Finding Worthwhile Energy Stocks Amid Rising Risk

In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Josh Young to the show. Josh is the founder of Bison Interests and writer of the Bison Insights newsletter on Substack. Josh specializes in focusing on the best opportunities in the oil and gas industry.   Josh kicks things off by presenting his evaluations on the current landscape for energy stocks. He sees increasing geopolitical risk in the larger oil and gas companies. He also says that many of them have lost a lot of value as well. He then discusses the two biggest global risks in the oil and gas sector that he cautions investors to stay away from. Despite these challenges, Josh says that smaller oil and gas producers are where he sees the best opportunity in the sector.

Josh follows that up by addressing how technological advancements have contributed to the decrease in the oil-rig count. However, despite this appearing to be a negative scenario, Josh says that tailwinds are emerging from production going down. And he believes that oil production is going to be a critical topic during the 2028 presidential election, if not sooner. (17:22)   Finally, Josh goes into depth on a company that he's fond of. He also gives his thoughts on the future of oil and where he thinks certain subsectors could grow, especially with regard to demand. But he stresses that he's not a universal commodity bull and says there's one commodity that he's less optimistic about. However, investors should still be careful overall about where they put their money. (42:17)
