"boycott companies such as Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Chevron Corp. and Exxon Mobil Corp. saying they import too much from the Middle East. It suggests buying instead from companies like Citgo Petroleum Corp., which it says imports no Mideast oil.

Citgo is indirectly owned by Petroleos de Venezuela SA, the state oil company of Venezuela, which is a founding member of OPEC and the fourth-largest supplier of U.S. oil imports in 2005.

About half of Citgo's oil comes from Venezuela and the rest from the ever-changing spot market, which includes oil from sources including the Middle East, according to Citgo spokesman Fernando Garay.

Still, Citgo imports significantly less Middle Eastern oil than other major branded retailers such as Shell, BP PLC, ConocoPhillips, and Exxon Mobil, according to government statistics tracked by the trade publication National Petroleum News."

I highly doubt that they are invested in any oil company. While the headlines might scream about the profits of Exxon/Mobil the rate of return on petrochemical stocks are horrible, and they are saddled with some of the lowest P/E ratios of any industry. But I am sure that is not what you wanted to read.

Good luck, his investments aren't in the oil companies such as Texaco or Chevron, I doubt you are smart enough to even figure where his money is invested.
