Phillips 66 (PSX) continues to dominate the market discussion with its ongoing market performance and strategic maneuvers. Despite a recent 5.2% pullback, long-term shareholders are still up 89%. Analysts have assessed PSX's potential and reportedly found the stock trading at a 22% discount. While Q1 2024 earnings missed the EPS estimates, revenue showed a year-over-year increase. Several reports also suggest that the market's valuation of the stock doesn't align with its strong fundamentals. PSX recently announced the acquisition of all public DCP Midstream Units and plans to increase its dividend, thereby rewarding investors. The company is also said to be eyeing a pipeline stake sale valued at over $1 billion. However, there's debate over PSX's CEO compensation, with some shareholders expressing discontent. The company has also been through an executive leadership transition and announced the resignation of EVP of Midstream and Chemicals, Timothy D. Roberts. Regardless, many institutional investors are reportedly favoring the company, with an approximately 78% stake owned by such entities. As for the RSX's potential, its refining margins are under evaluation as recent data showed a decline which has affected profits. Nonetheless, there's analysis that suggests the company's turnaround is still a work in progress, and the recent rally in the stock suggests robust financials.
