People will always need energy. All energy stocks and bonds are being heavily pressured right now but not all are vulnerable. If you invest or loan money to a retailer of energy instead of a producer, you can't get hurt. They buy at market, apply a profit margin and sell it. If you buy their bonds, they are selling at a par of 65 right now which means you make 35% on your investment the first day. They are so tarnished by the sector that they are paying over 8%. That's on face value, not the 65$ you bought it at which means you are really making over 11%. Quick, someone tell them in the inner city to correct the income inequality.
