"If I owned shares in this mutual furd (vgenx) would i be taking advantage or just making a good investment?"
Looks like a pure energy play.
All the companies had record profits the past year. History doesnt allways repeat itself.
Maybe as a short term investment or extra long term but I think these returns in an unstable world are not likely to repeat for long.
I own some of them individually and over time other than halliburton and burlington wich I bought way cheap havent been great performers. Sclumberger I've had for for over 20 years. Coal companies like peabody I like. A lot of these companies have made a lot of money with Iraq. I like the transport/shipping co's too.
Answer depends on the fees.
edit to add: I think all there prices are pretty inflated right now.

I don't think gas prices would skyrocket if you buy a few shares of an oil company. The idea behind a market economy is that if something is scarce, prices go up, some companies invest in production, and maybe they make a profit in meeting people's needs. Course, the perception of collusion/price fixing is unsavory, but that is only a partial explanation of why prices went up. And maybe oil prices will go down again for a while - there was a long stretch where the oil stocks were not so profitable.
If you want to do some investing that has a more beneficial effect, look at wind energy. It is the most cost-competitive alternative, maybe even costs less than coal or oil because it does not generate pollution and greenhouse gasses, which are hidden costs. But wind is more of a long term investment, not as likely to see 150% increases in a year.

Flo, this list is only the top 25 companies in the fund, they own just about everything that has to do with energy however wind generation is not one I recall
Another form of energy yet to be exploited is ocean wave movement. If this could ever be perfected you could close all the nuclear, coal, gas etc... plants worldwide with 0 polution. It has been experimented with but the ocean is a hard nut to crack, just think, free energy worldwide forever............just a dream
