Furthermore, according to the comprehensive report, the opinions of $Liberty Energy (LBRT.US)$'s main analysts recently are as follows:
Concerns about macroeconomic factors, tempered expectations, and a lack of catalysts are considered to be adequately represented in the current 'discounted valuations' of the energy services sector. Looking ahead, it is suggested that outperformance will likely be influenced by companies with distinctive business models and themes that provide clear earnings visibility in a market characterized by modest growth.
The global oil demand growth appears to be softening, with an abundant supply potentially leading to difficulties in 2025 for oil prices and Oilfield Services stock selection. The prevailing global oil supply/demand scenario necessitates a prompt leveling of U.S. Land oil production, as reflected by an average reduction of 6% in the group's price targets.
