NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 6:30 PM ET — Market closed Valero Energy Corp shares will be in focus when U.S. markets reopen on Monday after the United States attacked Venezuela and captured President Nicolas Maduro on Saturday, U.S. President Donald Trump said. The move matters for Valero because Washington’s action has tightened the screws on Venezuela’s oil flows, a source of heavy crude used by U.S. Gulf Coast refineries. Venezuela’s oil exports are now paralyzed, with port captains not authorizing loaded tankers to depart, four sources close to operations said. With the market closed for the weekend, Valero (VLO)

Broadband Blackouts & Starlink Smugglers: Inside Venezuela’s Fight for Internet Access

CANTV, the state-owned fixed broadband incumbent, dominated traditional internet with about 56% market share as of late 2022, while its aging ADSL copper network remained slow and repair backlogs persisted. From August 2020 to August 2023, Venezuela jumped 50 places in Speedtest’s global broadband index, rising from an average 6.15 Mbps to 29.5 Mbps.

Trump’s Venezuela Oil Tanker Blockade Sends Oil Prices Higher and Puts Maduro Under Fresh Pressure

Trump’s Venezuela Oil Tanker Blockade Sends Oil Prices Higher and Puts Maduro Under Fresh Pressure

Dec. 18, 2025 — A new U.S. move targeting Venezuela’s oil lifeline is rippling far beyond Caracas, jolting energy markets, rattling shipping routes in the Caribbean, and drawing warnings from global powers—including Russia and China—about the risk of escalation. Late this week, President Donald Trump said he is ordering a “total and complete blockade” of sanctioned oil tankers moving into and out of Venezuela, intensifying Washington’s effort to choke off revenue for President Nicolás Maduro’s government. The announcement has already changed tanker behavior near Venezuelan ports and pushed crude prices off recent lows, even as traders debate what the policy

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. Reuters Below is what investors are digesting from the Dec. 20, 2025 news cycle and the most current forecasts and analyses surrounding Chevron stock (CVX) as the market looks toward

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:26 ET — Market closed Phillips 66 shares are set to be in focus when U.S. markets reopen after President Donald Trump said U.S. forces attacked Venezuela and captured President Nicolas Maduro on Saturday. Maduro is expected to appear in Manhattan federal court on Monday and the U.N. Security Council is due to meet over the U.S. action, Reuters reported.  Reuters The developments matter for refiners because Venezuela’s crude is predominantly heavy oil — a thicker, lower-quality grade that many complex Gulf Coast refineries are built to process.

NEW YORK — Monday, December 15, 2025 (3:30 p.m. EST) — Crude oil is trading lower in late-afternoon dealings as the market weighs fresh geopolitical supply risks—especially escalating U.S.-Venezuela tensions and operational disruption fears—against an increasingly dominant narrative for 2026: a potential global oil surplus large enough to keep prices capped even when headlines turn more bullish.
