3 Top High-Yield Energy Stocks to Buy for the Long Haul
The big story in the energy sector is the shift toward cleaner alternatives, but it's not like flipping a light switch. The energy transition will likely take decades, and there's still ample room for oil and natural gas companies to generate profits. Here are three energy stocks you can own to generate income even as the world moves toward renewable power sources.
U.S. integrated energy giant Chevron (NYSE: CVX) has chosen to stay the course and remain focused on oil and natural gas. At least that's its plan for now, given that its clean-energy investments so far have been fairly small. That's not a big deal since oil and natural gas are expected to remain important parts of the energy landscape for decades to come. Meanwhile, investors can collect the stock's generous 4.2% dividend yield, which is backed by over three decades of annual dividend increases.
