CVX over $200 by EOY?
Given the high level of one-team behavior demonstrated by Chevron HR it’s only inevitable that our our stock price is about to skyrocket. The only question is how high?
CVX back under $100 by EOY?
CVX trading at $60 during the pandemic was unreasonable, but it is also irrational to pay more that $100 a share given Chevron’s annual gross profits. As the economy slows I expect Chevron to drop to a more reasonable valuation (maybe $70-90 per... — read more

It’s about the prosecution, stupid
