Editor's note: CNBC nicknamed him "The Prophet." He called Netflix at 78 cents, Apple at 38 cents, and Amazon at $2.80 – long before anyone knew their names. He's appeared on 60 Minutes twice. Now former hedge-fund manager Whitney Tilson is naming what he calls "America's Greatest Retirement Stock" right now – one company at the center of the AI and energy boom. He's giving away the name and ticker, free. See below...
It beat Apple, Amazon & the S&P– COMBINED
Every talking head on CNBC will tell you to own Apple.
Or Amazon.
Or just "buy the index."
Here's what they won't tell you:
There's a single, little-known stock that has beaten all three – COMBINED – over the past decade.
Apple returned about 1,200%. Amazon, 660%. The S&P 500, 330%.
And stretch it further? More than 8,300% in total returns.
Enough to turn $10,000 into $830,000.
This little-known company has virtually no debt... only 114 employees... $798 million in annual revenue... more than 60 cents of every dollar flowing straight to the bottom line.
It sits at the dead center of the biggest spending boom in American history – AI, energy, and a critical third industry almost nobody is talking about yet.
And right now, there's a rare discount window open on this stock. Past discount windows like this one have turned a $10,000 stake into $55,000 – in just over 12 months.
I just recorded a full presentation – name, ticker, complete story – 100% free.
3 Energy ETFs to Buy as U.S.-Iran Tensions Send Oil Prices Higher
Posted On Jul 08, 2026 by Ian Cooper
The U.S.-Iran ceasefire was nice while it lasted. Even the pullback in oil prices was great to see. Unfortunately, not only are oil prices starting to gush higher again, but the ceasefire is no longer in place. In fact, according to President Trump, the ceasefire is over after the latest round of strikes.

Those comments come after the U.S. and Iran accused each other of violating the agreement. In turn, the U.S. conducted a “series of powerful strikes” against Iran in retaliation for three commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz coming under attack, as noted by CNBC.
In addition, as noted by Centcom, as also quoted by CNBC, “The U.S. strikes are in response to Iranian attacks on three commercial vessels that were transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s demonstrated aggression was unwarranted, dangerous, and a clear violation of the ceasefire.”
That’s why oil prices are just starting to gush higher again.
And that’s because any optimism created by the temporary ceasefire has been replaced by fresh concerns about potential disruptions to oil supplies. For now, the hope that the ceasefire would bring lasting stability has faded, and markets are once again watching developments in the region closely.
With an expense ratio of 0.08%, the SPDR Energy Select Sector ETF provides exposure to companies in the oil, gas and consumable fuel, energy equipment and services industries, as noted by State Street SPDR
The ETF is heavily weighted toward large, established energy giants, which account for a significant portion of its total holdings and help provide more resilience during market downturns.
Some of those holdings include Exxon Mobil, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Williams Cos., and EOG Resources, to name just a few.
ETF #2: A Play on Oil Exploration
SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF (NYSEAERCA: XOP)
With an expense ratio of 0.35%, the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF provides exposure to the oil and gas exploration and production segment of the S&P TMI, which comprises the following sub-industries: Integrated Oil & Gas, Oil & Gas Exploration & Production, and Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing, as noted by State Street SPDR. Some of its top holdings include Callon Petroleum, SM Energy Company, Devon Energy Corporation, EOG Resources, and ConocoPhillips, for example.
XOP also has an extremely high correlation with the price of oil, making it a suitable for investors seeking direct leverage to upward movements in crude oil prices.
With an expense ratio of 0.40%, the iShares Global Energy ETF provides investors with broad exposure to the global energy sector by tracking the investment results of an index composed of energy-related equities from companies around the world. The fund is designed to capture the performance of large- and mid-cap companies involved in the exploration, production, refining, distribution, and servicing of energy resources, including traditional oil and gas businesses as well as integrated energy firms.
Because of its global focus, IXC provides exposure not only to U.S.-based energy companies but also to international firms, allowing investors to participate in global trends.
Which Energy ETF Is Right for You?
While investing directly in individual oil companies such as Exxon Mobil, Chevron, or Occidental Petroleum can provide targeted exposure to higher oil prices, energy ETFs offer a diversified approach by spreading exposure across multiple companies within the sector. Funds like the SPDR Energy Select Sector ETF (XLE), SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF (XOP), and iShares Global Energy ETF (IXC) provide investors with different ways to participate in potential energy market strength.
