Energy Sector ETF Allows Investors to Tilt Their Portfolios for Capital Growth
Australian-owned sector ETF provider, Australian Index Investments (Aii), believes that with the growth in energy costs worldwide that it might be time for investors to tilt their portfolios towards this growth sector. With a basic underlying energy shortage, rising global demand and revolution in the Middle East, triple digit oil prices are very possible.
“With oil prices on the rise maybe now is the time to consider a higher energy stock exposure for portfolios. An easy and cheap way to implement an energy strategy is via the Aii Energy ETF, which is listed on the ASX.
“The Aii Energy ETF contains oil majors such as Woodside Petroleum, Origin Energy, Santos and Oil Search. The basket of energy stocks in the sector is currently 22. Interestingly, the sector ETF does not just include oil producers but also offers exposure to explorers and service companies supplying the energy industry,” said Annmaree Varelas, CEO, Australian Index Investments.
