Time To Get Out of Energy?

November 2nd, 2007

Speaking during a Personal MarketWatch interview with senior columnist Chuck Jaffe, Bernard Horn, who runs Polaris Global Value Fund, indicated that companies like Chevron and Chesapeake Energy, while great companies, are not necessarily the stocks to own right now.

Oil DerrickHis rationale was that the energy stocks in particular, but also the metals stocks, are valued at unsustainable levels of crude and ore prices.

I’ve never been one to consider myself greedy, and this short blurb from MarketWatch.com got me thinking as to whether or not I should start parsing my portfolio of energy.

I’m a firm believer that oil is going to $100 per barrel, if not a bit higher. But I’d rather leave a little money on the table than be taken to the cleaners.

What do you think. Is it time to sell energy stocks?
