Why Occidental Petroleum Stock Slumped 15% in the First Half of 2025
2025-07-16 12:16:48 ET
Occidental Petroleum (NYSE: OXY) , an S&P 500 stock, was a significant underperformer in 2024 when it lost 17% of its value. Unfortunately for investors in the oil stock, its losing streak has continued into 2025 so far, with shares of Occidental shedding another 15% in the first half of the year according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence .
Crude oil prices have fallen in 2025, and that doesn't bode well for any oil producer. But is there more to Occidental stock's fall than just oil prices, or has the market overreacted and given investors a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy a stock that even legendary investor Warren Buffett loves ?
