☆ Oil prices are finally rallying. Here's what it means for three key energy stocks
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-27 | by ( Kevin Stankiewicz | In Kevinstankiewicz | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +7 min

A long-awaited rally in crude oil prices has helped the Club's three oil-and-gas companies become some of our top-performing stocks over the past month. Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, and West Texas Intermediate crude, the U.S. oil standard, have both climbed by more than 10% since late June. Energy stocks linked to crude — including Club names Halliburton (HAL), Coterra Energy (CTRA) and Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD) — have risen on oil's fortunes. U.S. producers also have shown restraint, Kumar told CNBC, with domestic crude production hovering around 12.3 million barrels per day all year . Moreover, a year-over-year drop in U.S. rig counts points to "a bit of a decline in oil production" down the road, Kumar said.

☆ OPEC+'s mixed messages, recession fears make it too early to buy the dip on our oil stocks

A slide in crude oil prices has weighed on the Club's three energy holdings. Brent crude — the global oil benchmark — and West Texas Intermediate Crude, the U.S. oil standard, have fallen roughly 7% and 8%, respectively, over the past week. @CL.1 5D mountain West Texas Intermediate crude prices over the past five days. In those instances, Gabelman said he thinks oil prices are unlikely to react significantly. In sum, we find the situation leading up to the OPEC+ meeting too murky to make a move on our oil stocks, despite their recent swoon.

☆ Pioneer Natural jumps on report of buyout talks with Exxon

April 10 (Reuters) - Pioneer Natural Resources Co's (PXD.N) shares rose as much as 8.5% on Monday following a report that Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM.N) held preliminary talks with the U.S. shale oil producer about a possible acquisition. Shares of Pioneer were up 6.5% at $221.74, while Exxon Mobil inched up 0.2% to $115.25. Pioneer is the third-largest oil producer after Chevron Corp (CVX.N) and ConocoPhillips (COP.N) in the Permian basin, the biggest in the United States. Analysts believe Pioneer and other exploration and production companies could be acquired in the coming quarters given oil giants such as Exxon are looking to boost inventory. "Would not be surprised to see Exxon step up for PXD's scale and inventory depth in the Midland Basin, but the price tag will ultimately be based on the oil prices underwritten by Exxon.
