Chevron Corporation (CVX), a major player in the energy sector, has seen a series of recent developments. After 145 years, the firm is moving its headquarters from California to Texas, citing California's discouraging policies as a primary factor. This move indicates a significant business pivot for the company. Despite higher revenues, CVX's Q2 2024 earnings fell short of estimates, chiefly due to shortcomings in natural gas and refining. Interestingly, CVX's stock has risen 7% following these results. The company also announced a Q3 dividend of $1.63 per share. CVX also seems poised to gain ground in the hydrogen and fuel cell market. However, the company faces a setback with its $53 billion merger with Hess, facing a delay due to scheduling issues. The stock has significantly underperformed, causing a decline in investor sentiment. Nevertheless, the firm managed to sustain a substantial institutional ownership of 67%, demonstrating strong backing. Also, CVX announced that it exited the UK North Sea, divesting its remaining assets.
