The fact that Trump tapped him at the height of the covid pandemic to be CIA Directorshould tell you everything about the level of trust and access he has… According to him this initiative could unleash an estimated $2.2 trillion into U.S. tech. He calls it "Manhattan II." If history is any guide, this could be the most important financial story of the decade. Because the last time America launched something like this, a handful of tiny companies soared 5,000%… 8,000%… even 10,000% in the two decades that followed.

How Investors Can Play the Oil Market After Venezuela Shake-Up
Posted On Jan 07, 2026 by Chris Markoch
The oil market is facing renewed volatility following the Trump administration's decision to forcibly remove Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. The impact is not showing up in the price of crude oil…yet.

But don’t let that make you complacent. This is a seismic shift that reverberates far beyond geopolitics and could directly impact global supply and future pricing. That’s because Venezuela holds some of the world's largest oil reserves, yet its output in 2025 averaged only about 900,000 barrels per day. That’s less than 1% of global consumption.
As markets digest this regime change, investors are eyeing opportunities tied to potential production rebounds, shifting OPEC+ dynamics, and North American refiners. Strategic positioning in the oil market now requires balancing near-term uncertainty with long-term upside potential.
Here are three options for investors looking to profit from changing energy flows, including exposure to U.S. majors like Chevron, oil-focused ETFs, and energy infrastructure plays that could benefit from rising exports.
Chevron: A Direct Venezuela Reentry Play
Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) stands out as the only U.S. oil major still maintaining operations in Venezuela, granting it a first-mover advantage should sanctions ease or production ramp up. CVX has historically managed geopolitical complexity with discipline, balancing shareholder returns with strategic exposure to emerging reserves.
As Venezuelan crude potentially reenters global markets, Chevron could capture significant upside through expanded heavy crude output. Its diversified global portfolio and buyback-driven capital return program also make it a defensive energy giant for investors seeking yield and exposure to upstream strength. The stock's positioning against Brent and WTI price movements ensures it remains a levered play on global oil prices with less political downside compared to pure Venezuelan assets.
To be clear, this is a long-term proposition that may not show up in Chevron’s balance sheet for many years. However, this could change the narrative around CVX stock, particularly since it pays an attractive dividend that has a 4.36% yield as of January 7.
Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund: A Steady Oil Market Proxy
For those preferring diversified exposure, the Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA: XLE) offers a broad and liquid way to play oil price movements. This ETF tracks the largest U.S. energy names, including ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM), Chevron, and ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP), providing balanced exposure across upstream, midstream, and downstream segments.
Investors will also get exposure to several of the leading oil services companies. If U.S. oil companies make significant investments in Venezuela, these companies will be essential.
XLE historically outperforms during oil upcycles while delivering steady dividends in slower markets. As volatility returns to the oil market, XLE provides a cost-effective hedge against geopolitical disruption, eliminating single-stock risk. Rising demand, constrained OPEC capacity, and potential normalization of Venezuelan supply could position this ETF for solid total returns through 2026.
Kinder Morgan: Infrastructure Upside From Export Growth
While producers and ETFs offer direct exposure to oil prices, midstream infrastructure companies like Kinder Morgan (KMI) play a quieter but equally lucrative role. If Venezuelan supply returns to global markets, U.S. Gulf Coast ports, pipelines, and storage facilities could see increased activity.
Kinder Morgan, one of North America's largest oil and gas transporters, stands to benefit from higher export volumes and refinery throughput. Its fee-based revenue model cushions investors from oil price swings, while steady dividend growth provides income stability.
KMI offers a compelling way to profit from expanding trade flows fueled by geopolitical reshuffling in the oil sector. KMI stock also pays a reliable dividend with a compelling yield of 4.35%.
Positioning for a Rebalanced Oil Market
The removal of Venezuela's long-time leader has reset the energy landscape. Whether through equity exposure in Chevron, diversified ETFs like XLE, or infrastructure plays such as Kinder Morgan, investors have multiple strategies to capture the next phase of the oil market cycle.
Political transition often precedes production opportunity, and positioning early can yield strong returns as energy supply chains rebalance. A mix of upstream, broad-market, and midstream investments offers the best blend of risk management and potential upside in the evolving world of oil investing.
