ConocoPhillips (COP) Chief Executive Ryan Lance reportedly told employees&nbsp;on Thursday that the decision to lay off as much as 25% of the workforce stemmed in part from the company losing competitiveness as it focused on acquiring smaller rivals.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/COP">ConocoPhillips’ stock</a> fell more than 3.5% in Friday afternoon trading, extending its weekly decline to about 6.7% on the layoff&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/conoco-phillips-to-lay-off-up-to-25-precent-of-its-workforce/chwcTx7Rdob">announcement</a>. However, retail sentiment on Stocktwits around the oil and gas producer moved higher within the ‘bullish’ zone over the past week."The cost and the whole competitiveness of the company probably took a backseat to those initiatives and those things we were doing for very real reasons, important reasons for the company," Lance said in a recording of the town hall,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/world-at-work/i-fault-myself-not-paying-more-attention-conoco-ceo-tells-employees-facing-deep-2025-09-05/">cited</a> by Reuters. The report stated that the town hall meeting took place a day after the company announced the layoffs, which are part of a broader restructuring aimed at reducing costs.&nbsp;"I fault myself for not paying attention and keeping the other things sort of centered and important," added Lance. "We probably backslid a little bit in the cost effort... maybe we should have been smarter about how we did it."&nbsp;Last year, the company bought Marathon Oil for $22.5 billion. In 2021, ConocoPhillips acquired Concho Resources for $9.7 billion and bought Permian assets from oil major Shell (SHEL) for $9.5 billion.&nbsp;The energy industry has undergone the largest consolidation in a generation over the past two years, according&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ey.com/en_us/newsroom/2025/08/consolidation-reshapes-the-us-oil-and-gas-industry">to</a> EY.

Exxon Mobil (XOM) is reportedly looking to sell its European chemical plants as the sector is grappling with higher U.S. tariffs and intense competition from producers in China.According to a report by the Financial Times, Exxon has held early-stage discussions with advisers in recent weeks on possible sales, which could fetch up to $1 billion.The supermajor is specifically weighing the sale of its plants in the UK and Belgium, the report stated. The company owns an ethylene plant in the Scottish town of Fife, alongside multiple production sites in Belgium. The company had also discussed just shutting them down.However, the report mentioned that there was no guarantee a deal would materialize and Exxon could choose to retain the facilities. If the Houston-based company goes through with the sale, it will join another U.S. firm, LyondellBasell, which has decided to offload four struggling production facilities on the continent.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/XOM">Exxon</a> was in the ‘neutral’ territory at the time of writing.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:797/96;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/XOM_Sept_4_JPG_4ef01009c1.webp" alt="XOM’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 02:28 a.m. ET on Sept. 4, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits" width="797" height="96"><figcaption>XOM’s Sentiment Meter and Message Volume as of 02:28 a.m. ET on Sept. 4, 2025 | Source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>For years, chemical producers have struggled to cope with rising energy and feedstock costs alongside intense competition from Chinese producers. In the first quarter, Europe’s chemical capacity utilization stood at 74%, significantly below the EU’s long-term average. Chemicals production in the 27-nation block has trailed behind the U.S. for the last three years.While major EU economies are still struggling to gather momentum, U.S. President Donald Trump’s 15% tariffs have further made EU exports uncompetitive across the Atlantic.Exxon, which has frequently criticized Brussels for its policies, had said in May that it was in exclusive talks to sell its controlling stake in French fuel unit Esso SAF, as well as its wholly owned chemical business in the country to North Atlantic France SAS, a unit of Canadian fuel retailer North Atlantic.Exxon shares have gained 3.4% this year.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-s-white-house-backs-off-from-wto-funding-cuts-after-criticism/chw5uvHRdoF">Trump’s White House Backs Off From WTO Funding Cuts After Criticism</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Oil prices slipped in Asia trading hours on Monday after OPEC+ once again decided to significantly raise output amid concerns over the health of the U.S. economy, the top oil consumer.Brent crude prices slipped 0.5% at $69.33 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude prices fell 0.5% at $67 per barrel. However, retail sentiment on Stocktwits about the United States Oil Fund (USO) was still in the ‘bullish’ territory at the time of writing.The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, including Russia, said on Sunday that they would increase September production by 547,000 barrels per day (bpd) compared to August, the latest in a series of output hikes as they attempt to regain market share. The group noted that the decision was taken due to a steady “global economic outlook and current healthy market fundamentals.”While summer demand has remained strong in the Western Hemisphere, analysts predict that oil supply will outpace demand by year-end. Both future contracts had fallen by over $2 on Friday, after the soft U.S. jobs data had signaled raised concerns over oil consumption in the world’s largest economy.According to a Reuters <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/oil-slips-opec-proceeds-with-september-output-hike-2025-08-03/">report</a>, Goldman Sachs analysts noted that the actual supply boost from the eight OPEC+ countries stands at about 1.7 million bpd, or about two-thirds of announced capacity, as other group members have looked to cut capacity to compensate for overproducing earlier."While OPEC+ policy remains flexible and the geopolitical outlook uncertain, we assume that OPEC+ keeps required production unchanged after September," the analysts reportedly said in the note before adding that the rise in non-OPEC production will likely not leave much scope for extra OPEC+ barrels.However, potential penalties on the buyers of Russian crude could still crimp supplies and provide a boost to oil prices. According to reports, Indian officials have not instructed refiners to stop buying Russian oil despite threats by U.S. President Donald Trump to impose additional 100% levies.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/asian-economies-brace-for-export-hit-as-us-tariff-effects-begin-to-bite/chrX2aoRdR9">Asian Economies Brace For Export Hit As US Tariff Effects Begin To Bite</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Oil Prices Dip As OPEC+ Set To Boost September Output Amid U.S. Economic Jitters

Brent crude prices slipped 0.5% to $69.33 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude prices fell 0.5% to $67 per barrel.

Oil prices rose in early trading on Monday, aided by optimism surrounding the trade deal between the U.S. and the European Union, amid hopes of an extension of the tariff truce between Beijing and Washington, D.C.Benchmark Brent crude prices rose nearly 1% to $69.08 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate crude prices gained 0.8% at $65.58 per barrel at 2.30 a.m. ET. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about the <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/USO">United States Oil Fund</a> (USO) was in the ‘neutral’ territory at the time of writing.The EU agreed to a baseline tariff of 15% for its exports to the U.S., including automobiles. The 27-nation bloc also agreed to American energy products worth $750 billion and pledged to invest $600 billion in the U.S. The deal alleviated some concerns about a slowdown in economic growth, as the EU is Washington's largest trading partner.Separately, U.S. and Chinese officials will meet in Stockholm to extend a tariff truce beyond the Aug. 12 deadline. Key topics of discussion include how long the tariff truce will last, U.S. levies linked to fentanyl trafficking, and China’s imports of sanctioned oil from Russia and Iran. Trump said on Sunday that his administration was “very close” to securing a trade deal with China.However, the prospect of rising oil supplies was weighing on prices. The market monitoring panel for the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies is scheduled to meet on Monday at 1200 GMT. A Reuters report said that while it is unlikely to recommend altering existing plans by eight members to raise oil output by 548,000 barrels per day in August, a change cannot be ruled out yet.“The market has largely taken rising OPEC+ production in stride, but there may still be some point where one barrel too many does tip the market lower,” said energy market analyst Tim Evans in a note.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/thousands-of-dominion-energy-customers-in-virginia-remain-without-power-after-storms/choeQAYR5DI">Thousands Of Dominion Energy Customers In Virginia Remain Without Power After Storms</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Baker Hughes stock gained 1.6% in premarket trading on Wednesday after the oilfield technology firm’s second-quarter profit topped Wall Street estimates amid strong data center-related orders.The company reported adjusted earnings of $0.63 per share for the three months ended June 30, while analysts expected it to post $0.55 per share in earnings, according to Fiscal.ai data. Its revenue of $6.9 billion also topped estimates, but came in lower than a year earlier.Similar to its rivals, SLB and Halliburton, <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/BKR">Baker Hughes</a> projected a decline in oilfield activity amid concerns about oil demand. The firm expects upstream spending in North America to be down low-double digit percentage points and international to decline by high-single digit percentage points.However, the company is banking on growing power demand to mitigate the impact of a weak outlook for its core oilfield services segment. According to a <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.deloitte.com/us/en/insights/industry/power-and-utilities/data-center-infrastructure-artificial-intelligence.html">report</a> by Deloitte, power demand from AI data centers in the United States is expected to grow more than thirtyfold, reaching 123 gigawatts, up from 4 gigawatts in 2024.The company said that orders at its Industrial &amp; Energy Technology reached $3.5 billion in the second quarter, resulting in another record backlog for the segment. About $500 million of the new orders were related to data center projects. The company raised the full-year revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) forecast for the IET segment.Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was in the ‘bullish’ territory at the time of writing, while retail chatter was ‘high.’The company also said it expects to "meet or exceed" its three-year goal to confirm $1.5 billion of orders in data center equipment ahead of prior expectations. It also continues to expect tariff impact between $100 million and $200 million on consolidated 2025 core earnings.“We remain confident in our ability to deliver solid performance in 2025, with continued growth in IET helping to offset softness in more market-sensitive areas of OFSE – underscoring the strength of our portfolio and the benefits of our strategic diversification,” CEO Lorenzo Simonelli said.Baker Hughes stock has fallen 3.8% this year.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/rocket-companies-joining-meme-stock-frenzy-retail-sees-mortgage-firm-taking-off-to-the-skies-amid-potential-short-squeeze/ch8wSRWR5Ma">Rocket Companies Joining Meme Stock Frenzy?

Oil prices fell on Tuesday as investors remained concerned about the worsening global economic outlook, driven by trade tensions and higher supplies.Benchmark Brent crude prices were down 40 cents at $68.81 per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude prices fell by 0.7% at $65.51 per barrel at 2.15 a.m. ET. &nbsp;Uncertain U.S. tariff policy is raising doubts about improvement in consumer sentiment during the second half of the year. According to the July report by the International Energy Agency, oil demand is expected to grow by about 700,000 barrels per day in 2025, the slowest pace of growth since 2009.According to a Reuters News report, Priyanka Sachdeva, senior market analyst at Phillip Nova, said, "Broad demand concerns continue to simmer amid escalating global trade tensions, especially as markets eye the latest tariff threats between major economies and Trump's potential announcements ahead of [the] August 1 deadline."On Sunday, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/trump-commerce-secretary-lutnick-confident-of-sealing-great-eu-trade-deal/ch8qDZfR5A9">confirmed</a> that Aug. 1 is the “hard deadline” before the reciprocal tariffs take effect. However, he added that countries could still negotiate with the U.S. to lower the tariffs, which have reached as high as 40% for some countries.A rise in supply is also putting downward pressure on oil prices.
