In this issue of Energy and Income Advisor, Elliott and I highlight another Roundtable. This time, it’s our views on the giants of the energy investing universe: Super majors, the world’s biggest non-government oil and natural gas producers.

Following the template of our past Roundtables, we focused our comments on several key talking points: (1) Our general view of super majors as investments now; (2) Super majors’ success (or lack thereof) in keeping up with the latest technologies, processes and investment opportunities in the energy space; (3) The importance of super majors’ ongoing diversification efforts, (4) The relative importance of litigation, regulation and political turmoil to our analysis of super majors and (5) Our top recommendations of the super majors.
