WTI crude oil for May delivery was down 3% to $49.91 Friday afternoon and Brent oil for May delivery was down 2.5% to $57.71 a barrel.

"We rate WEATHERFORD INTL PLC (WFT) a SELL. This is driven by some concerns, which we believe should have a greater impact than any strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the stocks we cover. The company's weaknesses can be seen in multiple areas, such as its deteriorating net income, generally high debt management risk, disappointing return on equity, weak operating cash flow and poor profit margins."
