This is an interesting way to look at things-
- In a note Monday, Morgan Stanley's Devin McDermott argued that North American oil stocks are "pricing in" $64 WTI (NYSEARCA:USO).
- McDermott argues that while front-month pricing of $115+ may be driven by politics, the two-year strip of futures prices has already risen to ~$94.
- On McDermott's numbers, Canadians Suncor (NYSE:SU) and Cenovus (NYSE:CVE) are the least expensive names in his coverage, and appear to be priced for $53 and $57 WTI, respectively.
- Meanwhile, Marathon (NYSE:MRO) and Devon (NYSE:DVN) price in $81 and $76 WTI, in Morgan Stanley's view.
ADM up another $3 shoot me.
