** TD Cowen changes PT on U.S.-based oilfield services company, following capture of Nicolás Maduro and as investors anticipate increased oilfield investment in Venezuela
** Brokerage says increased investment in Venezuela will take time and need strong U.S. government guarantees
** "The stock move seems overdone given Venezuela’s small revenue share, but OFS stocks remain attractively valued and Venezuela could still act as a catalyst," TD Cowen says
** However, brokerage cuts PT on Baker Hughes BKR.O and SLB SLB.N citing guidance risks and conservative outlook, with prior SLB revisions tempering upside
