VDE: Hitting The Pause Button On Energy After A Strong Q2 Recovery (Rating Downgrade)
I am downgrading VDE to a hold after a strong rally, citing potential near-term downside if Middle East tensions ease and oil prices fall. VDE remains attractively valued with a high-yield and solid profitability, but technical resistance and seasonal headwinds suggest caution. The ETF's concentrated portfolio and high volatility add risk, while liquidity remains a bright spot with tight spreads and strong trading volume.

The Energy Sell-Off Has Me Interested
I see value in the Energy sector due to its recent underperformance, expected demand rise, and potential trade clarity boosting crude oil prices. Crude oil demand is set to increase, making the current sell-off an opportunity to buy into undervalued Energy ETFs like VDE and IXC. The US's reliance on international trade and a weakening USD could further support crude oil prices, benefiting the Energy sector.
