Poll: Will WTI Hit $85 By The End Of August, 2018 -- May 14, 2018

Against my better judgment, a new poll. One reader has suggested we will see $79.50 by August, 2018.

The poll: will WTI hit $85 by the end of August, 2018?

Start with these nine recommendations from Goldman Sachs, from The Street:

The hot list:

• Align Technology (ALGN) (+22% revenue growth estimate)

• Concho: a huge Mike Filloon favorite (that may be true for Cabot, also, but I forget
• Amazon: a no brainer
• Facebook: agree
