Bullish chart

Shares of Permian Resources Corporation (PR) rise 174% since institutions first bought big in 2022.

PR is an oil and natural gas company focused on the responsible acquisition and development of crude oil and liquid natural gas reserves. The company’s second-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings report showed record free cash flow of $751 million (a nearly 50% sequential rise) or $0.88 per share, an acquisition of 55,000 net acres in the Delaware Basin (including 330 high-confidence locations), and raised 2026 oil production guidance of 199,000 barrels per day (a 10% annual gain). The company reports again on Nov. 5.

It’s no wonder PR shares are up 82% this year, and they could rise more. MoneyFlows data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the stock.
