Oil may have spiked on Middle East tensions, but JPMorgan is keeping its cool — and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/oil">its crude forecast</a> in check. 
In its latest note, the firm reiterates a base case for Brent in the low-to-mid $60s through 2025 and flat at $60 in 2026, brushing aside geopolitical fears as largely priced in.
In fact, JPM pegs Brent&#8217;s fair value at $66, suggesting the commodity sports a $10/bbl geopolitical premium when tensions escalate.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why JPMorgan Isn't Buying The Oil Rally</h2>
JPMorgan has three reasons to stay calm:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>First, an all-out attack on Iran could push oil to $120 and U.S. inflation to 5% &#8211; but the bank sees just a 7% chance of that happening.</li>
<li>Second, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz &#8211; though a nightmare scenario for oil &#8211; would be economic self-sabotage for Iran, which sells most of its crude to China.</li>
<li>Third, the Gulf nations simply can't afford a war right now; economic diversification plans like Saudi's Vision 2030 require peace, not petroleum-fueled chaos.</li>
</ul>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3 Energy Stock Picks With Good Upside</h2>
But for stock pickers, here's where it gets interesting: JPMorgan analysts also ran an $80 WTI upside case to identify E&amp;Ps with the most leverage to higher oil—and the results are eye-popping.
Leading the charge?
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Civitas Resources Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CIVI#NYSE">CIVI</a>): 35% upside to $45</li>
<li>SM Energy Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SM#NYSE">SM</a>): 24% upside to $35</li>
<li>Talos Energy Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TALO#NYSE">TALO</a>): 18% upside to $11</li>
</ul>
These aren't just headline-grabbing gains. In the $80 WTI scenario, these names are expected to post industry-leading FCF-to-enterprise value yields — with Talos hitting 40.7%, SM at 37.1%, and Civitas at 31.2% in 2027, per JPMorgan&#8217;s estimates.
Even with muted oil outlook, these companies stand out for their capital efficiency and torque to price moves. If oil does break higher — or simply stays more resilient than feared &#8211; these small-to-mid-cap E&amp;Ps could handily outperform.
JPMorgan may not be bullish on crude, but it's still spotting high-conviction upside in energy equities. Investors willing to stomach the volatility might find more bang for their buck in these overlooked oil stocks.

<h3>The Impact of Insider Transactions on Investments</h3>
Insider transactions serve as a piece of the puzzle in investment decisions, rather than the entire picture.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Essential Transaction Codes Unveiled</h3>
For <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a>, a primary focus lies on transactions occurring in the open market, as indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.
