Exxon Mobil stock climbs nearly 2% today as OPEC+ and LNG catalysts take focus

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 18:49 ET — After-hours Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM) shares closed up 1.9% at $122.65 on Friday and were last little changed in after-hours trading. The stock traded between $119.66 and $122.78 in the regular session, with about 14.2 million shares changing hands. The advance came on the first trading day of 2026, with investors rotating into value-linked corners of the market while waiting on next week’s U.S. data. The S&P 500 ended up 0.19% and the Dow gained 0.66%, while the Nasdaq slipped 0.03%. Reuters Oil remained the immediate swing factor for energy majors after

Energy Fuels stock jumps nearly 12% as uranium miners rally on Denison Phoenix update

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 13:21 ET — Regular session Energy Fuels Inc (UUUU) shares jumped 11.8% to $16.26 in New York trading on Friday after opening at $14.66. The stock has traded between $14.72 and $16.44 and had seen about 8.7 million shares change hands by 1:10 p.m. ET. The move puts uranium miners back in focus at the start of 2026, when headline-driven flows can hit the sector hard. Project milestones often ripple quickly because many companies are still building toward future output. Denison Mines said it was ready to make a final investment decision — a go-ahead

NexGen Energy stock jumps as uranium names rally on Canada project milestone

NexGen Energy stock jumps as uranium names rally on Canada project milestone

New York, January 2, 2026, 1:02 PM ET — Regular session NexGen Energy Ltd shares climbed 9.8% to $10.10 in midday New York trading on Friday, after touching $10.20 earlier in the session. The move put the uranium developer among the stronger gainers in the space on the first trading day of 2026, as investors focused on regulatory and construction progress across Canada’s pipeline of new uranium supply. That matters because developers’ valuations tend to swing on confidence in permitting timelines and build costs, not current production, and Friday’s sector tape leaned into “shovel-ready” signals rather than long-dated exploration upside.

Chevron stock rises today as energy shares gain ahead of OPEC+ decision

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 13:10 ET — Regular session Chevron shares rose on Friday as energy stocks gained to start 2026. By 1:10 p.m. ET, Chevron Corp (CVX) was up 1.7% at $155.04, with about 3.0 million shares traded, after moving between $151.25 and $155.13. Exxon Mobil was up 1.4% and BP’s U.S.-listed shares gained 2.4%, while the Vanguard Energy ETF rose 1.6% and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF was little changed. The move matters now because oil markets are heading into an OPEC+ meeting on Sunday, when the producer group is expected to keep its current output policy

Fluence Energy stock jumps nearly 16% today as rate bets shift — what’s driving FLNC

Fluence Energy stock jumps nearly 16% today as rate bets shift — what’s driving FLNC

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 12:40 ET — Regular session Fluence Energy Inc shares jumped nearly 16% on Friday, outpacing a mixed broader market on the first trading day of 2026. The move matters because Fluence sits in a rate-sensitive part of the market: companies tied to long-lived infrastructure spending, where higher borrowing costs can quickly compress valuations. U.S. stocks were mixed on Friday as investors weighed what comes next for Federal Reserve policy and the early-January data slate. A key near-term test is next week’s U.S. labor market data, after the Fed signaled it wanted more clarity on jobs

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 12:34 ET — Regular session Uranium Energy Corp shares jumped about 10% in midday trading on Friday, tracking a broad rally in uranium miners at the start of the first U.S. session of 2026. The stock was up 10.3% at $12.88 after trading between $11.85 and $12.96, with about 4.5 million shares traded. Sentiment improved after Denison Mines said it was ready to make a final investment decision and begin building its Phoenix in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium mine, pending final federal approvals after a Canadian regulator hearing ended on Dec. 11. “Denison stands ready to

Exxon Mobil stock rises today as traders track oil slide and OPEC+ decision

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 11:09 ET — Regular session Shares of Exxon Mobil were up 0.6% at $121.07 by 10:55 a.m. ET, after trading between $119.66 and $121.10 earlier in the session. Oil prices slipped as 2026 trading opened after both Brent and U.S. crude logged annual losses of nearly 20% in 2025, their steepest drop since 2020, with investors weighing oversupply worries against geopolitical risks. Brent fell 51 cents to $60.34 a barrel and West Texas Intermediate was down 52 cents at $56.90 by 1350 GMT. “As of now, we are expecting a fairly boring year for (Brent)

Transocean stock today: RIG edges higher before the open as oil slips — what to watch next

Transocean stock today: RIG edges higher before the open as oil slips — what to watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:24 ET — Premarket Transocean Ltd shares rose 0.4% to $4.13 in premarket trading on Friday, a muted move as U.S. markets prepared to open for the first session of 2026. The offshore driller is starting the year with investors still debating what oil prices mean for exploration budgets and long-cycle offshore projects. Those projects can take years to sanction and tend to need stable crude prices before operators commit capital. That matters now because offshore drillers sell time on rigs under multi-month or multi-year contracts, and pricing hinges on how tight the market is.

Oklo stock today: OKLO edges up in premarket as investors eye funding, DOE milestones

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 07:10 ET — Premarket Oklo Inc. shares inched up about 0.2% to $71.76 in premarket trading on Friday. The modest move underscores how little it takes to nudge OKLO after a volatile 2025, when the stock’s swings often tracked shifts in risk appetite more than day-to-day fundamentals. The company is still in build-out mode, so traders tend to price the path — and the financing — rather than near-term revenue. That matters at the start of 2026 because investors are weighing two clocks at once: regulatory milestones that can take years, and capital needs that

The partnership traded about 13.5 million units as Wall Street headed into the New Year’s Day holiday. Yahoo Finance U.S. stock markets are closed Thursday for New Year’s Day, leaving investors with a longer gap before the next cash session.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 15:15 ET — Market closed Chevron shares closed slightly higher on Wednesday, the final trading day of 2025, ending up 0.1% at $152.41. U.S. markets were closed on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. Reuters The muted move capped a year-end stretch in which oil prices fell and posted their steepest annual drop since 2020, refocusing investors on how a softer crude tape could shape energy earnings early in 2026. Reuters That matters for Chevron and other integrated oil majors because benchmark prices feed directly into upstream revenue and cash generation, while cost inflation
