments. I've sent her an email, and I hope to hear back from her soon!
Sven, I would be more interested in analysis of oil mid caps like MPC, DVN, TRGP, FANG, WES. They have more upside potential as they're not giants like CVX or OXY. Those are too big to 2x or 3x. That's for Warren to play with. Us, peasants need more risky plays but midcaps have margin of safety. I don't know why Warren bought OXY, where COP is way better value then OXY. Retail investors won't be interested in giants but will be interested in oil small and mid caps. Just my 2 cents If you're interested in covering oil mid caps in the future hence your audience is retail. Thank you for great analysis, Seb.
Me, as a peasant, I prefer to buy BRK B and let the big guys manage the money. Every time I try stuff other than that it is always a sh1tshow.
I've had my eye on DVN for a while in the $40s, I'm glad I held off, beat down hard this year it looks to hit a major support line at 30, think I'll start a position and ride the div.
Warren and Charlie Munger responded at annual meetings on why they chose OXY. Charlie (2022?) talked about OXY having a truly dominant position in the Permian Basin, which insulated their production from overseas or international turmoil; both of them praised the current CEO very very highly; Warren (same meeting) mentioned OXT's investment in other areas and that management wanted to pay down their debt in acquiring Crowne. (I'm guessing that they anticipated shortages over time, rather than such rising production.) BRK paid a premium compared to the current price, got preferred stock, and had an option to buy more. I'd largely agree with Sven that OXY is a "watch" (although I'm currently down in my OXY position--I didn't do the analysis that Sven talks about!).
Because they buy the company not stocks. All the major players like, CVX, OXY, OXM all diverse and invested in renewable energy. Transition from oil to renewable energy is not easy and takes time. . So it makes sense to invest in the current profitable company while waiting for promising future profit then searching for newbies.
Bought PBR in the 8 dollar range. got all back in div since. Also have a small cap Norwegian company, and i like but dont own yet Harbour energy (London)
Sven, your channel is an island of reason and level-headedness in the middle of a sea of FOMO and irrationality. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks for the analysis! I own CVX and OXY. Up over 100% on CVX.
What I understand from this is that it would be the right time to purchase oil, but since this is out of reach for the small-time investor? What are the oil ETFs or stocks that one can purchase in view of 2025?
Bitcoin through 2025, then high-yield ETFs through the bear market 26'-27'-that''s my plan. I'll be buying more TSLA too. Remember to always work with a knowledgeable person in the financial market when starting out to avoid getting burnt. my two cents.
DCA is the golden term. My dollar portfolio is made up of 15% PLTR, 15% TSLA, 25% NVDA, 15% VOO, and 30% in digital assets, credits to my advisor. I've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends this year alone. It's sure getting better with the Trump economy.
Fear of missing out is real! Who is the advisor guiding you, please? I could really use some help at this point.
Personally, I take guidance from a well-spoken advisor, "Caroline Suzan Olson." She's quite known in her field of work with over two decades of experience.
Excellent share! Curiously inputting Caroline Suzan Olson on the web, I spotted her consulting page ranked top and was able to schedule a call session. I've seen commentaries about advisors, but not one looks this phenomenal.
I have CVX on my watchlist. I'm buying when oil is closer to $50/bbl.
wait for ugly! :D
Thanks Sven! Did you upload the gold miner analysis and strategy video?
I'm very excited to see your take.
I’ve saved up $167K in my emergency fund and am ready to start investing. Thinking about value stocks-feels like bargain hunting for my future. Any tips for a newbie looking to invest responsibly?
Stop trying to time the market; it’s far from peaking. Consider getting guidance if you’re unsure to avoid being others’ exit liquidity.
Not bad for a starting point, big spender! But before you toss that $167k at bargain-bin stocks, maybe hit pause. My financial advisor once saved me from a dumpster fire portfolio I was about to build. Seriously, getting professional advice turned my scattered ideas into a solid plan. You should consider it!
You’ve got me thinking now. I have some cash set aside and really want to start investing, but finding a reliable investment advisor feels like searching for a needle in a haystack. How do you know who’s trustworthy and not just selling empty promises?
"There are a handful of CFAs. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with “Victoria Louisa Saylor” for some years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s known in her field-look her up."
Thank you for the lead. I curiously searched Victoria up and her webpage popped up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Cheers!
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month 2024. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. thanks to Charlotte Miller for helping me achieve this
I'm celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today. started this journey with 6k. I have invested on time and also with the right terms now I have time for my family and the life ahead of me
The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $7500. That really helped us a lot to pay up our bills.
She is my family's personal broker and also a personal broker in many families I'm United States, she's a licensed broker and a FINRA AGENT in United states
I'm new at this, please how can I reach her?
I just withdrew my profits a week ago, To be honest it was an amazing feeling when the profits hits my wallet I wish I could reinvest but, too much bills
I’m 46 and have about $225k liquid in savings which I plan to put towards becoming a homeowner, but based on the current high prices on real estate, do you suggest I hold from buying and look at dividend paying stocks instead?
After studying the trajectory of great assets like real estate, dividend paying stocks and gold, my conclusion is to buy and invest in what you can afford today
The role of advisors should not be overlooked . Personally, my job doesn't permit me the time to analyze stocks, thus the use of a reputable advisor. Not to brag but my $1m portfolio has annualized an average 55% ROI since beginning of last year
Please can you leave the info of your investment advisor here? I’m in dire need for one.
I’m cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. You may consider independent financial advisors like ‘’Elizabeth Louise Greak’’. I've worked with her for barely 2 years now and I'd gladly commend her exemplary service on a public post. You can search her name online to book an appointment

Hi Sven
First thank you for the great details on your opinion on oil and gas company. I was lucky to follow your advice on oil company in 2020 end... I want to ask you if you could do a video of CNQ and would love to know your opinion on Canadian oil stock. Appreciate you
Interesting info. Wish you will make a similar video on TTE, SHELL, EQNR??
Thanks Sven!!!
thanks sven for the video, had always been a fan, especially in the current richly valued US environment!
could you share some of your thoughts on MPC?
Considering Brazil is a BRICS participant, I’d be cautious with an overweighted PBR position, personally. The business, itself, has great margin and the dividend is really attractive. Given the uncertainty with war and geopolitical tensions between NATO and non-NATO countries, it’s a risky play long term but is very rewarding if nothing bad happens.
Total Energy my friend ;-)
Knowing that the profits of oil companies are directly dependent upon price per barrel, I think it's best to invest when their's a significant dip in price per barrel and with it share price.
Take a look at BP, Sven. Oil major but very attractively priced compared to CVX and even OXY.
Observing the market’s fluctuations highlights how fast things can shift. In this environment, strategic and informed trading isn’t optional-it’s essential. Caution is just as important as ambition. This commitment to ongoing learning is truly motivating. I’ve focused heavily on active trading, which offers a safer approach to navigating market volatility. Through this strategy, I’ve grown my nest egg from $87k to $246k. I’m especially thankful for Aldona Šabanienė’s tactics and strategies, which have been instrumental in my success.
I have seen a lot of Positive posts about Aldona Šabanienė. Please how do I reach her?
She mostly interacts on Telegrams, using the user-name.
@AldonaSabaniene.
Successful trading necessitates experience, a robust strategy, and thorough preparation. Understanding buy/sell ratios, recognizing market leaders, and implementing diversification are essential for risk mitigation.
Bitcoin's role as a store of value and its potential for future growth make it an attractive investment option. BTC trading can be a thrilling way to participate in this digital asset's journey.
What about PBR, can you update from your latest analysis?
Tambem sugeri isso, ali acima. Abs.
Devon Energy - could you analyse it? It looks dirt cheap to me.
I couldn’t agree more. The sell off has been insane.
Looks to be hitting support at $30, I was looking at it in the $40s and I'm glad I held off, I think I'm going to take a small position as it pays a decent div and see where oil/natural gas prices go.
From what I gather, now might be the perfect time to invest in oil. However, for small-time investors, direct oil purchases aren’t exactly accessible. What are some oil ETFs or stocks worth considering with an eye on 2025?
Outstanding ETF advice! ETFs ought to be purchased and held for a long time. Regularly investing in a single ETF is what I would advise. I've witnessed people purchase several exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that essentially track the same item, which does not diversify a portfolio. Purchase, for instance, an ETF that tracks the S&P 500, into which you would deposit xUSD each month and hold (leave alone) for more than 20 years. There will undoubtedly be market booms and busts during that time, but persevere and keep onto your investments until you're prepared for retirement, estate planning, etc.
Picking stocks that can thrive in inflationary environments is crucial. To shield your portfolio from inflation’s impact, diversifying across asset classes like stocks, bonds, and real estate is a smart strategy. I’ve even seen people make up to $500k in a single month during high inflation-it's definitely possible with the right approach!
One effective strategy is to invest in assets that perform well during inflation. Another key approach is focusing on companies that can pass on price hikes to their customers. It's also crucial to keep your portfolio diversified. It might be a smart move to consult with a financial advisor who can help you create a tailored investment strategy based on your unique goals and risk tolerance.
I used to manage my stock portfolio on my own, but despite not making significant gains, I also avoided losses. Then, out of nowhere, 2008 hit, and I watched 50% of my savings disappear in a matter of months. That was the wake-up call, I allisonCamilleShaw hired a financial advisor. Since then, I’ve been learning a ton about the stock market, and it’s paid off-I’ve made up to $1M in returns!
@HenryAbraham-x6f I first discovered Camille in an interview, reached out, and haven’t looked back since. She’s been guiding me with precise entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. If you're interested in having expert guidance, a quick online search of her name will lead you to more info. I’ve been following her market moves, and I’ve never regretted it!
Thank you for your great analysis again Sven.
Would love your opinion on AMD. It is a growth stock but I think there is also a value play te be done now that the stock is trading so low? Conservative management, almost no debt and pretty undervalued with a bright looking future.
I would argue that "ugly" is what we have right now with Ecopetrol. Down 65% from June 2022, trading at levels not seen since the Covid crash and the 2016 oil market crash. Earning $4 billion USD with a $16 billion market cap, a 25% net income yield - at a time when oil prices are moderate, not exuberant. Dividend policy is to pay 40-60% of net income in a dividend, meaning your yield is 10-15% next year - again, on non-exuberant oil prices. Trading at a discount because of fear of government interference, but in 2.5 years of Petro's presidency, and looking forward at the 2025 capital expenditure plan, we see investment continue to be in oil and gas largely. In general, though, I agree - integrated oil companies like Exxon, Chevron and Occidental are fairly priced and not in value territory.
What's your thinking about XOM?
What about PetroBras?
Yes PBR.A and EC too?
What about D Cup Bras?
why not look at pbr?
Hi Sven where i can find online the chart at 7:39 with details of the insiders?
Thanks
Happy new year!! What do you think symbol; bte small cap oil company in canada ;😊
Hi Sven, at 7:38 where i can find this chart online? Thanks
Don't just invest in any random asset. Understand the asset and why it's worth investing in. You'd be surprised how little people know about their portfolio
Well said
Thanks
Totally agree with you, this year every one is feeling like an investment genius
A while ago you were positive on JDEP, its a lot down now and people will keep drinking coffee. Time for a revisit?
When Education meets blockchain! NorvenAI's the perfect storm.
Devon energy screaming buy
Sven could you look at Gaz ? Especially Canadian? Ideally including possible trahecories after elections? Tx
Very interesting, thanks Sven.
Hi Sven..great video again 😊
Could you explain why Buffett didn't wait for the ugly and has already bought?
Does it have something to do with buying preferred shares instead of the common stock? It is just a debt to be repaid when things go ugly, and when things go well he could reap the rewards?
Why don't you buy preferred shares now instead of waiting for the ugly and buying common shares?
I hope one day you dig into the significance of coal in China, now that it seems China is into a lot of renewable energy..Is there still some future value for coal in china?
Hi Sven. I am wondering why the energy sector was still doing good during the first months of the great financial crisis that sort of started in 2007 and consolidated in 2008. Thank you!
Because there isn't any surplus in 2007 and 2008. Economy is good till bank screws things up.
Hi sven, have you read about the current situation in argentina, regarding to milei and the companies that work in the country like YPF?
For a US based oil company, what sort of price do you place on securing energy independence within the country, not having to rely on imports? In the meantime, I'll take HES as a hedge on CVX with 10% discount.
Yes, can't outperform with oil unless you pay attention to the cycle. But buying randomly in midcycle not too bad in the long run.
I expected your conclusions. I remember Saudis removing supply in 2023 and it hard barely any effect on the prices. There's just too much oil, not only because China uses less, but also because Russians are trying to sell whatever they have and more importantly, US (and Canada) has had a massive oil boom. US shale producers, especially in permian basin have been ramping up production like crazy. They are high cost producers though, and I expected Saudis to try to put them out of business this year by dumping the price for a year, as they have done many times in the past. But these American producers have seen this movie too many times, so they are all hedged for at least a year out, Saudis would have to keep prices low for multiple years, and they don't seem to be at that point where they want to do that. Risky stuff to be buying now as there's headwinds. Same reason why I sold out of Tobacco stocks. Great cashflow and dividend, but great risk of negative shocks (regulatory in that case).
Hello Sven. Can you analyze the European Banks? they look cheap! Is it a value trap?
A while ago before opening my position in OXY I asked everyone's opinion on Reddit:
Everyone said no, so I invested.
I love going against the tide. It's what pays off.
contrarian investing =)
@@pongop Yeah, if the average investor would go broke for stock picking, wouldn't he make above average profits if he completely inverted himself? :P
@@viriato.t8 good question! 😅
What do you think of $OIH?
FMC?
Oil and petrochemicals is far more then a fuel. It’s in all aspects of life worldwide. Good to see it go down but will take decades.
Why the hell a public company should plan to increase buybacks during good times and reduce it during bad ones while keeping dividend expenses at the same level?!?!?
Devon Energy
Surge Energy-9% dividend yield, debt < 0.9 EBITDA, great assets and reserves
Equinor is cheaper and has much better dividend plus big buy back.😊😊
Great content, as always! But the oil market is global. So from a value investors standpoint, rather look at the European oil companies or Petrobras instead of the expensive US companies? Better values there - or what do you think?
Do China's numbers include oil/gas from Russia by pipelines?
Why are you not talking about energy transfer? Chevron just bought 2.0 million tons from ET for 20 years. ET is under $20 a stock and pay a dividend of $1.32 annually but pay out quarterly
IEA always revises their oil forecasts. Please look into it. IEA is especially bad because they pose as neutral yet they have political left side objective to inflate renewable needs and deflate hydro carbon sources of energy.
and Sven as you said previously in other videos and research platform (I am a member for 2-3yrs) the reality is somewhere in between IEA and oil companies forecasts.
Warren Buffet follows your channel
I've heard that some experts are pointing to factors like rising inflation and this possibility of interest rate getting higher as potential triggers for Treasury market instability. It's making me rethink my investment strategy, especially with my stocks portfolio of $400k
The issue is most people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough hence get burnt, no offense. In general, Financial Consultants are ideal reps for investing jobs, and at firsthand encounter, since Jan.2020, amidst covid outbreak, my portfolio has yielded massively in ROI, summing up to 7-figures as of today.
She goes by ‘Stacy Lynn Staples ” I suggest you look her up. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
I ❤ oil 😂 black gold
Sven dont you have ethical concerns considering the oil bussines?
Lol, the world needs oil. Without it we are all screwed.
if his wife gives ok, he will invest 💲💲
wait, so you have nothing of plastic in your house? even if you go around by bike, the tyres are made of oil...
of course I would like to have plastics banned (more toxic than oil which is everyone's focus), In the mean-time I have to look at investments from a risk and reward perspective and hope we all together create a better world, but it is we the people who create the demand,
@@Value-InvestingThere is a largely unknown company on NASDAQ that has found a way to profit from waste plastic, recycling it back to oil base products. Supported by both Shell and Total.

If buy oil company why not buy aramco 2222 if a price war only aramco can survival
because it is only traded at Saudi stock market. You need to buy it using OTC and pay commission and service fee. It has wide moat (monopoly) but do you trust their financial numbers? I stick to domestic oil company stocks like XOM & CVX
Hi Sven, could you please do Petrobras, BP and Shell?

@11:00 Here's to September 2020.
My spouse and I are diversifying our investment portfolio by adding stocks and ETFs. We've allocated $220,000 to begin with, focusing on inflation-indexed bonds and companies with strong cash flows, but I'm also interested in short term earnings if any.
While the current market offers short-term profit potential, it's crucial to note that executing such a strategy requires expertise and skill of a market professional.
True. Having the right financial planner is invaluable. My portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 90% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, though this could take till Q4 2024.
Glad to have stumbled on this, Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service ?
Her name is. 'Stacy Lynn Staples’. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

thats incredible risky with the smart guys back in power. The US and Argentina will drill like crazy and the end of some sanctions will be part of an ukraine deal.

please educate me, l've come across this name before, Now i'm interested
How can I communicate with her?
I am disappointed that you treat oil companies like we should just focus on money, revenue and profit. People watch you and we as people can influence the world by what we are investing in. However, promoting these companies will not make the world better. Yes I think it is perfectly normal and right when choosing an investment to look also at other factors like environmental impact for example.
of course, but this is an investing channel, I am sure there are environmental channels for that, and then on the private side, we can do our best
@@Value-Investing yes, on the private side I am also trying to do what I can. But still, it doesn't have to be environmental channel to be able to take a stand also from this point of view. You take a stand from all finantial aspects but not from this one as it wouldn't matter. The companies are there not to generate money only but to create value. And people, some more some less, should care where they direct their own hard earned money.
