COP

SneakerBoiiiiii

im 14, i live in usa, I dont make an income, I want to get financial freedom as an adult and never make money a problem for any thing, and hopefully become a millionaire. Time horizon is a while ill be investing my whole life but id like to be able to withdrawl some money in my 20s but mostly long range, risk tolerance is medium id like to have the boring cash generators warren buffet sytle but id like some small semi risky plays that are calculated correctly, I’ve been interested in stocks for a few months now, and I already know the basics ( credit, interest, ETFs, index funds, head and shoulders pattern, uptrends and downtrends, blue chips, REITs, bonds, gold, etc.). But lately, some people have said that the AI bubble will pop and that having VOO is a risk because the top holdings are heavily concentrated in AI and technology rather than being very diversified. I’m wondering about your takes and also what stocks I should get next. I currently own $689 worth of stocks. (I know it’s very little) I have: 1 share VOO 0.12 Alphabet 1 share SCHD .27 FSELX 0.02 QQQ So yes, I have fractional shares💀 But anyways, I was wondering what to buy. I will be getting around $ 740-840 to invest and was wondering what to do with that money. My parents don’t know much about stocks. They say they do, but they really don’t. My father couldn’t even explain to me how to do simple technical analysis. I’d really like to find a way to make an income, even a small income, so I could put thousands in my account. All of my savings go to my stocks. My top choices right now are Berkshire hathaway b Chevron possibly, exxon mobil is too corrupt Coca cola Nvidia VOO but i want your take on it SPDR SPLG QQQ META but skeptical cause AI UBER People have said oracle but I dont know about this ai bubble stuff And my friend suggests COP Maybe a fidelity fund And I probably should diversify to other sectors like agriculture or oil companies, renewable energy may be a new one

im 14 and in the usa, time horizon is a while like a while I’ve been interested in stocks for a few months now, and I already know the basics (compound interest, ETFs, index funds, head and shoulders pattern, uptrends and downtrends, blue chips, REITs, bonds, gold, etc.).

SomePolack

Pulling out the majority of my positions for SGOV/HYSA  Long PL, RCAT, ONDS, RTX, COP, EUAD, and some secret stocks y’all aren’t ready for 

OSSlayer2153

I bought in to several energy stocks 3-4 weeks ago. Just finally sold COP today after realizing I held too long on other stocks (like RIO)

Sea_Cry_3968

I had COP on a watch list about 2 weeks ago and didn't pull the trigger and regret it now. Probably avoiding it now

Smaxter84

65% at the power station. 15% transmission losses. You need a 2:1 via the COP to break even. Shitty weather when the heat pump is constantly defrosting I don't think you have better than 2:1. I help my heat pump out in shit conditions (~ zero and damp) with direct immersion heating.

opman4

Well, good thing I went all in on COP yesterday.

stackoverflowBoy

I have a noob question.. Is buying COP a good idea to ride the wave of potential increase in oil prices?

After-Question3165

It depends. A lot of companies are pretty extended right now, COP and CNQ for example would be great buys if prices stay elevated but we see a bit of a pullback. The longer prices are elevated the more attractive American producers become, such as AR for example.

Huge-Ad-8210

I sold my 900 shares of COP and 500 shares of CVX. I used to work for OXY years ago. Crap company then. No way I’d put any money into them. This is a great time to sell oil stocks I’ve held for years. Took my gains. I’ll buy back in on the dip.

Chemical-Coconut-203

OXY, COP, TPL. The big petroleum companies had a huge pump. But yeah, I'm going to try to sell all calls expiring within the week.

millerlit

COP has less exposure in middle east.  I am hedging with it.

PoliticsIsDepressing

You better be buying the below stocks: $IPI $XOM $COP $OVV

Sclog

Oh hell yeah that .2 of a share of COP that robinhood gave me 5 years ago is worth $30 now I can eat good tonight

Pleasant_Arugula7571

The historical breakdown: Integrated majors (XOM, CVX, COP) tend to outperform most in sustained + regimes because they benefit across the full value chain and can hedge downstream margin compression. Services names like SLB and HAL typically see backlog acceleration if operators believe prices hold. The less obvious plays: midstream infrastructure like EPD and ET don't move as much on spot price but benefit from volume throughput increases when production ramps. Refiners face a mixed picture since crack spreads can compress even as crude rises if demand gets destroyed faster than supply adjusts. What usually gets forgotten: insurance and shipping rates. War-risk premiums on tankers routed around Hormuz add 3 to 5% to landed cost for Asian buyers. That's a structural Brent-Dubai spread widening that stays even after prices settle.

flying_butt_fucker

Trump is doing more against climate change than 5 COP conferences could achieve! Are we winning yet?

Wowmuchrya

XLE is gona crash lil bro. Oil prices going up don't actually help COP/Chevron/Exxon and the trade is crowded.

Happy-Champion1661

IV was low, I bought the week before their earnings $10 OTM calls XON was trading at 135, CVX 165, COP 98 and so on they were cheap, about 100-150 per contract they are now all ITM LMAO basically when IV is cheap it's always worth it to buy a lot of time (because the cost of it is low and they still print if you are right)

jarMburger

I sold puts for XOM, COP, PSX and VLO on Friday. Rolling some of them out today to 4/17 expiry. Got some good premium

moodring88

on robinhood COP Is up 5,71% in extended hours

Huge-Ad-8210

COP at $122 would be crazy.

Happy-Champion1661

same 100% agree, puts were not the hedge play for this, I got oil as well oil can dump very quickly (as it did last year) so I am dumping monday, but my entry was crazy good from last month got very good price for calls on XOM CVX COP

Level_Counter3062

Tickers to prop up SPY on Monday ExxonMobil (XOM) Chevron (CVX) ConocoPhillips (COP) Occidental Petroleum (OXY) Schlumberger (SLB)

Alone-Supermarket-98

crude prices are down about -2.5% over the past year, not exactly runaway pricing. While a few companies like CVX trade at 28x, most trade more cheaply, like XOM 22x, COP 17.8x, EOG13.6x, PSX 14.3x. Also the integrateds are better balanced, benifitting in their downstream operations from lower prices. And if Orville knew how aweful the airline business would become, he would have shot Wilbur out of the air on his first flight.

sdanielsmith

I make good money on COP, XOM, and CVX.

Bogeem1

Same here, CAT in 2011 also PSX when it spin off from COP, free shares of PSX, 1 free share for every 2 shares of COP held ! We like FREE, and divendends compounded....i received a letter from CAT several years ago they wanted to purchase my shares back from me...I got to thinking why so i thought something was up and told them NO, for once I lucked out by not selling my shares so today im thinking they soon will have to do a split to make their shares more affordable for the average investor besides CAT hasn't done a split for decades

One_Kiwi6616

Nha Bros get on my level, when I was a kid  50.000 COP or 2.500 for a Cola bottle for a good piece of meat  and it seems nowadays there is a 100.000 bill, the cola prolly costs like 10.000 today

pmotiveforce

I'm simple, COP and CVX maybe OXY. Probably someone smarter picks shit based on who profits most specifically from this situation.

Carfar_Farcar

I mean oil is going because *gestures at the Middle East* so maybe a short term play on XOM or COP.

Carfar_Farcar

Thought about it but with with a few companies instead. XOM, SLB, WMB, COP, and some XLE because it's cheap.

sdanielsmith

Calls on oil companies tomorrow. XOM, CVX, COP, etc. Even though the market will have a glut of oil at some point this year, right now Iran and Venezuela are keeping the market elevated. Also, probably one on NVDA and one on AAPL because I like to gamble away the gains on my oil stocks.

MaxxMavv

Cool now I know its time to sell/trim my COP shares.

thugtronic

That's XOM leading look at CVX, COP, VLO on max monthly charts

pink_ego_box

Global66 account, 6% on USD, 11% on Colombian peso, and the COP gained 20% on the USD last year.

SpoopleDuck

February usually is a unique trading month. Especially after all Q4 earnings and them prepping Q1 results. AI, anything digital is about to pop. Everything’s over valued and they’re gonna run out of actual physical money funding AI. I’ve been focusing on Energy/Oil especially with how global tensions are and history shows whenever something’s about to move it needs oil. I’m like 95% sure tickers like — CVX, XOM, COP, XLE are going to react next week bullish.

sdanielsmith

Just took a 48% gain on my NVDA call. 26% on COP. Time to walk away from the casino.

KaotikRush0198

NOC, LHX, RTX, KTOS, COP, OXY, maybe GLD. Unsure about silver. Just look into defense and oil and i think you'll be alright, though might want to keep an eye out for the news cause 🥭 is prolly gonna do something stupid before talks on Friday.

pink_ego_box

Colombian peso vs USD +18% 1y We're talking about a country where the smallest bill is 2.000 COP

Direct-Protection-81

4COP invest in the miners who control thee supply of copper. I think this is where the money will be, hope to see you on the other side.

Direct-Protection-81

4COP for copper ETF for supply and demand current supply is 22million tonnes and expected demand is 30million tonnes, get in early while we watch the world wide copper supply make us very happy investors.

London_man007

> I’m less focused on picking the “perfect” names and more on catching rotation when it actually shows up on the chart. Energy and materials make sense macro wise, but timing matters or you just sit in dead money. I usually track names like XLE, XOM, CVX, COP, and materials like FCX and XLB, then wait for structure to flip instead of front running the thesis. I use RevCan.io on TradingView to spot when momentum and higher timeframe bias actually turn bullish so I can play calls instead of guessing bottoms. Let price confirm the story first, the money follows after.

pmotiveforce

I'm holding COP calls up 79% that expire Mar20. I'm holding. I think shit goes hot with Iran and the Venezuela shit means nothing and oil spikes. I would sell around 500%, or I ride and die.

Anchises1

Dollar is getting annihilated against COP right now and that's fucking me off

Ok-Extent9254

I feel like just a bit of context is important here: XOM and COP have zero exposure to Venezuela, VLO and PSX only buy it for their refineries, but they can easily switch to Canadian and Mexican heavy sour. CVX is the only one who is actually producing in Venezuela, but it is <5% of their worldwide production. In general, the US oil industry gives about a tiny fraction of a fuck about Venezuela.

joe4942

It's true that restarting oil production in Venezuela would cost a lot of money, but people also seem to forget how much money oil companies make. Income: * XOM: $29B * CVX: $12B * COP: $8B Versus: * AVGO: $23B * TSLA: $5B

J_Tuld

Loaded up on COP puts. God save me. 🙏

pmotiveforce

Oil. I got my COP and OXY calls already up.

pmotiveforce

I seem to buy random shit and sometimes get surprised I have it. Apparently I have COP 95C Mar20 that are up 75% today for some reason. Fugue state me is some kind of savant.

salty0waldo

Interesting. I mean, CVX is already operating in some capacity down there. But in the near-term, not really sure why any other players would want to invest heavily given the overall demand backdrop. XOM and COP may want to take some stake in the reserves just to add to their overall capacity, but I wouldn't be surprised if they hold off on committing any large capital investments. Just a weird situation at the moment lol.

salty0waldo

Some of the moves don't make sense. Like, I don't think COP or XOM are going to enter or really commit to anything in a meaningful way. But like, CVX already has assets there so they likely will be reclaiming those. Then a few service companies will benefit from the increased CAPEX like HAL and SLB. The CAPEX need is pretty massive from what the reports mention on the overall infrastructure.

Rude_Judgment7928

Break-even on marginal opex, or marginal opex+capex? If only the former, this is useless, COP, the company burned by Venezuela hasn't even decided **if** they want to re-enter the market. If the marginal capex to get production back to 3MM BBL/d in Venezuela is too high, no new production is going to come on line.

EyeSea7923

I love this corrupt media trying to push bearish sentiment on COP, so there can be better positions lol

mintz41

Play the momentum around the news (although this has already largely happened, COP is up 10% PM) but I doubt Exxon and Conoco go back in.

COP, HAL, CVX, etc. There’s a pretty good write up here: https://altindex.com/news/stocks-to-watch-us-run-venezuela

kegman83

> Lots of people are talking about oil companies and oil infrastructure companies like CVX, XOM, COP and HAL. Absolutely none of these companies are getting into the country any time soon. Maduro's party is still in power, and the opposition parties of the country hate each other too much to banned together to form a coherent government. > How do you think this will be paid for? They wont. Venezuela was already in a precarious position before this happened, and was barely getting itself out of a self-induced famine. It doesnt produce anything but oil and the oil infrastructure was increasingly decrepit to begin with, and its not something you can just turn on and off. And all of these assets are still owned by Citgo who last I checked is still in US bankruptcy court and wont be leaving any time soon. That means all that infrastructure doesnt get touched by a US company for the foreseeable future.

Appropriate_Golf5438

The capture of Nicolás Maduro and the subsequent U.S. intervention in Venezuela have unlocked the world's largest oil reserves, potentially increasing accessible supply 9-fold. To capitalize on this historic shift, focus on these picks: - Chevron (CVX): The primary beneficiary with the strongest existing footprint in Venezuela. - SLB & Baker Hughes (BKR): Critical for the multi-billion dollar rehabilitation of broken oil infrastructure. - ConocoPhillips (COP): Positioned to finally recover $8.7 billion in seized assets. XLE ETF: Best for broad exposure to the surging U.S. energy sector.

ronk55

COP or XOM. BUY oil stocks asap

tbarnette70

u/trbodeez DAMMIT! I just made a profit on long calls for COP and cashed out.. lol.. I did see the premiums. I was thinking there would be a short term surge (like Monday) on CVX. I went through the call spikes and they've been going on for a week. This one missed my screener. I hand wrote a screener that crawls OPRA feed looking for surges, nightly. I wonder how people are finding it faster than that... Insider information seems unlikely.. I mean Pelosi isn't there yet.. lol..

Chitown_mountain_boy

COP is owed billions by Venezuela. They may benefit quicker than you think. (Disclaimer: long term CVX holder)

Arquit3d

XOM, CVX, COP, VLO, MPC, PSX, OXY, OVV Pick 3

Any_Improvement9815

Chevron (CVX) is the only major still working in Venezuela, Exxon (XOM) & ConocoPhillips (COP) have huge arbitration awards on the books but no direct presence in Venezuela. My money is on the downstream guys like Valero (VLO) who can refine Venezuela’s heavy sour crude and the services companies like SLB & Baker Hughes (BKR).

Hot-Celebration5855

SLB. Their tech and expertise will be needed to restore those fields. Chevron: the only incumbent producer. COP: May get their fields back that Chavez seized Valero: cheaper feedstock

Electrical_Crew7195

Not even a coup in a opec country can make my COP investment back into the green

XOM CVX MPC COP calls

Perfect_Proof810909

So... XOM, CVX, COP calls?

bevo_expat

Oil sector already started going brrrrrrrr on Friday. All oil majors went up about 2% (XOM, CVX, RDS, COP)…someone knew something was going down

2Frum4U

I hope y’all have COP and CVX calls

Hot-Celebration5855

Markets won’t change much. VZ accounts for less than 1% of global oil production. Medium term Valero, SLB, Chevron and COP will benefit

Hot-Celebration5855

Also Valero (better crack spreads, SLB (for oil field services), and COP (they had their oil fields seized and sued Venezuela - maybe they get them back now

ComprehensiveKiwi489

Big ups to the next President of Colombia, Chevron / COP / XOM

Sufficient-Curve-853

My take is with the AI build out it is gonna be all sources welcome for many years. Trying to pick companies all throughout the energy spectrum. I think maybe under the radar are some of the pipeline plays that while oil prices are relatively down still generate a lot of cash. Seems like there is space for a "Future Energy" ETF which could include XOM, CVX, or COP but also renewables, nuclear, battery storage, utilities and infrastructure - sort of the best of IFRA, FUTY, FIDU, CTEC, ICLN and EINC.

KalBux

My portfolio is ridiculous. SBUX calls, INTC calls, RTX, LHX, JPM, C, XOM, COP. What is this? The fucking 90’s?

Hot-Service-568

I like this play. Was looking at COP awhile ago. Have some WCP.TO

Hot-Celebration5855

To me the companies that will benefit from a coup and a more friendly US regime are: Near term: oil equipment companies like SLB, Baker Hughes, Haliburton. Also maybe COP as they could recover their assets that Venezuela seized. And maybe chevron who is the only incumbent and could expand production of their fields aren’t smashed in a war Longer term. Refineries like Valero, who is the largest sour crude refiner in America. Venezuelan oil gives it more feedstock supply. This presumes the coup is successful and there isn’t an insurgency afterwards. Which is a big if

kazkeb

I have a vert spread on USO. Other ETFs are UCO and GUSH. You can also use stocks of companies like XOM, MRO, CVX, and COP.

Biscuit_Eater2591

I'm in long on COP if that helps

2Frum4U

COP pretty much confirming something is about to happen in Venezuela

OneSuch4941

sometimes you win holding boomer shit like COP.

Sanpaku

Only 2 of the Mag 7 were market leaders in 2010, only 1 in 2000, and all were negligible in 1990 and earlier. Leadership rotates. History hasn't stopped. Right now, it assumes a tech-led consumer cornucopia will last indefinitely. At a time when users of all their services recognize 'enshittification' has set in.\* We could have $150/bbl oil in 2030, and little discretionary income for tech status tokens. Then it'll be Saudi Aramco, XOM, CVX, PetroChina, Shell, COP..., and the current Mag7 stuck with depreciation from their data center malinvestments. \* Some consumer relationships, like OS or social network are stickier than past ones like mobile phone network or car brand preference. But as most sites become worse with every passing year, there will be more consumers like me. From the Mag 7, I've had zero engagement with TSLA products, left all META platforms in 2017, am content with a 9 year old iPhone (purchased used), 6 year old MSFT OS license and 6 year old NVDA GPU, avoid AMZN shopping when possible, and pay GOOGL $15 a year for storage. Meanwhile I use DuckDuckGo for search and LibreOffice for documents, while ad-blocking everywhere. They're not trillion dollar companies on account of consumers like me. Few non-US nations are happy with US social media sites, and I think we'll see some local-protectionism/mercantilism there. 47 gave them licence. TSLA is is a 150 B car company with $1350 B of empty promises. Even if LLM logorrhea is more than a fad, NVDA is screwed if alternatives like Trainium and Ironwood prove more efficient than GPUs. I think MSFTs lock on PC OS and APPLs lock on prestige mobile OS are a bit stronger, but as hardware asymptotically approaches physical limits, were going to see longer upgrade cycles. *All* of these can fall out of the top ten.

#ARE YOU A COP?

pink_ego_box

In Colombia. With 5% inflation that's 6% real. But the COP grew 30% against the USD this year

pink_ego_box

It's in Colombian pesos. 5% inflation but the COP took 30% against the USD this year

No_Abalone8812

lol wrong… you’re taking the unadjusted price for SG&A of Super Major Oil companies like $OXY and $COP - the breakeven price for a smaller connoted producer like Vision is closer to $28 / barrel… in fact at times like this it’s a great time to buy oil wells for cheap and drive up production. Learn their model. The price you’re quoting is far more relevant to drilling a brand new well, that’s not what this is company is doing currently. And this company doesn’t own or hasn’t bought any brand new rigs. It is buying rig companies that come with revenue and with assets that are already paid off. Do some DD.

ai___________

Here are 16 things that are happening now in the world: 1. The COP30 climate summit is underway in Belém, Brazil, where a fire broke out in the Blue Zone of the conference centre, forcing evacuations during key climate negotiations.  2. Scientists at COP30 warn that current emissions pledges will lead to a ~2 °C global temperature rise, calling it a “death sentence” for many.  3. The phase-out of fossil fuels is a major contention: over 80 nations support a roadmap, but major producer states are resisting.  4. The U.S. federal government recently ended its longest shutdown in history and now must address the lingering economic and market impacts.  5. Global economic indicators are showing weakness: for example, China’s economy is showing signs of slowing, with weaker retail spending and industrial production.  6. Inflation worries globally are falling while concerns about unemployment and extremism are rising, according to a multi-country survey.  7. In agriculture, more than 60% of new farming innovations in 2025 are focused on regenerative and sustainable practices such as carbon farming, circular economy models, and diversified cropping.  8. The ongoing regional conflict in the Middle East (the Middle Eastern crisis (2023–present)) continues to have cascading effects on global trade, shipping (Red Sea), and regional stability.  9. There is a strong push for more climate finance, especially grant-based funding to help developing countries adapt and transition.  10. Public optimism in several countries is at historic lows: for example, in France only 8% say their country is heading in the “right direction.”  11. The debate over the role of artificial intelligence—both in driving future economic growth and in posing financial market risks—is intensifying.  12. Many companies and sectors are accelerating their sustainability strategies—agriculture being one—but also manufacturing and supply-chain redesigns to meet environmental goals.  13. The U.S. dollar is benefiting from global uncertainty and “carry-trade” dynamics, especially with some other economies slowing.  14. There is amplified media attention on extremism, online radicalization, and the role of social platforms in spreading hate content globally.  15. The shipping lanes in the Red Sea continue to be under pressure due to militant attacks by the Houthis, affecting global supply chains — leading some ships to route around Africa instead of through the Suez Canal.  16. Major policy discussions are underway across the world about how to finance and implement the “just transition” from fossil fuels — balancing climate goals with equity and economic impact. 

Thebaxxxx

Terrif rhymes whith Sherrif. Calls on $COP

Full-Passage4412

what do you think could mirror this trade in the stock market? USO? XLE? XOP? Or am I better off with individual oil stocks like COP, XOM, CVX?

Ok_Cry7572

Prince William and Keir Starmer flying in a taxpayer funded private jet to COP30 in Brazil to tell all us plebs how to save the planet.😂😂

Sufficient-Curve-853

Yeah just setup all sectors a couple individual stocks for tax-loss harvesting large, mid, small cap so it doesn't really matter long term if some go down - but COP kinda surprised me as a pretty healthy company, making money but stock just keeps going down even after today's earnings beat. I also own XOM.

Few-Chemist-3463

COP has traded like shit ever since they bought out MRO, also Oil prices being lower explains the underperformance.

notreallydeep

BP struggled *against* the rest. COP struggled *with* the rest. Almost every US oil producer is down YTD and there is one variable that connects them all (please don't even think of mentioning refiners as a counterpoint, you already mentioned the crack spread while COP doesn't refine shit). You can ignore the obvious if you want. That's my last comment on this as it's entirely pointless.

notreallydeep

I'm not talking about earnings day performance. I answered this: >Why has COP struggled so much in the past year?

Sufficient-Curve-853

Fair point, but in the past month XOM and CVX are flat vs. COP down 8% - that is the part I don't understand.
