PBR Jumps; Performance That Cannot Be Matched; Pre-salt Reserves Starting to Produce

PBR and XOM comparison:

The reason is that PBR announced its results for the year, and they rock. They have announced an increase of their targets daily production for 2011. With its huge pre-salt reserves now starting to come online and producing (slowly), that is something that XOM cannot match.

PBR has recovered from the IPO, money to be used for the new wells.
