Chevron CVX
Chevron is one of the world's largest integrated oil companies, engaged in the exploration, production, refining, and marketing of oil and natural gas, with operations in more than 180 countries. Chevron presents solid financial health (ND/EBITDA of 0.56) and spectacular growth (earnings +321.9%), but the latter is clearly cyclical and unsustainable. Valuation is reasonable (EV/EBITDA 8.59) and the dividend is well covered, although the P/E of 19.68 already discounts part of the bullish cycle.

Context and risks
Chevron, as an integrated producer, benefits from high oil due to the WTI rise to $95, but its West Coast US refining business and exposure to global shipping routes add geopolitical risk from the Hormuz blockade. The asymmetry of a potential deal that sinks oil is a real risk to the sustainability of its current margins.

Verdict: Hold. The balance sheet is strong and the dividend attractive, but current growth is at its peak and the geopolitical risk of an oil price drop is significant.
Main risk: The main risk is a cyclical reversal: if the geopolitical premium from Hormuz deflates, oil could fall sharply, compressing refining margins and earnings growth, which are currently at highs.
