On October 24, the U.S. dollar strengthened against other currencies. Robust economic data showcased the U.S. economy’s strength relative to the United Kingdom and Europe. U.S. business output improved, manufacturing rebounded, and services activity increased while inflationary pressures eased. A rebounding economy means this is the last chance to purchase undervalued companies before they gain traction. Some of those undervalued companies can become the next trillion-dollar companies in 2024.

Chevron Corporation (CVX)

Chevron Corporation (NYSE:CVX) is an American multinational energy company that specializes in gas and oil with activity in more than 180 countries.

CVX’s stock is down by 10% YTD. The analysts covering the stock are offering a 12-month price forecast with a median-high price of $184 to $215. Those forecasts represent a solid upside from the current price level of $155/share.

The energy industry is valued at $26.97 trillion and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.89% by 2028.

Chevron, owing to its significant size, enjoys several competitive advantages. These advantages facilitate a streamlined supply chain and cost-efficiency, ultimately optimizing its capital utilization. The recent conflict between Israel and Palestine is anticipated to cause a rise in gas prices. This development can lead to a proportional increase in oil prices, resulting in higher revenue for Chevron. 

Moreover, the company holds a unique position as one of the first gas companies to operate in Israel, and, at least during the ongoing conflict, it is unlikely to face significant competition in the Israeli market.

Overall, due to the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian crisis, paired with the increasing demand for energy, CVX has the potential to become the next trillion-dollar company in 2024.
