1.60%April 13 | MyPlanIQ portfolio symbol P_36205

As we get into 2012 with the continuing financial crisis over our heads, we continue to look for ideas that we can use to build the best long term portfolio possible.

Dan Dzombak of the Motley Fool outlines their 2012 energy selections. Energy is a vital component to a commodities asset class and commodities are going to be important as inflation is going to be an unpleasant reality for some time to come.

We are going to

  • Peabody Energy (BTU) Coal
  • Kinder Morgan (KMI) Oil and Gas
  • SunPower (SPWR) Solar
  • Schlumberger (SLB) Oil Field Services
  • Ultra Petroleum (UPL) Natural Gas

This may not be attractive today but is worth tracking and comparing with our dividend ETF benchmark.
