Traditional energy vs clean energy: which to choose?
Traditional energy (XEG) offers high dividends and strong cash flows but is exposed to energy transition risk. Clean energy (ZCLN) offers growth potential but is more volatile and often unprofitable.
Why is the Canadian energy sector so important?
Canada is the 4th largest oil producer globally and holds the 3rd largest proven reserves. The energy sector represents about 17% of the TSX. Canadian sector dividends benefit from the dividend tax credit.
