PBR: Bull or Bear?
Petrobras shares continue to ascend
PBR

in
15 hours
Filed under: Stocks to Buy, Petroleo Brasileiro (PBR)  It goes without saying that the investment strategy advocated here favors integrated oil companies, particularly those with a regional or product advantage. And with the aforementioned in mind, I'm reiterating my buy rating for Petroleo Brasileiro SA (PBR), also known as Petrobras, first recommended on April 22, 2009, at a price of $32.99. If you bought PBR in April, you're up an impressive 47%.
<>Petrobras remains on-track for 5% to 6% oil/natural gas production growth for FY2009 or about 2.54 million barrels of oil equivalent per day; long...

Filed under: Stocks to Buy  It goes without saying that one of the sectors preferred in this space is the integrated oil sector, and when one can combine a demonstrated business model with a dominant market position, that's the equivalent of a baseball doubleheader, which is why Brazil-based Petroleo Brasileiro SA (NYSE: PBR), also known as Petrobras, is worth a review.
In general, analysts expect Petrobras' oil and gas production to increase about 2% in 2009. The company has proved reserves of 11.7 billion barrels of oil equivalent, 14,200 wells, and 5,970 gas stations.<><>Continue reading <>Consid...

Petrobras Brazil is an interesting play in the energy sector. The current global recession fear has helped to beat the stock down from the $70's last year to a current price of about $27.00.
While serving a rapidly growing domestic market in 2008, Petrobras exported a record volume of 673,000 barrels per day of oil and derivatives, 9.4% more than in 2007 and topping-out with a volumetric surplus of 103,000 barrels per day. Total exports amounted to $21.245 billion, 42.7% above a year earlier.
The vision for Petrobras Vision by 2020 is to be one of the five largest integrated...

Filed under: International markets, Brazil, Newsletters, Commodities, Oil, Stocks to Buy "Crude oil remains deeply oversold on an intermediate-term basis, suggesting a rally sometime in the early fall," says Dennis Slothower. The editor of Stealth Stocks looks to Petroleo Brasileiro SA (NYSE: PBR) as his latest "stock of the month." Here's his review of the Brazilian firm that is now the world's 8th-largest oil company. "The founding of Petrobras was authorized in October 1953, with the objective of executing, on behalf of the federal government, the activities of the oil sector in Brazil. <>"Ove...

Petrobras: Buy and Sit Tight Like Soros
PBR
-0.89%
in
445 days
<>As reported at Bloomberg.com, George Soros purchased an $811 million stake in Petroleo Brasileiro SA (PBR), (better known as Petrobras) in Q2. The Brazilian oil company is now the largest holding in his fund, amounting to 22 percent of the total $3.68 billion of stocks and American depositary receipts held by Soros Fund Management LLC. Of course, crude oil has taken a dive in the last month, helping to push Petrobras down 28 percent since his purchase and costing Soros $235 million. I guess we would all like to be in a position to lose nearly a quarter billion dollars and still be "OK". The...

Petroleo Brasileiro: Profit from those rising prices at the gas pump
PBR
-50.50%
in
300 days
(closed on 04/23/09)
Filed under: Brazil, Stocks to Buy Readers of this space know that one argument I forward here is that in the era of elevated energy prices, oil/natural gas companies are likely to remain promising plays for the foreseeable future, barring the discovery of a cheap, widely-available, alternative energy. And among oil/natural gas companies, Petroleo Brasileiro is worth a review.
Petroleo Brasileiro SA Petrobras (NYSE: PBR) is Brazil's largest industrial operation, with oil/gas production, refining and purchasing businesses, and oil/gas transport services.

Ken Heebner of CGM Funds was on CNBC again this morning, and again focused on Petrobras (PBR) which we are now both saying has a chance to become the largest company (by market capitalization) in the world. Once again sugar cane ethanol gives much more bang for the buck than lousy corn ethanol, so the export market for this product should be substantial. (note the US has very high tariffs on imported ethanol to PROTECT the corn ethanol business - another in countless bright ideas coming from D.C.)

Petrobras has many new discoveries in the pipeline near its Tupi discovery. Oil will continue to rise thanks to Chinese consumption and the commodity will only be worth more. I am bullish on Petrobras because I think it will eventually become the second largest oil company in the world behind Saudi Aramco.

I bought PBR at $67.70 on today's weakness (-5.12% drop). Oil stocks got hammered as oil fell into the $124's.
Oil will probably still correct, but look at the overall trend. In 1980, China consumed 1.694 mb/d (2.7%); in 2006 it consumed 7.445 mb/d or 8.9%. In 1980, India consumed 0.643 mb/d or 1.0% of the world's total; in 2006 it consumed 2.575 mb/d or 3.1% of the world's total. Currently existing fields worldwide are declining by 4.5% per year. This means each year the world has to bring on line the equivalent of another Nigeria plus another Indonesia, just to keep production flat.
