Petrobras at Near Depression Prices Graphic_rating_buy PBR

 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...

Despite bearish outlook for the price of crue oil, PetroBras is a play on new discoveries and growth in Brazil.

Petrobras has new discoveries and with the value of the dollar shrinking and the world supply of oil becoming more and more tight over the coming months coupled with the fear that the largest fields are in a steep decline that we will see oil around $200 in a year.  When these things happen PBR will be strong and probably hit around $90.

As they move more oil into production and demand continues to ramp, PBR will make a killing.  Long term price target triple, for the realization of existing explored territories and the likely existence of more finds within the unexplored.

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...

Van Eck Global to Introduce Indian Small Cap Offering
Tradermark
34%
Some great news for investors who can only buy domestic based product; after the successful launch of Van Eck Global Brazil Small Cap [Jun 2, 2009: Market Vectors Brazil Small Cap (BRF) - a New ETF for Exposure to Brazil] earlier this year, a similar product is now slated for India.  I am *very* excited about this as one of my pet peeves has been the lack of mid sized or even smaller type ADRs listed in US markets for either Brazil or India.  You can throw a dart and hit a Chinese small or mid cap, but have to dive under piles of hay looking for Brazilian / Indian needles.

Diamond Offshore: Poised to break-out north

Filed under: Stocks to Buy

Diamond Offshore Drilling's (NYSE: DO) shares are poised to break-out to the upside, hence I'm reiterating my Buy rating on DO, first recommended on June 10, 2009, at a price of $91.63.

<>Diamond Offshore is considered to be better-positioned than other offshore oil/natural gas drillers for 2009-2010, due to a strong backlog of existing contracts, and a significant cash position. Some of that cash could be used to buy newbuild rigs and/or weaker offshore drilling contractors. DO services customers in about 50 countries; a major customer is Petroleo Brasileiro (NYSE: <>P...

Petrobras (PRB) - Still a Sure Thing?
Tradermark
34%
I've often said to people the rate of change in this world is such that there are very few companies outside of the Johnson & Johnson's (JNJ) or Procter & Gamble's (PG) that you can buy and forget about for a decade. And the high(er) growth era for those type of stocks are long gone. One name I touted in 2007, and 2008 as a stock you could buy, go on a 10 year cruise and come back to was Brazilian oil giant Petrobras (PBR). I thought this was the next Exxon (XOM) or in fact better since it's almost like buying a Brazilian version of a Saudi Arabian energy conglomerate.

However, proving m...
