For investors looking to rake in profit from the recent oil rally, here are some companies that are poised to benefit off of higher crude prices. West Texas Intermediate crude futures are surging this week. After Saudi Arabia and Russia pledged to extend voluntary oil supply cuts this year, contracts for WTI crude and Brent settled Tuesday at their highest levels since last November. WTI has leapt during the quarter starting in July, up 24% since then.
Pro used LSEG data to look at the 100-day rolling correlations of Russell 1000 stocks to WTI futures to see which names tend to follow oil the closest. We screened for those names with current correlations of 0.6 or more. In other words, a 1% move on WTI would be associated with a 0.6% gain on the stock. The 10 most positively correlated stocks to oil are energy names, which tend to rise when oil prices get a boost.
