Best Oil Stocks To Follow Today – December 28th

Exxon Mobil, Chevron, and ConocoPhillips are the three Oil stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Oil stocks are shares of companies involved in the crude oil value chain — including exploration and production firms, refiners, midstream (transportation and storage) companies, and oilfield service providers. Their share prices are often sensitive to movements in global oil prices, demand cycles, geopolitical events, and regulatory or environmental policy changes. As a group they tend to be more cyclical and volatile than many broader-market sectors. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Oil stocks within the last several days.
