State-owned companies and smaller businesses have tens of billions more.</p><p>Chevron and Exxon Mobil hold $48.3 billion of such assets, up $1 billion from the beginning of the year, according to FactSet. Before the cash pileup in recent months, the last time they collectively surpassed $40 billion was in the final weeks of George W. Bush&#39;s presidency as U.S. crude neared the end of a monthslong retreat from a record $145 a barrel.</p><p>Oil profits last year ballooned after Russia&#39;s war on Ukraine pushed up prices and turned gasoline into a street-level reminder that inflation neared 40-year highs. As benchmark U.S. crude prices have dropped 11% this year, to $71.34 a barrel, international oil majors, U.S. fuel-makers, independent drillers, Texas wildcatters and Appalachian frackers have kept gobs of cash on hand -- partially as insurance if the slide continues.</p><p>&#34;We know the good times don&#39;t last,&#34; Chevron Chief Financial Officer Pierre Breber told analysts in an earnings call.</p><p>President Biden has called on producers to ramp up output in a bid to lower prices at the pump. &#34;These balance sheets make clear that there is nothing stopping oil companies from boosting production except their own decision to pad wealthy shareholder pockets and then sit on whatever is left,&#34; White House Assistant Press Secretary Abdullah Hasan said.</p><p>But investors have favored financial discipline, and executives are increasingly compensated based on shareholder returns. It marks an about-face in the U.S. oil patch, where companies for years chased production growth by tapping gushers of crude in regions such as the Permian Basin in Texas and Bakken shale in North Dakota.</p><p>By June 2020, as the pandemic brought parts of the country to a standstill, Chevron and Exxon Mobil had together devoted more cash to capital expenditures than shareholder returns for at least 28 straight quarters, according to FactSet. The ratio has been the opposite every quarter since, with the companies paying out $14.8 billion in dividends and buybacks in the first three months of this year, compared with $8.4 billion in capital investment.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9901a5a86892135ea62e413cbb19354a\" tg-width=\"646\" tg-height=\"518\"/></p><p>Mr. Breber said the San Ramon, Calif.-based Chevron, which boasts almost $15.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents, could operate with a balance sheet one-third the size.</p><p>&#34;We want to return it [to shareholders] through the cycle in a steady way,&#34; he told analysts.</p><p>Other U.S. companies have more recently followed the majors&#39; lead. At ConocoPhillips and 48 smaller publicly traded oil-and-gas firms, executives in the fourth quarter of 2022 funneled 42% of the cash they used into shareholder returns, according to an analysis of financial disclosures by Evaluate Energy. Capital investments comprised 35% of such funds in that period -- down from 67% in the first quarter of 2020.</p><p>&#34;U.S. oil-and-gas producers are less focused on capital spending than they have been in years,&#34; said Mark Young, a senior analyst at Evaluate Energy.</p><p>The cash buildup owes itself to other factors as well. Many companies have paid off debt racked up during growth mode, when they dug much of the top-tier territory for wells. While some companies have pledged huge sums to carbon-capture technology or hydrogen production, clean-energy investment has been slowed by lower expected returns and the wait for yet-to-be-finalized regulations in Mr. Biden&#39;s climate package.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ec1351ed4a819e5592d91cf17bf99602\" tg-width=\"654\" tg-height=\"529\"/></p><p>Large companies such as Exxon Mobil have also explored acquisitions to scoop up independent or privately held drillers with faster-growing shale output, The Wall Street Journal has reported.</p><p>Exxon dwarfed other U.S. companies in the first quarter with nearly $32.7 billion cash on hand, up about $3 billion from the end of last year. With yields on short-term investments such as Treasurys higher than what Exxon pays on its debt, &#34;we&#39;re not incurring a negative cost of carry on that cash balance,&#34; Chief Financial Officer Kathryn Mikells told analysts on an earnings call.</p><p>That financial reality, brought on in part by Federal Reserve interest-rate increases aimed at slowing the economy, is changing the idea of what makes an optimal balance sheet for oil companies in an unpredictable market, said Sam Margolin, an analyst at Wolfe Research.</p><p>&#34;It definitely takes the pressure off of trying to jettison cash as quickly as possible,&#34; he said.</p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Big Oil Has $150 Billion in Cash and Investors Want a Share</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBig Oil Has $150 Billion in Cash and Investors Want a Share\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n<div class=\"head\" \">\n\n\n<div class=\"h-thumb\" style=\"background-image:url(https://static.tigerbbs.com/150f88aa4d182df19190059f4a365e99);background-size:cover;\"></div>\n\n<div class=\"h-content\">\n<p class=\"h-name\">Dow Jones </p>\n<p class=\"h-time\">2023-05-08 19:28</p>\n</div>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<html><head></head><body><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0a34ab623b609c908e6c6ea43a37953e\" tg-width=\"1278\" tg-height=\"1278\"/></p><p>Oil-and-gas companies have built up a mountain of cash with few precedents in recent history.

Wall Street has a few ideas on how to spend it -- and new drilling isn't near the top of the list.Many companies are cutting costs and raining cash on stock pickers like Berkshire Hathaway's Warren Buffett, who believe the world's thirst for oil will continue for years, if not decades, to come. The promise of money returned to shareholders helped turn energy shares into some of the few bright spots in a dark moment for markets last year, fueled by commodity prices that skyrocketed after Russia's invasion of Ukraine.Even as an uncertain economic outlook has weighed on crude in 2023, making the energy sector the S&P 500's worst performer, cash has continued flowing. Companies that previously chased growth and funneled money into speculative drilling investments, weighing down their stocks, have instead tried to appease Wall Street by boosting dividends and repurchasing shares.The cash has helped make up for stock prices that often seesaw alongside volatile commodity markets. Steady returns also buoy an industry with an uncertain long-term outlook as governments, markets and the global economy gradually shift toward cleaner energy.\"They've paid dividends forever. That's been a hallmark,\" said Rob Thummel, managing director at Tortoise, an energy investment firm. \"But now there's excess cash beyond dividends to do buybacks.\"Six companies often described as Big Oil -- Italy's Eni, France's TotalEnergies, the U.K.'s Shell and BP, and domestically headquartered Chevron and Exxon Mobil -- reported nearly $160 billion in cash and cash equivalents across their balance sheets at the end of the first quarter. State-owned companies and smaller businesses have tens of billions more.Chevron and Exxon Mobil hold $48.3 billion of such assets, up $1 billion from the beginning of the year, according to FactSet. Before the cash pileup in recent months, the last time they collectively surpassed $40 billion was in the final weeks of George W. Bush's presidency as U.S. crude neared the end of a monthslong retreat from a record $145 a barrel.Oil profits last year ballooned after Russia's war on Ukraine pushed up prices and turned gasoline into a street-level reminder that inflation neared 40-year highs.

Wall Street has a few ideas on how to spend it -- and new drilling isn&#39;t near the top of the list.</p><p>Many companies are cutting costs and raining cash on stock pickers like Berkshire Hathaway&#39;s Warren Buffett, who believe the world&#39;s thirst for oil will continue for years, if not decades, to come. The promise of money returned to shareholders helped turn energy shares into some of the few bright spots in a dark moment for markets last year, fueled by commodity prices that skyrocketed after Russia&#39;s invasion of Ukraine.</p><p>Even as an uncertain economic outlook has weighed on crude in 2023, making the energy sector the S&amp;P 500&#39;s worst performer, cash has continued flowing. Companies that previously chased growth and funneled money into speculative drilling investments, weighing down their stocks, have instead tried to appease Wall Street by boosting dividends and repurchasing shares.</p><p>The cash has helped make up for stock prices that often seesaw alongside volatile commodity markets. Steady returns also buoy an industry with an uncertain long-term outlook as governments, markets and the global economy gradually shift toward cleaner energy.</p><p>&#34;They&#39;ve paid dividends forever. That&#39;s been a hallmark,&#34; said Rob Thummel, managing director at Tortoise, an energy investment firm. &#34;But now there&#39;s excess cash beyond dividends to do buybacks.&#34;</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e827c117ba37963fc7dd52192faa2771\" tg-width=\"619\" tg-height=\"514\"/></p><p>Six companies often described as Big Oil -- Italy&#39;s Eni, France&#39;s TotalEnergies, the U.K.&#39;s Shell and BP, and domestically headquartered Chevron and Exxon Mobil -- reported nearly $160 billion in cash and cash equivalents across their balance sheets at the end of the first quarter. State-owned companies and smaller businesses have tens of billions more.</p><p>Chevron and Exxon Mobil hold $48.3 billion of such assets, up $1 billion from the beginning of the year, according to FactSet. Before the cash pileup in recent months, the last time they collectively surpassed $40 billion was in the final weeks of George W. Bush&#39;s presidency as U.S. crude neared the end of a monthslong retreat from a record $145 a barrel.</p><p>Oil profits last year ballooned after Russia&#39;s war on Ukraine pushed up prices and turned gasoline into a street-level reminder that inflation neared 40-year highs. As benchmark U.S. crude prices have dropped 11% this year, to $71.34 a barrel, international oil majors, U.S. fuel-makers, independent drillers, Texas wildcatters and Appalachian frackers have kept gobs of cash on hand -- partially as insurance if the slide continues.</p><p>&#34;We know the good times don&#39;t last,&#34; Chevron Chief Financial Officer Pierre Breber told analysts in an earnings call.</p><p>President Biden has called on producers to ramp up output in a bid to lower prices at the pump. &#34;These balance sheets make clear that there is nothing stopping oil companies from boosting production except their own decision to pad wealthy shareholder pockets and then sit on whatever is left,&#34; White House Assistant Press Secretary Abdullah Hasan said.</p><p>But investors have favored financial discipline, and executives are increasingly compensated based on shareholder returns. It marks an about-face in the U.S. oil patch, where companies for years chased production growth by tapping gushers of crude in regions such as the Permian Basin in Texas and Bakken shale in North Dakota.</p><p>By June 2020, as the pandemic brought parts of the country to a standstill, Chevron and Exxon Mobil had together devoted more cash to capital expenditures than shareholder returns for at least 28 straight quarters, according to FactSet. The ratio has been the opposite every quarter since, with the companies paying out $14.8 billion in dividends and buybacks in the first three months of this year, compared with $8.4 billion in capital investment.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/9901a5a86892135ea62e413cbb19354a\" tg-width=\"646\" tg-height=\"518\"/></p><p>Mr. Breber said the San Ramon, Calif.-based Chevron, which boasts almost $15.7 billion in cash and cash equivalents, could operate with a balance sheet one-third the size.</p><p>&#34;We want to return it [to shareholders] through the cycle in a steady way,&#34; he told analysts.</p><p>Other U.S. companies have more recently followed the majors&#39; lead. At ConocoPhillips and 48 smaller publicly traded oil-and-gas firms, executives in the fourth quarter of 2022 funneled 42% of the cash they used into shareholder returns, according to an analysis of financial disclosures by Evaluate Energy. Capital investments comprised 35% of such funds in that period -- down from 67% in the first quarter of 2020.</p><p>&#34;U.S. oil-and-gas producers are less focused on capital spending than they have been in years,&#34; said Mark Young, a senior analyst at Evaluate Energy.</p><p>The cash buildup owes itself to other factors as well.

But if you choose individua","content":"<html><body><p>One simple way to benefit from the stock market is to buy an index fund. But if you choose individual stocks with prowess, you can make superior returns. For example, the <strong><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/AUY\">Yamana Gold Inc</a>.</strong> (TSE:YRI) share price is up 74% in the last three years, clearly besting the market return of around 18% (not including dividends). </p>\n<p><span> See our latest analysis for Yamana Gold </span></p>\n<p> While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. </p>\n<p> Yamana Gold became profitable within the last three years. That would generally be considered a positive, so we'd expect the share price to be up. </p>\n<p> The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). </p>\n<figure>\n<img src=\"https://s1.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/X_iMyTgl3HEODBPyq4D35A--/cT03NTthcHBpZD15dmlkZW9mZWVkczs-/https://media.zenfs.com/en/simply_wall_st__316/8cf9b96609c08d7d3a7f7b944bb4cd09\"/>\n<figcaption>\n  TSX:YRI Earnings Per Share Growth May 25th 2021\n </figcaption>\n</figure>\n<p> We know that Yamana Gold has improved its bottom line over the last three years, but what does the future have in store? You can see how its balance sheet has strengthened (or weakened) over time in this <strong>free</strong> interactive graphic. </p>\n<h3>What About Dividends?</h3>\n<p> As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. As it happens, Yamana Gold's TSR for the last 3 years was 80%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the <em>total</em> shareholder return. </p>\n<h3>A Different Perspective</h3>\n<p> Investors in Yamana Gold had a tough year, with a total loss of 13% (including dividends), against a market gain of about 40%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 4% per year over half a decade. If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Yamana Gold better, we need to consider many other factors. For example, we've discovered <strong>3 warning signs for Yamana Gold</strong> (1 can't be ignored!) that you should be aware of before investing here. </p>\n<p> For those who like to find <strong>winning investments</strong> this <strong>free</strong> list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket. </p>\n<p><em>Please note, the market returns quoted in this article reflect the market weighted average returns of stocks that currently trade on CA exchanges.</em></p>\n<p><i>This article by Simply Wall St is general in nature.

But if you choose individual stocks with prowess, you can make superior returns. For example, the Yamana Gold Inc. (TSE:YRI) share price is up 74% in the last three years, clearly besting the market return of around 18% (not including dividends). \n See our latest analysis for Yamana Gold \n While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. One flawed but reasonable way to assess how sentiment around a company has changed is to compare the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price. \n Yamana Gold became profitable within the last three years. That would generally be considered a positive, so we'd expect the share price to be up. \n The graphic below depicts how EPS has changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image). \n\n\n\n  TSX:YRI Earnings Per Share Growth May 25th 2021\n \n\n We know that Yamana Gold has improved its bottom line over the last three years, but what does the future have in store? You can see how its balance sheet has strengthened (or weakened) over time in this free interactive graphic. \nWhat About Dividends?\n As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. As it happens, Yamana Gold's TSR for the last 3 years was 80%, which exceeds the share price return mentioned earlier. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return. \nA Different Perspective\n Investors in Yamana Gold had a tough year, with a total loss of 13% (including dividends), against a market gain of about 40%. Even the share prices of good stocks drop sometimes, but we want to see improvements in the fundamental metrics of a business, before getting too interested. On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 4% per year over half a decade. If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Yamana Gold better, we need to consider many other factors. For example, we've discovered 3 warning signs for Yamana Gold (1 can't be ignored!) that you should be aware of before investing here. \n For those who like to find winning investments this free list of growing companies with recent insider purchasing, could be just the ticket. \nPlease note, the market returns quoted in this article reflect the market weighted average returns of stocks that currently trade on CA exchanges.\nThis article by Simply Wall St is general in nature.
