Halliburton Company (HAL) experienced a dip in its earnings and overall market performance due to a decrease in oil prices and a slowdown of the economy. Despite a
bull case theory by certain investors, along with its dividend payouts and hint of
resilient International Growth, its Q3 2024 earnings and revenues failed to meet market expectations. The decline in profit and revenue Year over Year (YoY) is evident, leading to the stock underperforming compared to competitors. Simultaneously, analysts at Barclays and Susquehanna have cut
Halliburton's price target to $43.00 and $40.00, respectively. Certain investment groups continue to retain their positions, with even some adding to their stakes in Halliburton, showcasing a belief in its upside potential. A cyberattack disruption against Halliburton stunted its business operations causing stock to fall, eliciting responses from strategic SWOT insights and multi-year contracts with companies such as
Petrobras. Despite the current market lows, Halliburton through being tech-driven and managing to stay on top of its debt, is still favored by institutional investors. However, the recent downslide of its share price is raising questions about the market's understanding of its strong fundamentals.
