Movement Alert｜Occidental Petroleum Rises 3.07% in Regular Trading, Hormuz Strait Incident and US-Iran Sanctions Drive Oil Prices Above $70

Market Focus

Yesterday

On July 8, Occidental Petroleum rose 3.07% in regular trading, trading at $52.93/share, with turnover of $117 million.

The rally was primarily driven by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. A ship attack near the Strait of Hormuz reignited concerns over disruptions to this critical energy transportation corridor. Simultaneously, the US resumed sanctions on Iranian oil exports, further intensifying supply risk fears. These developments pushed WTI crude above the $70/barrel threshold, with international oil prices surging approximately 5% intraday.

The broader oil sector rallied in tandem, with Exxon Mobil, Chevron, and other majors posting gains. Occidental Petroleum has also benefited from recent institutional upgrades, with Barclays raising its rating to Overweight with a $72 target price, and Goldman Sachs upgrading to Neutral with a $64 target. The company's next earnings report is scheduled for August 5, with consensus EPS estimates at $1.94.
