ConocoPhillips stands to benefit most from the recent oil price spike due to its production focus and lack of refining operations. The Marathon Oil acquisition of FY 2024 and organic production growth have already boosted Q1 earnings, positioning COP for further upside as petroleum prices rise. COP trades at a discount to energy rivals, on a forward P/E basis, with potential for revaluation if higher realized prices persist amid Middle East tensions.
In the latest trading session, ConocoPhillips (COP) closed at $96.96, marking a +2.4% move from the previous day.
Oil and energy stocks Chevron Corp (NYSE:CVX), ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP), and EOG Resources Inc (NYSE:EOG) are higher today, as rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East lift crude prices.
