Bet on These 3 Energy Stocks With Juicy Dividend Yields
The price of West Texas Intermediate crude is approaching $90 per barrel. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries’ prediction of robust global demand growth amid tight supplies is primarily aiding the crude price rally.
The favorable crude price is making the exploration and production business extremely profitable. Higher upstream activities will increase demand for oilfield services since the players will guide explorers and producers in efficiently setting up oil and gas wells.
Increased drilling activities will boost demand for midstream assets as more volumes of the commodities will get transported and stored. Also, the shortage in global distillate fuel oil inventories is putting upward pressure on fuel prices, thereby aiding refiners.
Given the backdrop, it is the ideal time for investors to allocate money to prospective energy stocks offering attractive dividend yields. We are employing our proprietary Stock Screener to zero in on three such names that are well-poised to gain. One of the stocks carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), while the other two sport a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). All the stocks offer juicy dividend yields that are higher than the energy sector’s 3.4% yield.
