Citi analyst Alastair Syme raised the firm’s price target on ConocoPhillips (COP) to $150 from $135 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm believes the Middle East conflict will bring a lowering cost of equity for oil and gas stocks, which results in increased price targets across the board. The war could create “structural re-engagement” of the investment community in the oil and gas sector, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Citi’s top picks are TotalEnergies, ConocoPhillips, and BP.
