Murphy Oil Corp (MUR)

CAPS Rating:
*****

An oil and gas exploration and production company with refining and marketing operations in North America and the United Kingdom.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

A great stock. Almost a steal in this day and age. Oil is here to stay, until production get underway. It takes approxilately 10 years for oil production to begin.

Oil related stocks are fixing to take a bath. The oil bubble I believe has finally reached it's bursting point. Profits will decline as will the price. The world economies can not sustain the current prices.

As long as a hurricane does not directly impact the company's bottom line this summer/fall, the company is poised for continued growth near term. "Twilight in the Desert" was on the mark regarding the dwindling supply of oil in the world. Murphy can expect improved profits.
