In addition to the oil and gas ETF that has been in my portfolio for a long time, I am now investing in $CVX (+1.04%) . Would you do the same? Or do you think other oil companies are better?

Impact of Iran Closing the Strait of Hormuz on Global Markets
Impact of Iran Closing the Strait of Hormuz on Global Markets
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most important oil transit routes in the world. About 20% of global oil supply passes through this narrow waterway. If Iran decides to close it, oil prices could skyrocket above $200 per barrel, according to Macquarie Commodities Strategy Head Marcus Garvey. While this is not the expected scenario, even a temporary disruption could cause major economic consequences.
Who Benefits?
Companies involved in oil production and energy supply would likely see higher profits due to rising oil prices. Some stocks that could benefit include:
- Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) in the U.S.
- Shell (SHEL) and BP (BP) in Europe
- Oilfield service providers like Schlumberger (SLB) and Halliburton (HAL), which support drilling operations
Who Suffers?
Industries that rely on oil for production and transportation would struggle with higher costs. Some of the most affected sectors include:
- Airlines (Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, Lufthansa)
- Automakers (Volkswagen, Ford, Tesla)
- Shipping companies (Maersk, FedEx, UPS)
- Chemical producers (BASF, Dow Inc.)
Likelihood of Closure
Iran has threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz multiple times, but it has never fully blocked it. The last major disruption occurred during the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), when both sides attacked oil tankers. More recently, in 2019, ships were attacked near the strait, raising concerns about security. Experts believe a full closure is unlikely, as it would also hurt Iran’s economy and provoke military retaliation.
Conclusion
If Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices would surge, benefiting energy companies while hurting industries dependent on oil. However, history suggests that a full blockade is not likely, though tensions in the region remain high. Investors should watch oil markets closely as geopolitical risks evolve.

What was Warren Buffet thinking with his oil investments and is he wrong in the long term? (Sector analysis energy and utilities)
When $BRK.B (-0.77%) started during the Corona crisis $OXY (+0.54%) and $CVX (+1.04%) many people didn't understand this. Tech was more popular than ever at the time and oil was considered dead. A short time later, it became clear that oil was here to stay. As discussed in the last market review, the energy sector was one of the best investments during the pandemic.
However, this was probably a special boom for fossil fuels that was to remain a one-off. Since the price explosion, the energy sector has been in a very weak trend and is the worst performing sector directly after healthcare (which could therefore also be very interesting at the moment).
In particular, the dynamic has shifted from oil & gas to electricity - which, however, is not counted as part of the energy sector in the classic GICS but as part of the utilities sector. The reason for this is, of course, the expected triumph of artificial intelligence and the associated hunger for energy in data centers. The best-known company in the sector is probably $NEE (-0.2%)
In any case, Buffet's investments in fossil fuels have not been particularly worthwhile to date, as he may have made a favorable initial entry, but then often bought at unfavorable prices. At the current point in time, the investment case has not yet worked out. It is therefore an interesting question whether Buffet is speculating on something that has not yet been understood by the market or whether it is one of the rare situations in which the good Warren has miscalculated something (think of the disaster around $KHC (-0.38%) ). At any rate, it is difficult to understand what Buffet was thinking and whether his theory is still intact.
Incidentally, I myself am not invested in either utilities or energy, which I think is a great pity. However, I have not been able to identify any company that is currently really convincing in terms of its figures and can be described as a quality company.
What about you? Do you have any oil, gas or electricity stocks in your portfolio?
(And the < 5% exposure in the World ETF does not count)

The link is about derivatives on the oil price. But I see another good trading opportunity. Because contrary to the assumption in the article that they want to hit countries like Kazakhstan and Iran, I see a completely different target. That is the US fracking industry. The USA is now the largest single producer in the world due to the immense investments in this sector. 13.5 million barrels per day. This is a thorn in OPEC's side, as it jeopardizes OPEC's supremacy. So they are trying to use the oversupply to push prices so low that the business is not worthwhile for the fracking companies. Donald Trump is satisfied with expensive Arab investments in other areas and has long since deviated from his drill baby drill actions. He knows full well that US citizens are more enthusiastic about falling energy prices, regardless of what causes them. It could therefore be interesting to bet on falling prices for US fracking companies.
Yesterday, OPEC announced a further increase in production quotas of over 400,000 barrels/day from July 1.

WE WANT DIVIDENDS
Hello Getquin Community,
I would be interested to know: What are your top dividend stocks or which ones do you currently have on your watchlist that you would like to add to your portfolio?
My strongest stocks at the moment are definitely $HSBA (-0.58%) and $BATS (+0.12%) Both deliver solid dividend yields and are real classics in the dividend strategy sector.
I'll add a few more to the list - I'm looking forward to your additions:
$SREN (+0%)
$ZURN (-0.1%)
$MO (+0%)
$CVX (+1.04%)
$MAIN (-0.04%)
$O (-0.38%)

Good question! 😁 I'll give it a try...
I think you have to take into account how much risk you are willing to take and what proportion of the overall portfolio the position should make up.
Stocks with risk and div yield >15%
(cyclical, exotic - as an admixture):
$PETR4 - Petrobras, Oil+Gas, Brazil
$TRMD A - Torm, tanker fleet shipping company
$HAFNI - Hafnia, tanker fleet shipping company
(There are more shipping companies...)
Stocks with 6-8% dividend yield and manageable risk. (Mainly banks, consumer goods, pharmaceuticals)
$BATS - BritishAm.T. Cigarettes (UK)
$HSBA - HSBC, int. bank (UK)
$ING - ING, Bank (NL)
$PFE - Pfizer, Pharmaceuticals (USA)
$KHC - KraftHines, Food (USA)
$RIO - RioTinto, mining+raw materials (UK)
$VALE3 - Vale, commodities
Somewhat lower in yield are the ImmoREITS from the USA
$O - Reality Income
$WPC - WP Carey
... and of course some others from the REIT sector
I also find $JEGP interesting as an ETF.
