Episode notes

The recent events in the Middle East have sparked discussions about the appropriate weight of energy stocks in a diversified portfolio. Despite the telegraphed nature of the strikes, it serves as a reminder for investors to evaluate their exposure to US oil producers and global energy stocks. Notably, most broad indices worldwide have low energy weightings, ranging from 4% in the S&P to 8% in the Russell. This is mainly due to the dominance of the tech sector, which has pushed energy stocks lower in these indices over time.

On this TCAF Tuesday, Josh Brown is joined by Nick Colas and Jessica Rabe, co-founders of DataTrek Research, to discuss the energy market, inflation, and how to prepare for the next recession.
