# Weekly Recap | ConocoPhillips +9.25%, closing in on record highs

## The Week

ConocoPhillips (COP) gained 9.25% this week to close at $146.51, against a 1.95% fall in the S&P 500, outperforming the benchmark by roughly 11.2 percentage points. The advance was steady across the week: after opening Monday at $136.01, the stock climbed above $140 by Wednesday, eased to $141.73 on Thursday, then resumed higher on Friday to an intraday high of $146.59.

## Key Events

The week’s narrative centred on crude prices and company-specific strength. On Monday, COP and Chevron were among eight energy stocks receiving A+ profitability grades. Tuesday brought reports of LNG long-term deals and digital initiatives reshaping Q3 strategies for energy and mining names. Wednesday saw COP outperform peers in a strong trading session, and Friday saw headlines noting a record high for the stock, with US energy shares rising as oil topped $100 on supply concerns.

## Analyst Ratings

Across 29 analysts covering the stock, 15 rate it buy, 4 overweight, 9 hold and 1 has no opinion, with no underweight or sell ratings. The consensus rating is buy, with a consensus target of $149.15, around 1.8% above the latest price. Target prices range from $126.00 to $189.00, pointing to wide disagreement. COP ranks fourth among 65 names in the oil and gas exploration and production industry.

## The Week Ahead

Macro data dominates the coming week: the NAHB housing index on Monday, housing starts and building permits on Tuesday, and EIA weekly crude and Cushing inventories on Wednesday. For oil-sensitive names, the EIA print will be a key gauge of near-term supply sentiment. COP’s Q3 2026 results are set for pre-market release on 5 November, with consensus estimates at $2.9124 EPS and $18.1 billion in revenue.

## In Short

COP delivered a sharp outperformance this week as oil rallied and broker ratings stayed constructive, though the wide gap between the lowest and highest target prices reflects genuine disagreement on valuation. Latest-session flows show large and medium orders as net sellers while retail orders were net buyers. The next tests are whether EIA inventory data validates the oil move, and how the early-November earnings reading reshapes full-year expectations.
