Hess Corporation (NYSE:HES), a leading oil & gas firm, experienced an uptick in investment activities. Multiple entities, including Retirement Systems of Alabama, TD Private Client Wealth LLC, and Geode Capital Management, increased their holdings. Even as it outperformed its competitors, the company sustained losses on some trading days. Hess is touted as Guyana's growth engine within Ken Griffin's portfolio, reflecting the company's expansion efforts into new markets. It received favorable nods with Wells Fargo upgrading its stock, declaring the company's aggressive growth is alluring for hedge funds. Despite performing well, Hess experienced sale of shares by companies like Barclays PLC, Virtu Financial LLC, and State Street Corp. A notable SWOT analysis offers strategic insights into its operations. Market prospects look promising following Q3 earnings, and the company's announcement of a regular quarterly dividend seems well received. Despite concerns about management's silence, the company continues to be part of the best hedge fund stock picks by Goldman Sachs. Notably, the Corporation's HSR clearance for the Chevron-Hess merger signals a significant milestone. However, it also noted a dip in its stock price and regulatory risks pose challenges for their growth trajectory.
