It could seem as though the good old times are over. Gasoline at $4 a gallon is not something we can ignore, and if we take into account that Americans consume nearly 40% of the world's gasoline, you can see where the problems begin. So the surge in oil prices came with an imminent effect on consumers, who had to cut back on their spending.<br /><br />But since we are already in this unpleasant situation, Kiplinger offers some solutions to help investors fight against high oil prices. Kiplinger <a href="http://www.kiplinger.com/columns/picks/archive/2008/pick0613.htm">underlines</a> in this article that one smart move would be to minimize the cost of driving by making some good energy-related investments. <br /><br />Gerry Jordan, manager of Jordan Opportunity, recommends investors invest in oil companies such as <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/schlumberger-ltd-netherlands-antilles/slb/nys">Schlumberger Ltd</a>. (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/schlumberger-ltd-netherlands-antilles/slb/nys">SLB</a>) and <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/weatherford-international-ltd/wft/nys">Weatherford International</a> (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/weatherford-international-ltd/wft/nys">WFT</a>), citing strong international business. In addition, Jordan believes that higher crude prices will increase drilling demand. On the other hand, Jordan also loves power companies like <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/calpine-corporation/cpn/nys">Calpine Corp</a>. (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/calpine-corporation/cpn/nys">CPN</a>) and <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/reliant-energy-inc-new/rri/nys">Reliant Energy Inc</a>. (NYSE: <a href="http://finance.aol.com/quotes/reliant-energy-inc-new/rri/nys">RRI</a>) as he anticipates huge power outages across the globe during this year.<p><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2008/06/16/some-oil-stocks-for-your-portofolio-from-kiplinger/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Some oil stocks for your portofolio from Kiplinger</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2008/06/16/some-oil-stocks-for-your-portofolio-from-kiplinger/">Some oil stocks for your portofolio from Kiplinger</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.bloggingstocks.com">BloggingStocks</a> on Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:45:00 EST.
