NextEra Energy, Inc.

Chevron Stock (CVX) Week Ahead Forecast: Venezuela Oil Crackdown, Holiday-Thin Trading, and the Key Levels to Watch (Dec. 22–26, 2025)

Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) heads into Christmas week with a very specific setup: thin holiday liquidity, big geopolitics around Venezuelan crude flows, and a market trying to decide whether year-end tailwinds (the “Santa rally” narrative) can overcome rate-path uncertainty and shutdown-delayed data.

Utilities Stocks Week Ahead (Dec 22–26, 2025): Data-Center Power Demand, Record PJM Prices, and Fed “Pause” Signals Shape the Holiday Trade

That tension—lower-rate tailwinds vs. higher-capex and higher-bills backlash—is likely to
