Yep. I do. Gold & Silver, too. My Master Plan is finally coming to fruition, thanks to a Democrat-led CLUELESS Congress.
Keep up the good work, Guys & Gals. :)
“I’m an oilman, ladies and gentlemen.”
Most of my Eggs are in that basket right now
But I will be “out” rapidly if
the Dems win the White House / House / Senate
The idiots will kill the goose that laid the golden egg
The idiots will kill the goose that laid the golden egg
That is the one point I have difficulty believing, and the one point that points out the utter pointless deception by the democrats in congress.
They cannot possibly believe the bilge they are attempting to foist on the American people, and if they fail to kill the goose that laid the golden egg, it will be proof positive.
Do you really believe they will kill their own IRA, 401K, investment? I don’t think they can do it. If they succeed, I will have a new respect for their utter stupidity.

Thanks for posting this. Just the info I need to counter my friend’s husband who is always complaining about “Big Oil”...LOL
Yes I have owned Exxon stock for over 25 years. Good dividend.
I also have had GE stock for over 43 years. Same reason good dividend and its been in the reinvestment program for that time.
Yup; XOM, Conocophillips and Occidental.
I shifted about 50% into energy 3.5 years ago, 12% into precious metals and mining and the remaining 40% or so into stupid broad-based strategic investing fund, which also has about 5% in energy. I am not a master investor, just more a common sense type. The rewards have been gratifying.
Care to share the approx annual dividend rate?
XOM’s current yield is 1.81.
Better though, since Nov. of 2001, stock has gone from $37 to $88. Not too shabby.

I hear Dems saying that drilling now won’t do anything for the short term. That is BS. The oil doesn’t have to be physically on the market for the price to fall. The knowledge that America is on the roll and about to pump out some major oil would make the prices drop almost immediately. All this inflationary speculation would end overnight, IMO.
That’s when you sell your interests. ;)
I bought 4,000 shares of Williams Companies at 89 cents a share in 2003.
I’m in good shape.
Will you be my financial advisor?
What’s that?
Okay, that one worked out, but you also have to know that I bought ValuJet two weeks before it crashed in the Everglades.
I think that one ending up costing me about $6,000 before I just ate the loss.
It’s primarily an oil company. WMB is the ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange.
$38.78...wow. Excellent.
