Shares of Exxon Mobil have outperformed the Zacks Integrated International Oil industry in the year-to-date period (+59.9% vs. +33.3%). The Zacks analyst believes that major discoveries in the Stabroek Block have enhanced prospects for Exxon Mobil's upstream businesses.

The firm recently announced another significant oil discovery at the Longtail-3 well, offshore Guyana. The new find added to the prior estimate of gross recoverable resource of 9 billion barrels of oil equivalent in the Stabroek block. The firm also has a strong presence in the prolific Permian, where it continues to lower its fracking & drilling costs.

Texas Instruments' shares have gained +17.4% over the last six months against the Zacks General Semiconductor industry's gain of +30%. The Zacks analyst believes that Texas Instruments is benefiting from growth in the personal electronics market on the back of the pandemic-led work-from-home trend.

Further, solid momentum across the Analog segment due to robust signal chain and power product lines, has been boosting the top line. The company's portfolio of long-lived products and efficient manufacturing strategies are other major positives. However, coronavirus related uncertainties remain major headwinds.

Shares of GlaxoSmithKline have gained +10.8% in the past three months against the Zacks Large Cap Pharmaceuticals industry's gain of +11.2%. The Zacks analyst believes that Glaxo's new and specialty products like Nucala, Trelegy Ellipta, Shingrix and Juluca have been driving sales, making up for a decline in Established Pharmaceuticals due to generic erosion.

Glaxo has several new drug/line extension approvals in the pipeline in 2021, which is expected to boost the top line in the long term. However, generic competition to Advair has been weighing on the sales of Glaxo's respiratory products. Further, the company's HIV drugs have been facing increased competition in the market.
