The coronavirus pandemic has taken another turn with the Omicron variant, putting brakes on the sharp economic recovery observed in the third quarter. On November 26, the S&P 500 fell by 2.3% and WTI benchmark dropped to $70/bbl after WHO’s announcement. Consequently, the shares of ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) declined by 5% as demand worries returned. At an annual dividend of $1.84 per share and a stock price of $71, COP’s current dividend yield stands at 2.6%. Thus, the stock remains a good pick for investors looking for economic returns. Amid the new variant scare, the OPEC and non-OPEC nations will meet on December 2 to discuss plans on further easing of production curtailments after the oil consuming countries indicated utilizing reserves to lower surging prices.

So is ConocoPhillips stock likely to decline further in the coming weeks and months or is a recovery looking more likely? Per the Trefis machine learning engine which analyzes historical stock price movements, COP stock has a 50% chance of a rise over the next month (21 trading days).
