Jim Cramer Says if Oil Goes Up You’ll Want to Own Chevron
TheStreet's Action Alerts PLUS Portfolio Manager Jim Cramer said despite the profit declines at Exxon (XOM) - Get Report and Chevron (CVX) - Get Report in the first quarter, the companies are doing relatively well. Cramer said, 'What's important is that Exxon took out 33 percent of their capital expenditures and they have a fantastic chemicals division that people haven't been thinking about. The upstream was not good, but the downstream was very, very good. Chevron has had quite a run, so those who want to take profits, totally understandable, but they didn't handle things as well as Exxon.' Cramer said that if oil goes up, Chevron is the one to own.
