Occidental Petroleum (OXY) Stock News Today: Oil-Price Bounce, OxyChem Sale Countdown, Analyst Targets, and the 2026 Outlook (Dec. 18, 2025)

Occidental Petroleum Corporation is starting Dec. 18 with a very “energy-stock” storyline: a sharp one-day rebound in the share price, fresh macro tailwinds from oil-market headlines, and investors still trying to handicap a huge strategic pivot—the planned sale of OxyChem to Berkshire Hathaway—against the company’s 2026 spending and production plans.

Occidental Petroleum’s Big Deal with Berkshire & What’s Ahead: Stock Performance, News and Analysts’ View (October 2 2025)

Occidental Petroleum Primed for Action Monday: Berkshire Deal, Oil Trends & Analyst Outlook Unpacked

Friday’s close at $41.20stockanalysis.com left Occidental near the lower end of its recent trading range. In technical terms, the stock is hovering just above a chart support zone around $40.8–41.1chartmill.com. On that basis, Monday’s premarket session showed OXY little changed, following a flat oil-futures overnight. By contrast, broad markets were expected to open modestly higher on the heels of the Fed decision and mixed economic cues. Given OXY’s recent vol and current price, any meaningful gap either way could be triggered by oil price moves or news flow. The biggest recent story was the sale of OxyChem. On Oct. 2 Occidental confirmed it will sell its chemicals unit to Berkshire Hathaway for ~$9.7 billioninvesting.comnasdaq.com. About $6.5 billion of the proceeds are earmarked to pay down debtnasdaq.com, a move designed to strengthen the balance sheet. Market reaction was mixed – shares dipped on the newsinvesting.com but have stabilized.

Oil Prices Poised to Plunge in 2026 as Permian Boom Kicks In

Oil Prices Poised to Plunge in 2026 as Permian Boom Kicks In

The heart of the story is the Permian Basin, North America’s most prolific shale oil patch. It has been “producing for over 100 years and left for dead two or three times,” as Diamondback Energy’s CEO Kaes Van’t Hof notes, yet today the Permian alone yields over 6 million barrels per day – more than any country except the U.S. and Russia foxbusiness.com. Chevron’s Mike Wirth points out U.S. oil output now exceeds that of Saudi Arabia and Russia combined foxbusiness.com. Under the Trump administration’s energy policies, drilling and pipeline projects in the Permian have accelerated. Maria Bartiromo’s recent tour of Midland, TX, highlighted that Permian oil now supplies roughly 40% of U.S. production foxbusiness.com, a share slated to rise sharply. Texas Congressman August Pfluger – who joined the Permian tour – calls the basin the “crown jewel” of American energy pfluger.house.gov. He argues that the prior Biden administration’s regulatory agenda temporarily held back U.S. oil investment, saying they “drained the SPR for political reasons…attempted to impose a fracking ban” etc. pfluger.house.gov. Now, he and others say, policies are reversing – a new push for energy dominance is under way. Indeed, the White House recently proclaimed October “National Energy Dominance
