MGY — Magnolia Oil & Gas Positive

Magnolia is a U.S. oil and gas producer — it drills wells and sells what comes out, so its profits rise and fall with oil prices. Barron's recommends buying it as a way to benefit from higher oil prices.

The extra kicker is a recent acquisition that Barron's calls well-timed: it gives Magnolia more production (more barrels to sell) and should make the company more profitable per barrel. The detailed case sits behind Barron's Investor Circle paywall and was not captured here.
