Better Buy: ExxonMobil vs. Royal Dutch Shell
In this corner...the largest oil company in the world!
In the opposite corner...also the largest oil company in the world!
Today, it's a clash of the titans of the oil industry. I'm pitting ExxonMobil (NYSE: XOM), the biggest oil and gas company in the world by market cap, against Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS.A)(NYSE: RDS.B), the biggest oil and gas company in the world by revenue. Both are massive companies...and also massive underperformers. Over the last five years, both stocks have lost more than half their value. So let's try to figure out which one is the better buy today.
