In this article, we will discuss the energy stocks that are gaining this week.
The S&P 500 Energy index gained around 2.5% between November 7 and November 14, while the overall S&P 500 index largely remained flat during the period.
The energy sector received a major boost from the sharp uptick in natural gas prices, which are now hovering at their highest level since December 2022 on the back of record LNG exports and the anticipated increase in demand due to colder weather next month.
Moreover, the International Energy Agency revised its outlook for global oil demand last week, forecasting that the demand for the fossil fuel could continue growing into 2050. This marks a sharp shift from the global energy watchdog’s previous stance, when it estimated a peak in global fossil fuel demand before the end of this decade.
The commodity analysts at Goldman Sachs also followed suit and now expect the global oil demand to grow to 113 million barrels per day in 2040, compared to 103.5 million barrels in 2024. The revision is driven by rising energy needs, as well as the slower-than-expected progress of net-zero policies.
