Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund
Oil prices rebounded nearly 3% today, influenced by rising tensions in the Middle East and concerns regarding global supply dynamics following Israel's counterattack on Yemen targets. This uptick occurred despite OPEC+'s recent decision to increase production next month, which typically applies downward pressure on prices. The Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLE) reflects this shift with a daily return up 0.72%. Among the fund's holdings, significant contributors included ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, EOG Resources, and Schlumberger. Notably, Chevron was downgraded from Buy to Sell by DZ Bank, with a revised price target of $130. Additionally, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil prices surged by over 4%, reinforcing the strong correlation between oil prices and XLE's performance.
