Reuters Reported BP Seeks Buyers For US Natural Gas Pipeline System Stake

President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s move to impose 25% tariffs on Canada can thwart the growth of the stock markets and affect corporate profits, inflation, transportation and oil marketing companies.
What Happened: This comes as Goldman Sachs head of commodities research, Daan Struyven told <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-27/goldman-sees-significant-hit-to-us-from-trump-s-canada-tariffs">Bloomberg </a>that &#8220;The 25% levy on all products from Canada proposed by Trump would likely raise the price of fuels in the U.S.&#8221;
&#8220;He said that tariffs could significantly affect U.S. consumers, U.S. refiners, and Canadian producers," on Wednesday. In order for American producers to export more of their own oil, the U.S. imports almost 4 million barrels of Canadian crude a day. Struyven added that this could be a &#8220;negotiating tool.&#8221;
"Given the focus from Trump to lower energy costs, we think Canada tariffs are somewhat unlikely,&#8221; he added
U.S. and Canada along with Mexico signed the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement as an update to North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA in 2020. It allowed for mostly duty-free trade between the three countries. Trump&#8217;s threat of tariffs would seem to violate the terms.

Why It Matters: As higher Canadian tariffs could raise the domestic fuel prices in the U.S., it will impact the corporate profits of many companies and increase both, consumer and producer price inflation.
The input costs of transportation and oil marketing companies can increase, which may lower their profits and stock prices. Also, investors may want to short the stocks of these companies when oil prices are high.
A few of the many transportation companies that would get affected by this include, Union Pacific Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNP#NYSE">UNP</a>), CSX Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSX#NASDAQ">CSX</a>), Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), Old Dominion Freight Line Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ODFL#NASDAQ">ODFL</a>), TFI International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TFII#NYSE">TFII</a>), Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KNX#NYSE">KNX</a>), XPO Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPO#NYSE">XPO</a>) and Alaska Air Group, Inc.

Palantir Price Target Raised To $75 By Dan Ives Amid 288% YTD Surge: Analyst Calls 2025 A 'Primetime' Year For AI

FANG

Shares of energy and oil stocks are trading higher amid a rise in the price of oil, which gained on Russia-Ukraine tensions and a Norway oilfield shutdown.

Corteva Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTVA#NYSE">CTVA</a>) announced today a collaboration with bp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>, LSE: BP.L))) on the companies' shared intent to form a crop-based biofuel feedstock joint venture (JV).
The JV envisaged by Corteva and bp would produce and deliver crop-based biofuel feedstocks to help meet the anticipated growth in demand for 'sustainable aviation fuel' (SAF).
A number of countries around the world have, or are in the process of implementing, mandates or tax incentives to promote the decarbonization of the aviation sector. In the EU a SAF mandate begins in 2025 that will require fuel uplift at EU airports to contain at least 20% SAF by 2035 and 70% by 2050.
To help meet this demand, Corteva and bp have executed a non-binding memorandum of understanding, with the intent of forming a JV that would aim to progressively scale up volume, reaching delivery&nbsp;of one million metric tons per year of biofuel feedstocks for SAF production by the mid-2030s.
Corteva plans to contract with farmers in North and South America, and Europe, to grow proprietary Corteva mustard seed, sunflower and canola feedstocks well-suited for SAF production. These crops are integral to large scale agriculture around the world. The JV would aim to introduce new cropping systems to produce oil that meets EU RED III criteria, and qualifies for US Low Carbon Intensity policy incentives, while creating a new revenue stream for farmers.

Jim Cramer Says He Can't Recommend This Major Automaker, Ceva Is 'Way Too High'

Analysts cut the price target on BP p.l.c. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BP#NYSE">BP</a>) following the company&#8217;s third quarter results reported on Tuesday.
BP&#8217;s revenue fell short at $47.25 billion, below the $52.56 billion consensus, with oil production down <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41598840/bp-stock-drops-as-q3-revenue-misses-mark-production-declines-debt-rises" rel="noreferrer noopener">6% year over year</a>.
For FY24, BP&nbsp;continues to expect&nbsp;both reported and underlying upstream production to be&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">slightly higher than the prior year</a>.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, the company continues to expect $25 billion&nbsp;of divestments and other proceeds from the second half of 2020 through 2025.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Biraj Borkhataria lowered the price target to 480p (from 525p) while reiterating the Sector Perform rating.
The analyst writes that BP faced significant challenges lately, and without an improving macroeconomic environment, they believe the investment case remains weak.
The company appears to have missed an opportunity in 2022-23, a peak period in the cycle, to significantly reduce its leverage, adds the analyst.
Borkhataria says that this oversight has left its distribution program less resilient compared to its peers.
The analyst observed a stronger focus on the balance sheet this quarter compared to previous periods, with net debt increasing from $33.3 billion to $35.3 billion (including leases).
Borkhataria expects this figure to rise to approximately $40 billion by the end of the year.
The analyst says that BP requires a reset of expectations ahead of its February 2025 Capital Markets Day (CMD).
Adjusting the &#8216;surplus&#8217; payout ratio seems prudent, and the analyst believes it would be wise to allocate more cash towards strengthening the balance sheet.
Given the lackluster returns in recent years, Borkhataria thinks that prioritizing de-leveraging over growth capital expenditures in the transition engines should be the focus.
The analyst&#8217;s revised EPS estimates reflect a decrease of 6% for 2024 and 10% for 2025, primarily due to lower refining earnings, partially balanced by increased contributions from gas and low-carbon initiatives.
Goldman Sachs analyst Michele Della Vigna reduced the price target to 560p from 580p while reaffirming the Buy rating. Also, the analyst reduced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BP/analyst-ratings">ADR price target to $44.0 from $46.0.</a>
The analyst anticipates lower oil and gas price realizations than expected, particularly for European gas, which may result in diminished earnings and cash flow generation.
Additionally, lower-than-expected recovery rates in mature offshore oil and gas fields could lead to higher decline rates than currently projected, ultimately resulting in lower production growth and cash flow than their current estimates, adds the analyst.
Vigna adjusted the estimates, resulting in EPS changes of approximately -2%, -7%, and -5% for 2024, 2025, and 2026, respectively, primarily due to lower refining margins and reduced oil trading profits.
Price Action: BP shares are down 0.66% at $29.17 at the last check Wednesday.

It will provide the necessary artificial lift to optimize production by enhancing reserve recovery while minimizing energy consumption.
