Chevron Stock (CVX) in Focus After Dec. 20 Venezuela Headlines: What the Latest News, Forecasts, and Analyst Targets Mean for 2026

Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) is heading into the final days of 2025 with its share price hovering around $148—but the most important catalyst for near-term sentiment isn’t an earnings headline or a refinery update. It’s geopolitics: a fast-escalating U.S. crackdown on Venezuelan oil shipping that, paradoxically, could raise oil-market risk premiums while also increasing operational and compliance risk for the one U.S. major still operating there under a special authorization.
