This raises an important question: are these valuations justified for a sector that has not grown its overall earnings per share over the last 10 years?

The Hidden Biases holding your portfolio back

Investing is often seen as a game of numbers, charts, and cold, hard logic. Except, in practice, that’s not how it works for most investors. More often than not, investment decisions are driven by emotions, biases, and mental shortcuts.

Can the Energy Sector Bounce Back?

Here’s a shocking stat for energy investors: the energy sector comprises only 3% of the S&P 500’s value, down from 30% in 1980. That’s serious underperformance. It’s understandable why only the most ardent of energy bulls currently own what remains of the energy sector’s once great market cap.

Will it rise like a phoenix from the ashes at the very moment it’s been written off and ignored by most investors?
