Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Diamondback Energy stock: 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Diamondback Energy focuses on growth through a combination of acquisitions & active drilling in the lucrative Permian Basin. Diamondback's twin acquisitions of Energen Corporation and Ajax Resources, totaling more than $10 billion are expected to further strengthen its Permian position & growth prospects along with offering the firm with synergy benefits. The company also unveiled a $2 billion buyback scheme through year-end 2020 that shows its ability to generate decent levels of free cash flows. However, apart from the widespread flaring and pipeline constraints, natural gas prices have been extremely weak in the Permian, thereby denting Diamondback earnings. It has lost 16.6% over the six months, underperforming its industry, which has decreased 10.8% over the same period. Hence, it warrants a cautious stance at the moment." (1/27/2020) 2. Northland Securities analysts commented, "We think FANG had a solid print. 2Q19 exceeded our expectations (but lagged consensus), while it narrowed guidance generally around the midpoints, began to show progress on its share buyback and guided to 2H19 oil realizations that are significantly improved from recent quarters."
