U.S. activist investor Elliott Investment Management has taken a short position against British oil major Shell as part of a global hedging program.

Shell's stock has risen 16.6% YTD, outperforming broader market trends despite lacklustre oil prices. Key drivers for the rise include continued share buybacks, sustained dividend payouts, and promising plans to pivot towards relatively cleaner energy sources like LNG. Moreover, its market multiples indicate a 30% upside potential, with Shell's P/E ratios still below five-year averages despite recent price increases.
SHEL partners with McDermott to drive engineering innovation, enhance procurement efficiency and accelerate low-carbon solutions worldwide.
Shell's integrated business model spans exploration, production, processing, and marketing, ensuring profitability at each stage and positioning it well for future growth. I assign a "Buy" rating to Shell shares with a target price of $78, reflecting a 16% growth potential from the current price. Despite challenges like energy transition and geopolitical risks, Shell's leadership in LNG and investments in low-carbon energy offer strong growth drivers.
Shell (SHEL) reachead $73.03 at the closing of the latest trading day, reflecting a +1.39% change compared to its last close.
