The negative sentiment on oil stocks is likely to carry on for months. There will be more losers than winners as capital flees from a sector that is showing minimal signs of rebounding. Canadian oil companies are no longer attractive as they were in previous years. Some might even be insolvent before this year is over.
The shares of Birchcliff Energy (TSX:BIR) and Crescent Point Energy (TSX:CPG)(NYSE:CPG) are trading below $4. Their year-to-date losses are 42.8% and 68.5%, respectively. It might come to the point that the prices of these oil stocks will drop to zero in 2021.
