One expert expresses confidence in the company's performance due to favorable fundamentals and market momentum.

BUY

Was up 25% last month and it reports Wednesday, which he's confident about.

SELL

He sold it. He bought this last July when the refinery trade was the only opportunity in energy (fundamentals, momentum, driving scene). The opportunity is energy may shift away from refiners in 2026.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Buy it now when oil prices are down.

BUY

Pays a 4.4% dividend, and we're short of oil refiners. It's been oversold like an oil stock--it's a refiner.

BUY

There remains a supply-demand imblance in refined oil products. PSX trades at a very low 6x PE.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 08/23, Down 7.2%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with PSX has triggered its stop at $92.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.  This will result in a net investment loss of 9%, when combined with our previous entry recommendation.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate this international midstream energy company as a TOP PICK.  Expectations for summer travel are bullish, which will support their 2 million bpd downstream operations.  It trades under 2x book and 8x earnings, with a ROE of 44%.  It pays a good dividend, backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We continue to recommend a stop at $92, looking to achieve $121 -- upside potential of 19%.  Yield 3.9%    

(Analysts’ price target is $121.29)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Trading at 5x earnings, 1.7x book and supporting a 40% ROE, we reiterate PSX as a TOP PICK.  The company has a bio-diesel fuel plant coming on soon in California, which used to process oil.  We like that cash reserves are growing and debt is being retired.  Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 20% of cash flow.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $87) to $92, looking to achieve $126 -- upside potential of 18%.  Yield 3.6%   

(Analysts’ price target is $126.00)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O’Reilly

PSX is the spin off of ConocoPhillips downstream refining and distribution assets.  It is generating outstanding cash flow, allowing cash reserves to grow as debt is retired and stock bought back.  It trades under 7x earnings, under 2x book value, and supports a ROE of 40%.  We recommend a stop-loss at $87, looking to achieve $125 - upside of 27%.  Yield 4.0% 

(Analysts’ price target is $125.36)
BUY
Crude oil prices hit 2018 highs PSX, though a levered oil name, is off to the races. The oil rally won't end anytime soon.
COMMENT
Levered energy names like PSX today, saw a reversal from $91 to $87 which concerns him. He expected oil to stall at their June highs, but that hasn't happened. He sees room to the upside, but he expects pullbacks on these names in the short term first. The energy trade still works, but lower will happen first.
COMMENT
Not being paid the annual dividend--why? He still likes this. (Send him a private email about this issue.)
SELL ON STRENGTH
The refiners haven't been doing well in this environment. Let this go at $65.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 11/19, Down 46%) The problem in calling a bottom in oil is what's going to happen to oil's earnings. See what happens in the market for a while, before deciding what to do with this.
TOP PICK
They are in the oil business but are not dependent on the price of oil. The stock recently had a nice setback. The pension funds sold carbon fuel stocks. It has a nice upside potential after falling to technical support. (Analysts’ price target is $122.33)
