3 Top Oil Stocks to Buy in October
It's been another brutal year for oil and energy. While prices are still up from the big industry meltdown in 2015 and 2016, an initial rally early this year has evaporated as worries over global economic growth have taken center stage. As lower growth -- or even economic contraction -- means less energy is needed, that has spelled bad news for oil and energy producers.
Nevertheless, a handful of companies have been rolling with the punches, and tough times often create a buying opportunity. Here are three oil stocks -- excluding pipeline companies, which you can read up on here -- that are worth a look: Chevron (NYSE: CVX), Occidental Petroleum (NYSE: OXY), and Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX).
