The markets respond to two emotions: fear and greed. It just depends on which one is in control…
For the past few years, greed has led stocks on a powerful move higher. Folks have been more worried about missing out than making bad decisions. When everyone rushes to buy, prices rise.
Then, like clockwork, greed turns to fear. “Easy money” investments start to look shaky. And the herd changes direction… with investors running for cover.
Today’s economic landscape is fraught with geopolitical turmoil and signs of instability. Stocks haven’t crashed, but we’re quickly approaching a correction. And the general sentiment is no longer greed… It’s fear.
You can still find places to make money, though. In fact, one sector just finished one of its best three-month stretches ever. And according to history, we can expect those gains to continue…
Soaring Oil Prices Are Boosting This Energy Rally
Unlike some other sectors, energy stocks aren’t as tied to the direction of the overall market. They rise and fall with oil and gas prices.
The war in the Middle East has sent oil soaring. That’s hurting most sectors… But it’s a tailwind for energy stocks. And it’s accelerating a trend that was already underway.
You see, energy stocks have soared an incredible 27% over the past three months. Take a look…
Energy stocks went nowhere for most of 2025. But they began rising in mid-December. And the rally hasn’t slowed down since.
Again, the sector is up 27% in that period… several years‘ worth of returns in just a few months. But don’t worry – you haven’t missed the entire rally. History shows the upside isn’t over yet.
We’ve seen nine similar three-month energy-stock rallies since the data begins in 1989. And after these setups, energy stocks tend to keep moving higher. Take a look…
Energy stocks usually don’t get much attention compared with other sectors. But they have a long history of generating strong returns.
The typical one-year gain is 6.7%. And you can do much better when prices are booming…
Similar setups led to gains of 4.4% in six months and 16.2% over a year. That’s massive outperformance.
Of course, most folks will look at the recent rally and assume they missed the run-up. That’s a mistake. And while the overall market looks shaky… this opportunity could be more valuable to investors than ever.
We know how powerful trends can be. When prices are rising, they tend to keep rising. And for energy stocks, a massive three-month rally means more gains are likely.
One easy way to take advantage of this is through the State Street Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLE). The fund gives exposure to entire energy sector. It has been rising fast. And given the current setup, we can expect those gains to continue.
Good investing,

President Trump just went on record: the AI data center buildout sweeping America is unstoppable. Communities across the country have been pushing back - over rising electricity bills, strained water supplies, and projects landing next door to homes and schools. But the AI buildout isn't slowing down. In fact, Elon Musk's master plan - hidden inside SpaceX - avoids every obstacle. Analyst Rob Spivey says folks who understand what Elon is building - and why - could make a lot of money in the right stocks. Get the name and ticker of the No. 1 stock at the center of it FREE (not Tesla or SpaceX).
