Chevron stock price steadies near $167 after oil slides; CVX traders eye Venezuela shift, earnings next week
New York, Jan 22, 2026, 19:48 EST — After-hours Chevron (CVX.N) shares closed Thursday marginally lower, slipping 0.04% to $166.66. After-hours trading showed little movement following the 4 p.m. close. (FinancialContent) The stock has resumed tracking crude prices. Thursday’s decline in oil pared down the “risk premium”—the additional cost traders factor in amid geopolitical uncertainty—and that usually weighs on major integrated producers fast. This is crucial now as investors weigh whether more barrels from sanctioned producers, particularly Venezuela, will enter global supply right as Chevron prepares to report its quarterly earnings. Brent crude dropped $1.18, closing at $64.06 a barrel.
