20% Of Retail Investors Demanded Energy Stocks the Most in Q2’22

October 3, 2022 (Investorideas.com Newswire) According to MoneyTransfers.com, 20% of retail investors were most interested in energy stocks in Q2’22. Other sectors, such as technology and real estate, also saw demand at 19% and 16%, respectively.

Speaking on the data, MoneyTransfers.com CEO, Jonathan Merry, said, “Firms specializing in exploring, producing, and marketing oil, gas, and renewable resources make up the energy sector. Retail investors are taking a more active role in managing their portfolios and making sector-specific bets. This is in contrast to the wider market, where many investors are still sitting on the sidelines.”

He added, “The energy sector has been one of the biggest beneficiaries of this trend, as retail investors have poured money into stocks that have been out of favor for years. This could be a sign that we are seeing a shift in the market, with retail investors becoming more comfortable taking on risk.”

The Energy Sector Is Bullish, and the Russian Factor

The oil and gas industry is growing, and there are more opportunities for renewable energy companies. Yet, the skyrocketing increase in oil prices – up more than 50% year to date – fueled the flames of already smoldering energy stocks.

And it is likely that, for the time being, oil prices will stay high. Oil price volatility might persist for many reasons. For instance, lower oil inventories, sanctions on Russia, and any more penalties that may be applied in the future are some of these factors.

Investing in Energy Stocks Has Its Benefits

The size of the market and the industry’s recent profits are two major arguments in favor of investing in the energy sector. Besides, the world’s energy market is vast.

Also, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that by 2035, the world’s energy demand will have increased by more than 30%. This is a positive pointer and a reason to invest the most.

Moreover, several investment opportunities exist in the energy market’s several sectors. One can invest in production, distribution, storage, exploitation, and renewable energy. Full story and statistics can be found here: 20% Of Retail Investors Demanded Energy Stocks the Most in Q2’22
