The rationale for investing in natural resource equities and commodities has stayed consistent: to enhance portfolio diversification, access global growth and hedge against inflation. The sharp economic recovery from the depths of the pandemic coupled with continually evolving expectations in terms of future impact have recast the spotlight on natural resources and commodities.

Natural Resources and Commodities: Invest Resourcefully

As has been widely documented, energy is the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 this year, a second consecutive year in which that's been the case. Energy infrastructure assets, including master limited partnerships (MLPs) and other midstream fare, are getting in on the act.

Energy Infrastructure Assets Can Hold Up Against Recession

Oil prices are well off their mid-year highs, and the S&P 500 Energy Index is sharply trailing the S&P 500 over the past month. Still, energy is the best-performing sector in the U.S. this year, and by a wide margin at that.

Reasons Remain to Own Energy ETFs, EINC

Energy is the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 this year and the only one that's higher on a year-to-date basis, but recession jitters could prompt a material pullback in oil prices, hampering energy equities and exchange traded funds in the process.

How to Find Big Income in the Energy Patch

Amid fears that a recession is either already here or on the way, energy stocks and exchange traded funds are retreating. On the other hand, some market observers believe there's plenty of room for energy commodities prices to rebound and trade higher, potentially signaling a credible dip to buy is available with the VanEck Vectors [.

Reasons For Midstream Investors To Be Calm Amid Today's Stock Market Storm

The energy sector is the best-performing group in the S&P 500 this year, and although the group is increasingly home to stronger balance sheets and more prudent capital allocations, it's still a credible income destination. At least, it is if investors employ the right strategies.

Getting Paid to Embrace the High-Flying Energy Sector

With oil prices soaring and interest rates low, income-starved investors have a friend in the form of the midstream energy segment and the related exchange traded funds. Take the case of the VanEck Vectors Energy Income ETF (EINC).

Midstream Energy Could Lure Private Equity Suitors

With just a few days left in 2021, it looks like the energy sector will complete one of the more memorable redemption acts on record and finish this year as the best-performing group in the S&P 500. Of course, past performance isn't a promise of future returns, but some market observers believe that energy stocks [.

Energy Sequel Can Materialize in 2022

By Coulter Regal, CFA Associate Product Manager Income investors have become accustomed to expanding their search for yield beyond traditional fixed income securities for more than a decade. Many have looked to alternative strategies, such as preferred securities or business development companies, to inject much desired income and diversification into their portfolios.

Energy Income in a Yield-Starved World

Rebounding oil prices are stoking the flames of an energy sector rally this year. Obviously, equity upside is paramount, but investors shouldn't sleep on the income opportunities available in the midstream energy segment.

Evaluate EINC for Energy Income

The October reading of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) published on Wednesday presented investors with another month of inflation data that's well outside the Federal Reserve's targeted range and one more sign that inflation is proving more persistent than transitory. The longer inflation lasts, the more it will affect inflation-sensitive assets.

Inflation Situation Looks Ugly, but Energy Income Is Attractive

Energy is the best-performing sector in the S&P 500 this year, and that's a trend permeating an assortment of industries, including the midstream. Just look at the VanEck Vectors Energy Income ETF (EINC), which is higher by more than 43% year-to-date and residing near all-time highs.

With oil prices vaulting to highs that seemed almost unimaginable just a year ago, it can seem like the obvious play in energy investment would be to allocate funds there. Ongoing energy shortages in Europe and the inability of renewable energy to come online fast enough to meet energy demand all point to continued high [.

Why Midstream is a Winning Choice For Energy Investors

Broadly speaking, the energy sector is impressing this year, but that doesn't mean opportunity is now limited in the group. The midstream space beckons for intrepid investors as some members of this segment, including holdings within the Alerian Energy Infrastructure ETF (ENFR), currently look attractive.
