Republican victory will boost these 21 stocks

<snip>
Oil producers and refiners: Republican victory may pave the way for expansion of the controversial Keystone Pipeline connecting Canadian oil sands to U.S. refiners and the Gulf of Mexico. Or it might increase the perception that this is likely.

This would benefit energy companies with oil-sands exposure like Canadian Natural Resources, Canadian Oil Sands COS, +4.49% and Cenovus Energy CVE, +5.52% says McDonald.

Natural gas and coal: Restrictions on liquid natural gas (LNG) exports may also be eased following a Republican Senate victory. That would benefit U.S. domestic natural gas producers, of course. But the play with bigger upside might be coal producers, says McDonald.

Coal producers he likes as a play on these themes include Peabody Energy, Cloud Peak Energy CLD, +4.37% CONSOL Energy CNX, +3.36% Hallador Energy HNRG, +0.34% and Alpha Natural Resources ANR, +9.01% - Marketwatch.com


Who saw this coming?

Dirty fossil fuels.
