New Energy ETF

An ETF full of new energy shares. Oil, gas and coal will be here for many years to come. As long as they will remain cheaper they are on the winning edge. But the pressure of lowering the emissions of these old sources of energy is building up.

Besides, alternative energy is getting cheaper at the day. But it remains an unbalanced fight. That being said, we cannot deny the surge of alternative energy sources. This market sector is growing with significant figures and with prices of oil and gas getting higher this growth may accelerate even more.

Despite the fact that this new energy ETF seems better fit for the long run we can make some very nice short rides along the way.
