If You Think Oil Has Peaked, Buy Airline Stocks or FedEx

DUG is interesting for a short term play but the 0.95% expense ratio bothers me.

Refiners are interesting but I'd avoid any in the gulf since a hurricane could take out oil rigs and the refinery for double trouble... higher prices for oil and a shut down refinery.

If You Think Oil Has Peaked, Buy Airline Stocks or FedEx

Agree. I said it in the article too. That is why I offered the alternative that has worked well for me in my newsletter and personal investing, FDX.

"<I>It has been much easier to make profits transporting packages than people who may put bombs in their shoes or box cutters in their carry-on luggage. FedEx should also benefit from high oil prices in the long term as more people will shop on the internet to save driving. Even if oil prices remain high, FedEx will eventually raise prices and return to growing profits. Airlines wish they could remember what it is like to be profitable.</i>"

Are Solar Tech Stocks Being Unfairly Trampled in the Rush?

I don't own the solar companies and don't recommend any... unless you count AMAT that I've made a small fortune on over the years in my newsletter and personal accounts.

My goal for writing the article was to track what Hilary Kramer was saying about them on NBR for some of my readers on my facebook forum who like the solars despite the huge valuations they carry.

If I own a stock, then I will put that in a disclaimer at the end of the article.
