Most people see the headlines, argue in the comments, and never learn how to position themselves. I’m not here for that. I’m here to show you:

Who benefits first from the Venezuela move 🛢

Who benefits the most as production ramps over the next 3–7 years

Exactly how I’d split $1,000 across SLB, Chevron, Halliburton, Valero (and the ETF route if you want to keep it simple)

How oil, AI, energy and rate cuts all tie together going into 2026 and beyond

This ain’t a “get rich by Friday” video.
This is a long-term positioning play for people who really want to build a portfolio that eats while the world argues about politics.

💰 My $1,000 Oil Gameplan (Explained in the Video)

Inside the video I break down, step-by-step, how I’d structure:
$350 → Chevron (CVX) – already on the ground, less ramp-up headache
$300 → SLB – technology + steam injection + extraction = without them, that oil stays in the ground
$200 → Halliburton (HAL) – logistics, drilling, cleanup, operational scale
$150 → Valero (VLO) – one of the key refiners that can actually handle heavy Venezuelan crude
