California Resources Corporation

One email when a drop — in price or in valuation — is historically rare for CRC. Otherwise we stay quiet.

Worth a look

Bigger than its usual dip. Not yet rare.

California Resources Corporation is 24.5% off its high — deeper than its 8.4% average pullback, but it has been through 37 drawdowns before. Not historically significant yet — we'll say so if that changes.

But down is not the same as cheap: California Resources Corporation's P/S Severity Score is 0.3 — its valuation sits in or above its typical range.
