Energy stocks have been HATED for years.
Environmentalists and “ESG capitalists” say…
“They’re ruining the environment. They pollute the water. They cause global warming. They’re horrible companies.”
The negativity means energy stocks trade far below their true value. And as a result – they can offer incredibly high dividends of up to 26%.
Yes, you can thank the woke ESG investors for depressing the prices of these stocks. And you can thank them for the huge dividends too.
Heck – Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM) is the most blue-chip energy stock. It offers a 3.5% dividend that’s more than double the yield on the S&P 500.
If you’re willing to look beyond blue chip stocks like Exxon, BP (NYSE: BP) and Chevron (NYSE: CVX)…
You can find some truly remarkable high yielding energy stocks.
Here’s a list of the top 10 highest yielding energy stocks – with market values above $100 million.
- Equinor (NYSE: EQNR): 12.8%
- Dorchester Minerals (NYSE: DMLP): 12.9%
- VOC Energy Trust (NYSE: VOC): 14.1%
- Alliance Resource Partners (NYSE: ARLP): 14.7%
- Ecopetrol (NYSE: EC): 14.7%
- BP Prudhoe Bay Trust (NYSE: BPT): 16.1%
- MV Oil Trust (NYSE: MVO): 17.9%
- North European Royalty (NYSE: NRT): 21.3%
- Petrobras (NYSE: PBR): 21.6%
- San Juan Basin Royalty (NYSE: SJT): 25.9%
These dividends are huge – compared with most stocks.
Yet it’s possible to collect 28%… 41%… and even 45% dividends in just 1-day.
Most folks don’t like investing in the energy patch.
Yet the LOVE driving their car… running the AC when it’s 90 degrees outside… having a refrigerator… flying to go on vacation… etc.
Like it or not – all that stuff uses energy including “dirty” oil and natural gas.
Frankly, I’m bullish on energy because the global population continues to grow. And billions of people living in the developing world want to live like you and me.
They want to own a car. They want to have AC. They want to travel. They want to eat chicken and steak – instead of rice and beans. They want a better standard of living. And honestly, they should have a shot at upgrading their lives too.
That means demand for energy – including oil and gas – will continue to grow.
That’s bullish for energy stocks.
I’ll happily buy dirty old energy stocks at cheap prices. And I’ll happily cash their outsized dividend checks while ESG investors turn their backs on the entire sector.
