However, while the industry has broadly rallied since the low, investors should pause before they jump into the energy sector. Further volatility should be expected in the space, and the impact of the price collapse will likely be felt for a long time. Instead, market participants would be wise to look at the industrial sector, which is tied to many of the macroeconomic trends benefitting energy but doesn't carry the same risks.
It's understandable if investors remain concerned by industrial or energy-related stocks. Both groups continue to see big swings, and that's always unsettling, even if the move is to the upside. The important lesson for investors to learn is to remove emotion from the equation as much as possible. Don't focus on day-to-day noise or rumors or speculation. Instead, focus on the fundamentals of the companies, and built your portfolio on facts and hard data. That is a strategy that will work for you in any environment.
