[dan_s]

Stifel just sent me a detailed report on the Upstream Oil & Gas companies that they follow. Send me an email if you want to read the full report.

Here are the new price targets on the ones in our model portfolios. Keep in mind that Stifel does not cover them all.
Large-Caps
CLR $28
CXO $83 < We are publishing a profile on Concho today.
EOG $87
FANG $106
PE $19
PXD $215
XEC $70 < One of my Top Picks because they have a lot of unhedged gas and NGLs.

Mid-Caps
CPE $18.50
LPI $33.00
MTDR $16.00
PDCE $26.00
SM $4.00
TALO $18.00

They also list DVN and CDEV as two of their Top Picks. They are on my Watch List and Devon is a solid candidate to go back into our Sweet 16.
