Truist lowered the firm’s price target on Diamondback Energy to $182 from $186 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note previewing Q2 results in the E&P sector.

The firm adds however that the low trading multiples, attractive cash flow yields, and strong balance sheets result in its continued overweight stance on the sector.
