Predicted for 31. July 2026
·
Based on: Historical Cycle
Chevron reports Q2 2026 results on July 31 (conference call 11:00 ET). Street consensus is ~$5.02/share; UBS raised its estimate to $5.70, citing higher crude prices and improved refining margins. Q2 2026 was characterised by the Iran-driven Brent surge (+14% in the week of July 14 alone, to ~$86/bbl). Oil majors historically beat EPS consensus in high-price quarters ~70% of the time (JP Morgan Commodities, 2018–2025). Upside risk: Permian production surplus. Downside risk: Hormuz tanker logistics only disrupted in late Q2.
