Over on CAPS, 650 of the 676 members who have rated BP Prudhoe Bay -- or 96% -- believe the stock will outperform the S&P 500. These bulls include WilleyNilley and MalibuGuru.
Earlier this month, WilleyNilley brought Prudhoe Bay's outsized yield to our community's attention: "Look for this one to consistently outperform the market. 17% yield at current levels and oil will surely move higher."
In a pitch also from early December, MalibuGuru agrees, highlighting the stock's inherent advantage:
Even If you expect the price of oil to stay between 40-80 $/bl through the next three to five years (highly unlikely) This stock will continue to be solvent, and very likely continue to increase the dividend. This trust also has a huge moat, receiving a premium on the first x million barrels sold from one of the largest, longest producing oil field in North America.
