10 Stocks to Play a Resurgent Energy Sector, From Our Roundtable Experts
Our energy roundtable predicts higher crude prices as global demand grows. What’s ahead for shale, energy transition.
By Avi Salzman

comment from Christyan Malek, global head of energy strategy and head of Europe, the Middle East, and Africa oil and gas equity research at J.P. Morgan
---------------------------------------
<<<<< I meet with a lot of the CIOs [chief investment officers] in Europe. I asked one in Sweden, “At what point would you get involved in energy?” And he said, “Once it gets to 7% to 8% of the index, we have a problem. Then you are under-performing your own [stock market] benchmarks.”
There’s a pain threshold. It has been OK not to be in energy, because it has underperformed, so there has been no FOMO [fear of missing out]. But as energy outperforms, then it starts to become a larger part of the index and you can’t ignore it. >>>>>
-------------------------------------
a chart (which I cannot copy here), had this :
<<<<< Energy stocks account today for less than 5% of the benchmark U.S. stock index [ the S&P 500 index ], down from 16% in 2008. >>>>>
