- Halliburton has rallied 29% since October.
- We think the recovery has just begun and are increasing our position strategically on dips.
- Halliburton will benefit from increased demand from an improving economy in 2021 and investors with a moderate risk profile should consider them near current levels.
Introduction
Halliburton (HAL) has been making new highs along with all other oil and gas firms this month Recent trends and data suggest that a bottom was made in Q-3, and the company is set to experience increased revenues and margins in Q-4.

The company is one of the mainstay companies of the oil and gas E&P infrastructure and has the cash reserves and liquidity to go the distance.

The catalyst for growth is a rebound in fracking as DUC’s are put into service, and to an extent increased drilling as rigs go back to work domestically and especially internationally as it now accounts for the majority of revenue. What’s clear is the industry collectively has “heaved” a sigh since May and essentially ratified the $40 WTI level as being viable.
