BUZZBERG Alpha Score combines three things: realized average return, confidence in the sample size, idea volume, and speaker reputation. Speakers with only a few calls are pulled closer to the platform average; speakers with many evaluated ideas keep more of their own return. Reputation only boosts: 5.0 or lower is neutral, while scores above 5 add weight. Scores are normalized to 0-100; 100 is best. Read the FAQ

Oakley states his firm keeps about 50% of assets in short-term Treasuries and recently moved duration out to three years to "lock" rates. He anticipates a mid-year market decline typical of the second year of a presidential term. Moving to 3-year duration secures yield before potential rate cuts while avoiding the inflation risk inherent in 10-30 year bonds. LONG short-to-intermediate duration Treasuries as a cash proxy and volatility buffer. Inflation spikes significantly above the locked yield; missed upside if equities rally continuously.

Energy underowned, expect massive rally.
Energy is massively underowned at only 3% of the S&P 500, up 35% year-to-date, and will likely rip like gold and silver did last year as investors scramble to catch up. He owns a full spectrum from producers (Chevron, Exxon, Matador) to midstream/pipelines (Enterprise Products, Energy Transfer) to rigs (Transocean, Noble Drilling) and services (Schlumberger, National Energy Services Reunited). The thesis is supported by strong cash flows, dividends, and years of required maintenance work.

Early commodity super cycle, buy miners.
We are in the early innings of a commodity super cycle that most investors are missing. He owns a diversified basket including Rio Tinto (iron ore, other metals) and Vale (iron ore), both with high dividends, as well as exposure to tungsten, fertilizer, uranium, and antimony. The cycle has been telegraphed for years but remains underowned.

Gold is good buy on dips to $4,000.
Gold is a good investment, and if it dips back to $4,000, it would be a good buy, as he sold some at highs but remains bullish due to currency debasement and inflation.
