Unlike most other sectors, the energy sector has performed well this year. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine pushed up oil and gas prices initially. Rising global production and supply, along with the U.S. releasing millions of barrels of oil from its Strategic Petroleum Reserve, pushed down gasoline prices to pre-Ukraine war levels by August.

Oil and gas prices, however, are expected to move up again as OPEC+ cuts production. Let’s take a look at the five best and worst performing energy stocks in November 2022.
