I'm neutral on energy-- but I'm very bullish on the drilling stocks, so I won't let a Monday morning mood swing sell-off deter me ... but if I were to buy gas or oil, or start listing stocks levered to gas or oil on this thread, I would lean towards natural gas simply because of the relentless selling we've recently witnessed.
anyway, drillers are my first choice-- second choice would be a select number of uranium levered stocks.
...and I don't really care about the effects of bird flu on my portfolio because throughout the history of mankind anyone of the "four-horseman" could destroy a persons wealth and happiness.
...such is life...!
