Piper Sandler has revised its price target for EOG Resources (EOG, Financial), reducing it slightly from $135 to $133. The firm has maintained a Neutral rating on the shares. This adjustment comes as EOG faces a complex market environment in anticipation of the first quarter earnings reports.
The current market landscape is influenced by ongoing trade tensions and overall economic uncertainty, compounded by increased oil supply from OPEC+. Additionally, the seasonal gas market remains volatile, further complicating the outlook for energy companies.
Despite these challenges, Piper Sandler notes that the current market volatility may present strategic entry points for investors, particularly in companies like EOG Resources that possess extensive low-cost inventory and robust financial stability. However, the firm expresses a slight preference for oil over gas assets as the sector navigates potential shifts and performance factors in the short term.
