- Friday, June 7, 2:53 PM The oil services and equipment analysts at Jefferies see the monumental turning point of the U.S. becoming a net oil exporter as a highly positive catalyst for the stocks they cover. The firm's eight top stocks to buy: BHI, HAL, PSE, CAM, NOV, ATW, RDC, HP. 2 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, May 29, 12:51 PM Russia’s thirst for modern rigs able to drill in shale oil deposits heralds a $9B bonanza for manufacturers including National Oilwell Varco (NOV), Bloomberg reports. More than half of the country's rigs are more than 20 years old, and many aren’t powerful or advanced enough for producers when they begin exploring Siberia’s shale rock, NOV's head of Russian operations says. Comment! [Energy]
- Friday, May 24, 3:13 PM Oil stocks are particularly were well-positioned to take advantage of a stronger H2 economy, Edward Jones' Kate Warne tells CNBC, naming National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and Chevron (CVX) as her top energy picks. Natural gas and oil could see continued strong demand throughout 2013 and beyond, and NOV benefits either way, Warne says; she also likes CVX's "stability" in the oil sector. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Monday, May 20, 11:53 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV) declares $0.26/share quarterly dividend, 100% increase from prior dividend of $0.13. Forward yield 1.51%. For shareholders of record June 14. Payable June 28. Ex-div date June 12. (PR) 2 Comments [Dividends]
- Tuesday, May 7, 10:54 AM Dresser-Rand (DRC +3.8%) is turning into a takeover target for potential buyers such as Siemens (SI), National Oilwell Varco (NOV) and Cameron (CAM), Bloomberg writes. GE’s decision to buy Lufkin this year at the highest multiple to profit on record signaled an appetite for takeovers in the oilfield equipment industry, and DRC could be next on the list as the number of takeout candidates in the space diminishes. 1 Comment [Energy, M&A, On the Move]
- Saturday, May 4, 3:52 PM Barron's is out with its list of the 500 financially strongest companies as ranked after a rigorous cash and sales analysis. A quick filter on the list shows a good chunk of the names trade with a single-digit price to earnings ratio including Goodyear Tire & Rubber (GT). Despite all the buzz about booming auto sales in the U.S. and China, concerns about growth for Goodyear's products in other regions of the globe have lowered expectations. But with auto sale estimates for full-year being taken higher, Goodyear could see enough consistent revenue growth to justify a higher trading multiple. (Top 25: AAPL, WCC, WDC, DVA, CHRW, QCOM, JOY, V, STX, MRC, MA, CVI, COF, SYMC, MCK, WCG, ETN, BRCM, TMO, CI, CBI, NOV, WNR, HFC, DK) 39 Comments [Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, May 3, 11:58 AM The bigger the better when it comes to oil services providers, Jefferies believes, making the case that the big sector players are best positioned to fix inefficiencies of operations and thus ultimately will see the largest benefit from the surge in U.S. production. The firm's favorites: SPN, SLCA, PES, HP, ESV, NOV, CAM, HAL, SLB. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, April 26, 8:13 AM More on National Oilwell Varco's (NOV) Q1 results: EPS and revenues failed to meet consensus estimates, which had already been lowered; NOV cites a softer than expected North American market. Revenue fell sequentially in each of its three segments, with a 9% Q/Q drop in rig technology. Backlog at a record high $12.9B. Shares -3.7% premarket. Comment! [Energy, Earnings, On the Move]
- Friday, April 26, 7:02 AM National Oilwell Varco (NOV): Q1 EPS of $1.29 misses by $0.08. Revenue of $5.31B (+23% Y/Y) misses by $0.07B. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News]

- Wednesday, March 27, 2:48 PM For investors interested in oilfield services companies, Simmons analysts provide their share-price entry points for the sector's top names - SLB, HAL, BHI, WFT, CAM, FTI, NOV - and finds all look fairly valued with 2013 likely to be a murky year. But "most of these names are good solid buys on weakness," the firm says, and that’s where the entry points help. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, March 20, 3:32 PM Drillers are little more than range-bound trading vehicles for now, Dan Dicker says in urging investors to avoid the group. Despite excitement over new U.S. finds, the weak price of natural gas will continue to stifle drilling growth until some price recovery past $3.50/mcf arrives. SLB and others have done a good job squeezing growth from international markets, but a robust U.S. market is key for their stocks to take off. 4 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, March 19, 3:19 PM Despite Schlumberger's near-term concerns, Credit Suisse is convinced the U.S. rig count is going higher and thinks investors should be overweight in U.S.-focused companies leveraged to the rig count or completions. CS likes manufacturers HAL, SPN and FET that supply equipment for drilling and producing the tight reservoirs, plus BHI, WFT, NOV and FTI. 1 Comment [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Friday, March 1, 11:49 AM National-Oilwell Varco (NOV -2.2%) heads south following a downgrade to Sell from Ameriprise Financial. Shares of the drilling equipment maker have had a rough few months, and currently trade at 11x 2013E EPS. 8 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
