2 Reasons Why I Believe VDE And Energy Stocks Could Be Strategic Assets For 2025
VDE's yield of 3.15% is lower than iShares MSCI Global Energy Producer at 4.13%, but its expense ratio is significantly cheaper. The P/E of VDE is 13.5X, half that of the S&P 500; earnings growth is expected to be negative in 2024 but forecasted to turn positive in FY 2025. With global GDP forecasted to grow by 2.7%, China at 4.5%, inflation above 2%, and potential rate cuts, energy demand could rise in 2025.
