Advisors’ Opinion:

    Energy is a broad industry that covers a lot of ground, from oil drilling to electricity. If you are looking for an energy investment, you have a huge number of options. The question is how you want to play it. Today, high-yielding ExxonMobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and Dominion Energy, Inc. (NYSE:D) appear to be good income opportunities, but they are taking vastly different approaches to the changes taking shape in the energy industry. Here’s what you need to know to decide if one, both, or neither of these energy stocks is worth adding to your portfolio.

    Many major utilities are now ramping up investments in cost-saving, margin-boosting energy efficiency programs. In fact, there’s a strong correlation between the most ambitious renewable energy investment strategies and energy efficiency programs. Some utilities have a lot of catching up to do.  

    Xcel Energy (NASDAQ:XEL) has saved 13,000 GWh of electricity consumption across its network over the years, including 9,000 GWh since 2005. The company has an ambitious plan to retire coal-fired power plants and build new wind and solar power capacity, which, when coupled with energy efficiency, could allow it to generate 45% of its electricity from renewables in 2027. Additionally, fuel-related expenses would drop from 47% of capital investments in 2010 to just 28% in 2027. That would free up more cash flow for dividends or growth projects — or both. PG&E (NYSE:PCG) recently filed a plan to retire an aging fossil fuel power plant with distributed solar and energy efficiency programs, as discussed on a recent quarterly conference call with investors. The utility also offers some of the most ambitious customer rebates in the country, with up to $5,500 per household. Southern Company (NYSE:SO) has saved 2,700 GWh of electricity consumption across its network since 2000. By 2020, it will have invested $1 billion total in energy efficiency programs, although that lags well behind more ambitious peers. Dominion Energy (NYSE:D) was ranked second to last among all utilities in the country in energy efficiency by the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy. That leaves plenty of room for improvement. A recent report suggests it’s possible to reduce new home energy consumption in Virginia (the company’s home state) by 60%, saving the utility billions in capital investments in the next decade by avoiding the need to build new facilities. Those efforts could also save customers $1.7 billion, but the utility’s most recent plan does not prioritize energy efficien

The upcoming Ryzen launch has propelled Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. stock near to its 10-year high. Can AMD stock gain further?
Flickr

Shares of Sunnyvale, California-based Advanced Micro Devices Inc (NASDAQ:AMD) are showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon, gaining more than 27% YTD after rising almost 296% in 2016. Of late AMD stock has been up due to the positive initial response to Ryzen CPUs and its official release date getting closer. We already discussed how AMD stock could head higher going into AMD Vega GPU preview. With AMD stock approaching its 10 year high, investors could feel the stock has run up too high. Investors would be wary of buying AMD stock at these levels with technicals also suggesting the stock has entered the overbought zone. However, AMD stock may still defy all odds and could be heading for much higher grounds. AMD stock, which was primarily driven by investor speculation in the past could see the speculations actually turning into reality in the coming days. The question now is, should you buy AMD stock near its 10-year high price?

The stock of the owner of brands including iconic lingerie brand Victoria’s Secret and beauty retailer Bath & Body Works is down 43% for the year as of this writing, approaching 52-week lows after a weak first-quarter earnings report.

    Wall Street had another good session on Thursday, with further gains for major markets as benchmarks like the Russell 2000 index of small-cap stocks flirted with record highs. A favorable reading from the consumer price index showed only modest growth in prices, and the idea that inflation remains in check led market participants to believe that the Federal Reserve won’t have to speed up its efforts to return short-term interest rates to more normal levels. Yet even with the overall market picking up ground, some companies had bad news that weighed on their share prices. Booking Holdings (NASDAQ:BKNG), Exelixis (NASDAQ:EXEL), and L Brands (NYSE:LB) were among the worst performers on the day. Here’s why they did so poorly.

    Larger utility Dominion Energy (NYSE:D) has leaped to the rescue, agreeing to acquire SCANA. However, it will walk away from the deal if its terms aren’t agreed to by regulators, specifically regarding the nuclear power mess. Moreover, because of the circumstances around the nuclear issue, it isn’t clear that regulators will approve the deal. At this point, there are two potential outcomes for dividend investors drawn to SCANA’s hefty 7% yield. The Dominion deal gets approved and the all-stock transaction reduces dividends received by SCANA shareholders by around 9%. Or, the deal fails and SCANA’s weak financial state leads to a dividend cut or, worse, a complete suspension.

Top 10 Clean Energy Stocks To Watch For 2019

Leave a reply

There’s reason to think that President Trump might target uranium imports for tariffs after imposing them on solar equipment back in January and then another announcing another round late last week on steel and aluminum (China has already responded by announcing planned tariffs on imports of U.S. pork, recycled aluminum, steel pipes, fruit and wine). At first glance, you might think that would cause concern for investors in small cap mining stocks like Azincourt Energy Corp (TSX-V: AAZ; OTCMKTS: AZURF) which is focused on developing critical clean energy elements (namely lithium, uranium and cobalt plus other critical clean energy elements) mostly in Canada.

However, Trump did quickly declared a temporary exemption from his tariffs for the European Union and other nations like Australia and South Korea as the tariffs are clearly meant to hit China. The NAFTA countries of Canada and Mexico were also exempted; but those exemptions “are not open-ended” and will depend on whether changes are made to NAFTA that will satisfy Trump.

    Of course, the current pipeline includes projects in various stages of planning, and some may never become a commercial reality. For instance, the tally includes a potential project in Virginia owned by Dominion Energy (NYSE:D). The project is about to install its first 12 megawatts’ worth of turbines, which will be used to collect data that will influence a final investment decision on a future buildout to 2,000 megawatts. While the latter number is what’s included in the DOE pipeline, it still goes to show that companies are taking the opportunity very seriously after years of avoiding the energy source.

    Navigating the sweeping changes underway in American energy has not been easy for Dominion Energy (NYSE:D). The company’s geographic locations just below the Mason-Dixon Line and in coal-friendly states out West mean it has historically relied on coal-fired power plants for power generation, while also slightly handicapping operations with relatively poor wind and solar potential. That has made it more difficult to retire aging assets, power up cleaner assets, and invest in energy efficiency projects (where it ranks pretty poorly).

“Formula for success: rise early, work hard, strike oil” – J. Paul Getty

I must confess to feeling kind of lonely at times this year being one of a handful of observers of the casino space, (and at times, the only one,) standing firm on my undiminished faith that Las Vegas Sands (NYSE:LVS) valuations were dead wrong. Now, after the Macau Parisian has opened and LVS Q3 results knocked it out of the park I suddenly have lots of company. I’m bemused to see the bandwagon suddenly getting rather crowded.

There’s no room for gloat or vapid vainglory in my gene pool. I’ve had my share of missed calls – but the casino space is my home stamping grounds. But it is fair to point out that many prophets of doom since the 2015 junket crackdown ran for the exits or pooh-poohed my consistent call on SA that LVS was still worth $70 in my view. Others agreed with me but were less bullish on price. We’re not there yet to be certain. But as I have written before, if the trade holds steady at $60 or above, I feel the ramp-up to $70 or possibly higher by Q2 2017 will move into the speed lane.

  • [By Michael Flannelly]

    Early on Monday, analysts at Deutsche Bank lowered their price target on Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) to reflect a lower-than-expected valuation of an asset that the oil and gas exploration company is trying to sell.

    Though the analysts lowered OXY’s price target from $114 to $109, they still maintain a “Buy” rating on the stock. The new price target suggests a 22% upside to the stock’s Friday closing price of $89.49.

    Deutsche Bank analyst Paul Sankey said, “Bloomberg Finance LP reports that Oxy is seeking sale of 40% of Mideast operations for around $8bn, which would imply $20bn total value for the unit. However reportedly some suitors are valuing the asset at around $15bn. This is a relatively negative valuation against our previous view that Oxy would be seeking $25+bn for its MENA business. We are cutting our price target to $109/share to reflect this lower implied valuation.”

    Occidental Petroleum shares were up 96 cents, or 1.07%, during pre-market trading on Monday. The stock is up 16.81% year-to-date.
