Trading Idea of the Day
NYSE:OXY - Occidental Petroleum Corporation - BULLISH BIAS
-
Sky high oil prices and tight supply make oil an appealing investment.
-
A decade of low oil prices of ever-increasing ESG concerns has caused a structural undersupply of fossil fuels. Conflict in Eastern Europe has put further pressure on oil supply across Europe.
- Increased oil and gas pricing globally has made Occidental a cash printing machine in 2022.
- Occidental Petroleum is a US oil giant focused predominantly on shareholder returns through dividends, share buybacks and debt repayment.
