UBS maintains a 'Buy' on LyondellBasell Industries (NYSE: LYB) price target raised $1 to $51.

Analyst, Andrew W. Cash, said, "LYB is a favorite of ours because there are multiple reasons its total return could beat the market. We expect LYB to benefit from a low WTI oil-to-US gas price ratio, internal self-help projects, strategic actions, and return a generous portion of its free cash flow to shareholders...With management’s prudent use of free cash flow, we expect investors to see a minimum return of 10% per year for the next few years, assuming a flat stock market." (Raises FY13 EPS estimate from $5.05 to $6.00)
