At 6.07pm last Friday, history was made.
The price of oil hit a new all time record at $139.12.
It’s causing some short-term pain for everyone.
But in the medium-to-long-term, this is manna from heaven for three specific recommendations in the Profit Hunter portfolio.
I’d like to tell you about them. Because we believe every serious investor ought to have some exposure to them before the price of oil gets any higher.
Why? Let me explain...
Company #1: In pole position to profit from the "New Kuwait" Far, far away from the insanity of the Middle East, the oil fields of West Africa are an increasingly enticing prospect.
That’s splendid news for the first of my three ‘must-buy’ companies.
You see, it’s a pan-Africa conglomerate and is set to be one of the first inline to take the full brunt of the investment capital about to pour into the oil region.
Angola has now become Africa’s biggest oil producer. In fact, some are going so far as to call it the "New Kuwait". And this clever little firm is investing heavily in that country and that looks set to pay off massively as the economy continues to grow.
Not only that, it controls a major port in Equatorial Guinea... a port in one of the most oil-rich areas on the continent.
But here’s the thing... every single barrel of oil that gets drilled from this area will have to be shipped out through this port at the heart of Africa’s oil industry.
I’ve prepared an exclusive report that gives you the all details about this share, including what it does, why it’s so well positioned to gain, and crucially,
exactly how much I think it could make you. Company #2: The "primary destination" for the multi-billion petrodollar tidal wave The rising price of oil is going to speed-up the transfer of wealth from the oil-consuming industrialised countries of the West to the oil exporters - and above all to OPEC.
Africa is emerging as a new centre of the oil industry, but it isn’t going to displace the Arabs.
In fact, the Gulf States are going to be the big winners from rising oil prices as all those additional petrodollars head their way.
They’re going to invest it somewhere and this clever little outfit will be first in line to help them to just that.
I can almost imagine the bright boys at my second "high oil price" company rubbing their hands at the prospect of hoovering-up all that additional money!
They will be the primary vehicle for rich Persian Gulf investors to invest in international markets.
Company #3: The only alternative to oil-based fuel?And then there is the unlikely beneficiary of higher oil prices: Sugar!
As petrol gets ever more expensive, countries will look for alternative fuels to run their cars. And sugar-based ethanol is practically the only commercially viable bio-fuel available at the moment.
You see, biofuels have had a bad press lately. Not only are most biofuels environmentally unfriendly, but they’re economically unsound too.
But there’s always an exception to the rule - and this is it!
Sugar-based ethanol is practically the ONLY commercially viable biofuel.
We will need an alternative to oil - and the more expensive the black stuff gets, the more precious will be the alternatives.
In a Bloomberg survey of nine commodities analysts, six of them were bullish on the outlook for the price of raw sugar - that is the contract that underlies the price of this investment.
Two of them were neutral. Just one thought that it would fall. I think he’s wrong.
I see a major sugar crunch in the near future - one which could potentially make a killing for my readers.
