Bond funds have taken some small backward steps in recent weeks, thanks in part to the rising risk of Fed rate hikes instead of rate cuts.
The war with Iran fueled a surge in crude prices, benefiting oil stocks. Exxon is considering a return to Venezuela.
Exxon (XOM) has been one of the stocks most watched by Zacks.com users lately. So, it is worth exploring what lies ahead for the stock.
The first quarter of 2026 marked a sharp shift from the broad-based strength that closed out last year. The S&P 500 finished in negative territory as investors wrestled with a new war in the Middle East, stubborn inflation, shifting interest rate expectations, and uneven earnings across major industries.
Exxon Mobil benefits from geographic and vertical integration. XOM's stock rating shifted from Hold to Strong Buy on the Seeking Alpha Quant System due to the Middle East conflict driving oil prices higher. I see the current price runup as a potential profit-taking opportunity for traders.
President Trump vowed to hit Iran hard and offered no plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. His speech drove up oil prices, which could remain high if the Strait stays closed.
