Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) has reached its
52-week high as the company's CEO, Vicki Hollub, announced plans for retirement.
OXY has recently made notable acquisitions, drawing the interest of investors like Nordea Investment Management AB and Lighthouse Investment Partners LLC, who increased their stakes. Barclays boosted their price target on OXY from $55 to $59.
Warren Buffett continues investing in OXY, supporting the company's strong position. The stock has reportedly risen about 30.6% over the last year, with possibilities of further growth. Capacity from
OXY's proven execution is in question with the upcoming CEO change. The company completed the sale of its chemical business to Berkshire Hathaway and boasted record Permian Production in its Q3 2025 Earnings Call. Several new investors have bought significant shares, indicating trust in the company's growth prospects. However, Hollub's exit has prompted criticisms over timing and price of
OXY's recent actions. Finally, JPMorgan and Piper Sandler have increased their price target for OXY.
