On the filings, APA (APA) is the stronger stock right now — higher on our blended fundamentals-plus-verdict read, and we currently rate it BUY.
Cheap, cash-gushing E&P at 8.3x with 23.5% ROE, $4.5B operating cash flow, deep cost cuts and 60%-of-FCF returns — geopolitics is the catch.
Deleveraging story de-risks the balance sheet, but a now oil-pure OXY with falling earnings and no hedges is a hold, not a chase.
