Exxon -57% in 77 days and now BULL MARKET?Thanks for viewing. - Exxon lost 57% in 77 days and has since bounced strongly - so are we in a new bull-market? I would give my answer as a resounding no. Why? - Mostly because crude oil is at 30 year lows which renders all upstream activities drastically unprofitable - how unprofitable? Some estimates of Exxon's break even price per barrel are over $70 a barrel ($74 in this article; www.theguardian.com). So each barrel produced, is produced at a significant loss. It would be far more profitable to buy crude on world markets and stop all exploration or production. This would probably not be a long-term solution, but it is being considered instead of locking in a $60 plus loss per barrel. - It seems that at these crude prices that Exxon may even need to write down the value of all exploration and production assets to, or close to, zero. This happened recently for unprofitable shale oil producers - all their equipment was specialised, involved in a now universally unprofitable industry, with few buyers, and would have cost more to transport than would be gained from any sale - so when reality struck, it struck hard. - If suddenly forced to re-value oil reserves they would have a negative value as the oil would cost far more to extract than to leave in the ground. The option to "just stop extraction" isn't there in some cases - as capping a well may damage the resource and incur significant future expense to re-open. - This is a situation similar to that faced by European (and soon American) Banks due to negative interest rates; They now have liabilities on both sides of the balance sheet. The liabilities remain liabilities, but what were once assets are now cash-flow negative. Pretty hard to make money like that. - What hope is there? Oil prices may rise, but not in 2020 I feel. So some pain will need to be incurred. - The Fed is acting as buyer of last resort picking up corporate debt at 100 cents on the dollar with no regard to the credit-worthiness of the issuer. Although, they are not targeting individual Companies yet and Oil and Gas businesses continue to announce bankruptcy. - The consumer (downstream) activities may still be profitable, although the overall revenue should be expected to be down. I read two forecasts for EPS to be reported tomorrow. $0.04 from Investing.com and a consensus expectation of $0.02 from another site that had a view that prices would rise 10%. If you are bullish on earnings like that, I don't see how. Anyway, let's see what happens. Protect those funds (I see prices below $23 before the end of '20).

Short on Exxon Mobil $XOMFundamental analysis: With oil currently trading at around 18$/barrel, it's going to be really tough for oil companies to be operating on a profit for the foreseeable future. Oil production equipment isn't meant to be halted so we can even expect extra logistical cost to storing all of it. Once travel ban is lifted around end of june, i will look to switch to a more bullish position. Technical analysis: Held off posting this idea once I saw the right shoulder of the pattern break but it seems we won't have a daily close over it which means the H&S pattern is still in play. Conservative traders might look to wait for the neckline to break @ around 39$, personally will gradually increase my position as I see this play out. Earnings is in 7 days so watchout for a pre-earnings rally; it's a great opportunity to get a great entry price if it pans out. Currently there's a bearish divergence that was formed on the MACD As you can see our targets line up perfectly with the .618 fibonacci level where we might see a reversal or continuation depending on how the situation develops. Cheers and goodluck TP1 @ 39.00$ TP2 @ 35.75

OXY "SHORT"I have been pretty trash with oil trades.. but this time I believe oxy will reach new all-time lows. There is much uncertainty from investors which makes this a perfect short IMO, I have a 5/8 buy put... didn't short at $17 simply cause I was at a huge loss from some other trade (not enough capital.) I think we will revisit $12 by today and continue to make lower highs throughout the week. This won't stop Donnie Pump from tweeting but there isn't much more he can do right now. The oil cuts aren't enough to ignore the fact we will run out of storage. Good Luck!

Exxon Mobil supply and demand analysis forecastExxon Mobil Corporation #XOM Exxon explores for and produces crude oil and natural gas. As of December 31, 2018, it had approximately 24,696 net operated wells with proved reserves of 24.3 billion oil-equivalent barrels. Exxon stock clear downtrend. With Light Crude Oil and Brent dropping like a rock, many oil related stocks like Exxon Mobil Corporation have been showing a bearish directional bias with long term shorts and new monthly supply imbalances being created and respected for months as can be seen in the monthly timeframe supply and demand technical analysis below. We read about “buy” recommendations not long ago, that was crazy! Those recommendations were probably focused on the price of oil as the reason the share price is down, with an assumption that it will go back up. Cray stuff if you lean purely on fundamentals and earnings, everything is pointing down and downtrending, why buy this stock? Think about it! It is all about the XOM price (cheap in the eyes of those urging “buy”) and an assumption that the price of oil is almost the only relevant determinant of future success of XOM. Two major negatives for Exxon Mobil Corporation currently are competition from renewables and new focus on the climate emergency. Investors might think hard before they assume that the new 10-year low for Exxon Mobile XOM share price is where the slide stops. Using a supply and demand strategy and applying the core concepts on Exxon Mobile yields another outcome. Monthly is downtrending, new supply level being created on the monthly timeframe around $68 per share as a continuation of a monthly downtrend and created also as a continuation of prior monthly supply imbalance from $80 per share.

CALL YOUR BROKER, BLOCK "SHARE LOANING" TO SHORT SELLERS!Hello folks, THIS GOES FOR ALL PUBLIC COMPANIES, NOT JUST TESLA - PLACE A BLOCK ON YOUR ACCOUNT(S) Many may not be aware of this corrupt Wall Street loophole, when you sign a brokerage account, fine print in your contract allows the brokerage firm to loan out your shares to short sellers. It's like buying a Rolls-Royce and you paying the loan, and the company turns around and loans the car out to another person while you are not driving the car and profiting off both sides at your expense. Stopping Short Sellers from accessing your shares will stop a lot of the market turmoil. Wall Street Corruption at some point must stop. Don't wait, call your broker and DEMAND IT, they will be very surprised you are asking them and hesitant to freeze your shares. THEY MUST FREEZE YOUR SHARES ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE A CASH ACCOUNT! DO NOT TAKE NO AS AN ANSWER!!! IF YOU HAVE A MARGIN ACCOUNT AND DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH THE ACCOUNT IS WORTH, IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO LOSE YOU AS A CUSTOMER, THEY WILL FREEZE SHARE LOANING ON YOUR MARGIN ACCOUNT TOO.
