Sector Macro Context

Energy sector fundamentals as of 2026-04-30. Commodity prices heavily influence all setups below.

WTI Crude Oil
~$65–75 / bbl Context
Neutral
Oil is range-bound as OPEC+ production decisions offset US shale growth. Most E&P names generate positive FCF at $55+. The integrated majors (XOM, CVX) remain cash-generative at $45+. Watch for OPEC+ meeting outcomes and US rig count as leading indicators of supply trajectory.
Natural Gas
LNG Export Demand Buildout
Structural Bull
LNG export capacity is on track to nearly double by 2028. US nat gas production is the lowest-cost source for global LNG. AI data center power demand is adding a new structural demand layer. EQT is the primary beneficiary; XOM, COP, and CVX have significant LNG exposure via international projects.
Crack Spreads
$18–22/bbl Gulf Coast 3-2-1
Compressed
Crack spreads are well below 2022–2023 peak ($40+/bbl) but above break-even for US refiners. VLO, MPC, and PSX are all positioned at support waiting for seasonal driving demand and potential Mexico import demand to improve margins. Renewable diesel (DGD) provides VLO with an independent earnings stream.
