The VanEck Vectors Steel ETF (NYSE: SLX) was one of the premier “Trump trades,” soaring last year as Donald Trump's protectionist campaign trail rhetoric sparked once moribund steel stocks.

Year-to-date, SLX is up 5.6 percent, but there are concerns Trump trades are waning. Regarding SLX, part of the issue is the expected delay in Trump's widely anticipated infrastructure initiative. On the campaign trail, Trump promised to spend $1 trillion to shore up America's roads, bridges and railways, but that plan has been pushed off to 2018.

Top Clean Energy Stocks To Own Right Now: EOG Resources, Inc.(EOG)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Given that data, it would behoove investors to focus more on finding companies poised to grow their dividends at a healthy pace, since that would theoretically provide them with more fuel to outperform. That’s why investors won’t want to miss what oil driller EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) has on tap. While its paltry 0.6%-yielding dividend might not appeal to income investors, its dividend growth prospects have the potential to continue fueling market-smashing returns.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) delivered a solid finish to 2018 as both oil and natural gas liquids (NGL) production exceeded the midpoint of its guidance range. That strong output enabled the company to generate robust cash flow during the quarter, helping it produce record free cash flow for the year. The oil company expects more of the same in 2019 as it remains well positioned to continue expanding output at a healthy rate while generating significant free cash flow.

    Today, however, many drillers are setting a high bar for new wells. EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) has been one of the leaders in disrupting the former way of thinking by establishing a high return hurdle rate for new wells of 30% after-tax at $40 oil. Others followed with similar return-focused approaches, including Encana (NYSE:ECA), which needs locations to achieve a 35% after-tax return at $50 oil to meet its premium hurdle rate.

Top Clean Energy Stocks To Own Right Now: Tallgrass Energy Partners, LP(TEP)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Earlier this year, Tallgrass Energy GP (NYSE:TEGP) agreed to acquire its master limited partnership, Tallgrass Energy Partners (NYSE:TEP) in an all-stock deal. This transaction is one of many similar ones in the sector over the past few years as energy infrastructure companies have had to grapple with the fallout of the oil market downturn. Like the deals before it, and those announced afterward, the transaction will create one stronger entity that’s well positioned to grow in the coming years while still offering income-seeking investors a generous income stream. That income with upside makes Tallgrass a stock that investors will want to keep on their radar, especially considering the strength of its financial profile.

As strong as the economy is in many ways after our nine-year-long expansion, there are still plenty of hazards out there that can hammer good companies, and in thisMarketFoolery podcast, host Chris Hill and Motley Fool senior analyst Jeff Fischer discuss a number of them. First off, they tackle the troubles faced by iconic U.S. motorcycle manufacturer Harley-Davidson (NYSE:HOG): trade wars and the tweeted ire of President Trump.

Next, they weigh in on the major moves General Electric (NYSE:GE) is making to get out from under its long-standing problem of having grown too unwieldy to be well-managed. And finally, they look to Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX), which is closing underperforming stores and adjusting its growth plan to better match demand — choices that, while natural, have somewhat spooked the market.

A full transcript follows the video.
