Q: Hi
If I want to have global exposure to Oil and Gas sector, NOT just Canadian or the US market, is IXC the only ETF option? Or should I buy XLE and add some other ETF which has exposure to Shell, Royal Dutch and other large European big oil cos? My search doesn't seem to yield anything that includes a nice balance between North America and European companies other than IXC. Any suggestions?

Your answers to others' questions seem to suggest that there is some more gain to be made in energy sector. (Paraphrasing here!) Hence this question. I already own XLE/XEG in different accounts.
Thanks in advance.

Q: In January, regarding the above to companies, you stated "We don't like the valuations in the sector (especially RIVN, LCID)..."
My question is, after a significant drop in both, and the requirements for European countries to move into EV's in the coming years, is it reasonable to take a small position in one or both to sit on the shelf for 10 years. Is there another co (next to Tesla) that might be a better "shelf" stock. Thanks!

Q: good afternoon,
What would recommend buying in US small caps.
Maybe 3 stocks. I would complement with either IWO or the general small cap index.
Growth index should have more tork coming out of recession?
