| Nomura: It's Finally Time To Buy E&P Stocks | |
| | |
|
Analysts at Nomura released a new report in which they initiated coverage on a long list of stocks within the U.S. Energy sector.
The report focused on Exploration and Production (E&P) companies.
Outlook
Analysts have a bullish view on North American E&P overall, despite noting that the S&P 500 is at all-time highs.
Analysts believe that oil prices, which are down nearly 50 percent in the past year, drive the performance of many E&P stocks, and they believe that a recovery in oil prices is coming in the near future.
