Our PAST TOP PICK with HAL has triggered its stop at $35.  To remain disciplined, we recommend covering the position at this time.

Based on valuation, this could bounce to $31.32, but oil is under pressure no matter who wins the US election.

A trump presidency will actually hurt oil stocks, because he will add more drilling. Better to look at oil services companies like HAL.

SLB vs. HAL

Neither. Look at the 10-year charts, both lower today than 10 years ago. When flush with money, make acquisitions; then when things turn nasty, take write downs. Result is less than zero value creation for shareholders. The only people making money are the executives.

TOP PICK
Halliburton Co
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We again reiterate this global oilfield service providers as a TOP PICK.  Continued positive outlooks for oil prices will stimulate demand for their services, causing analysts to expect over 30% growth in cash flow.  Quarterly cash reserves are growing again while debt is retired and shares bought back.  It trades at 13x earnings and supports a 30% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $33) to $35 at this time, looking to achieve $47 -- upside potential over 20%.  Yield 1.6%  

(Analysts’ price target is $47.49)

TOP PICK
Halliburton Co
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Recently reported operating income was up 33%, despite their exit from Russia in 2022.  Cash reserves are stable, while debt is retired and shares bought back.  It trades at 13x earnings, 3.5x book (a little expensive), and supports a robust 30% ROE.  Its dividend is backed by a payout ratio under 25% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $28, looking to achieve $47 -- upside potential of 28%.  Yield 1.7%

They just topped EPS, but missed revenues, with US revenue falling sequentially.  Guidance was positive with oilfield services to remain strong; their international business will drive growth (i.e. Middle East, Africa). They're also confident about their construction business.

It reports Tuesday. The stock is getting crushed, even though earnings are oil are soaring. It's time to reassess this. A fine stock to hold for years.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Halliburton Co
They delivered a pretty good report yesterday, but Baker Hughes' report today dragged down this and other oil stocks. HAL is a much better company than BH. He added more shares today and yesterday. HAL reported a modest top and bottom line beat, but investors who took profits picked on the slightly disappointing margins. HAL raised its 35% growth forecast for this year over the previous 25% forecast; and they noted new projects starting later this year. Meanwhile, international business is gaining momentum this quarter. HAL said there was already supply tightness before the Russian war. The stock trades at a reasonable valuation and is a definite buy on the current dip.

They have a conference call on Monday. Oil companies are on fire, because they're not drilling a lot. He's bullish oil stocks and this is one to own.
