Buying Something Hated

The most hated sector right now is anything energy related. If you are looking for value and will forgo any momentum, then I suggest you take a look the integrated oil companies. My favorites include Suncor (SU) , Occidental (OXY), Chevron (CVX), and Conoco (COP). All are closer to their 52-week lows than their 52-week highs. And all now yield at least 2% (except SU). Suncor is the most levered to the price of crude with its Canadian Oil Sands.
