We recently published a list of Energy Stocks that are Losing This Week. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Avista Corporation (NYSE:AVA) stands against other energy stocks that are declining this week.
The energy sector was among the largest beneficiaries of the truce between the United States and China this week, resulting in the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil price rallying aggressively to cross the $63 mark, up from a multi-year low of $57.13 it hit last week. However, despite the gains, oil’s upside potential remains limited due to an abundant supply following a decision by OPEC+ to further increase output in June. Moreover, prices still remain below the $65 break-even mark for most producers operating in the prolific Permian Basin in the US, forcing them to potentially stop drilling and cut jobs.
Additionally, despite Beijing cutting its levies on American goods to 10% for a 90-day period, it is unlikely that the agreement will do much to increase its import of US energy. China’s import of American energy commodities was effectively gone as soon as Beijing put an initial 10% tariff on crude oil and 15% on LNG and coal in early February, so these commodities will remain uncompetitive in the country even at the lower 10% tariff for the next 90 days. According to commodity analysts Kpler, no American crude oil is scheduled to arrive at Chinese ports this month, while only three cargoes were unloaded in April. The imports of American LNG have also suffered a similar fate, with Kpler showing no cargoes since February.
