Dryden Pence discusses the energy landscape ahead of the 4th of July holiday weekend. With tensions in the Middle East easing and OPEC's spare capacity at 5 million barrels a day, Pence believes the risk premium on crude oil has been largely priced in. While he expects a short-term demand spike due to increased travel, Pence doesn't see any major supply disruptions on the horizon. From a sector standpoint, he favors integrated energy companies like ExxonMobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX), citing their diversified business models, strong downstream margins, and attractive dividend yields.
