Oil Refinery Dividend Stock Investing - These Portfolio Generated 12.26% Yearly

Oil dropped to just over $40 per barrel, and oil stocks have taken a hit. If you're worried that oil will stay at a low price, then refiners are a good investment.

They do very well when the price of crude is low. Low prices means they can refine more oil, so, apart from the initial hit on inventory, future profit opportunities are strong. People also tend to buy more gas when oil is low, so there's more demand for the refineries.

My latest research focus was the Asset Management, Industrial and finally the Energy Sector.

Within the Energy sector, companies from the downstream segment like Oil refinery stocks look attractive for me. They do not depend highly on the oil price, more on the cracking margin.

The business of the refining players is negatively correlated with crude prices. This is because the companies use oil as an input from which they derive refined petroleum products like gasoline – the prime transportation fuel in the U.S. Hence, lower the oil price, higher will be their profits.



We can say that the decline in crude price, which is expected to continue for some time, will bring more good news for the firms engaged in refining oil.

This means not that downstream companies are better when the oil price slumps. My research result of the past decade was that they also lose value and they are highly volatile. 

In 2008, the year of the financial crisis, the portfolio of the best refinery dividend paying oil stocks lost more than half of its value. After the sell-off, it tripled its value.

Attached is a list of 12 dividend paying oil refinery stocks that gave investors a great past return. Over the last decade, those stocks delivered a 12.26% average yearly return.

The biggest threat is in my view the possibility of a political change in the energy sector. Do politicians want more renewable energy production or put they more money into jobs and growth via the old systems.

Energy is definitely the most important sector that benefits when growth should be created for the economy.

These are the best dividend picks from the Oil Refinery Industry...
