Parsley Energy (PE-N)

The best valuation opportunities are in Canada, he thinks. He would sell WPX for the tax loss and buy Parsley instead, who has better exposure to Canada.

US oil stocks He holds 80% Canadian oil and 20% American, and those are two American stocks: Parsley and WPX-N. Good assets, better than peers. If you want American oil, but not Exxon Mobile, looks at these two.

At an $11 billion market cap, it is consider a mid-cap in the US. A Permian play producer, who can likely increase production by 20% per year for the next 7-10 years. It is inexpensive, when considering Midland Texas differentials are expected to narrow back in beginning next year. This could be an acquisition target in the future. Yield 0%. (Analysts’ price target is $41.44)

(A Top Pick September 15/17 Up 10%). There is consolidation going on in the Permian basin and he expects this could be the next target sometime early in 2019. You could see valuation near $45. He was buying more early this week.

(A top pick July 19/17, up 8%) This is a significant weighting for him. Confidant they will beat Q2 results and increase guidance this year. Could be a $45 stock if he is right in his $80 oil price prediction.

A previous Top Pick that he still likes. A good way to gain Permian exposure with a potential 50% upside as a possible take out candidate by Exxon.
