Imperial Oil shares came under pressure after RBC Capital argued that the stock’s strong recent run no longer lines up with the company’s fundamentals. The bank also highlighted that it now sees more attractive return prospects in other energy names across the sector.
Reflecting this more cautious view, RBC Capital cut its rating on Imperial Oil to Underperform from Sector Perform. The firm, however, maintained its price target at C$116, signaling limited upside from current levels despite the downgrade.
