Energy Outlook: XOM, CVX Poised for 4th of July Demand Surge

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.
