Occidental Shares Climb As Buffett Buys, Icahn Exits Stake
04:00pm, Monday, 07'th Mar 2022 Zero Hedge
Occidental Shares Climb As Buffett Buys, Icahn Exits Stake Shares of Occidental Petroleum opened higher on Monday (although off their highs from overnight) after Warren Buffett''s Berkshire Hathaway revealed over the weekend that it had purchased some 61 million shares (worth roughly $3.1 billion) at an average price of $50.87. He apparently bought the shares from Carl Icahn, who has exited the last of his holdings in the oil giant. Warren Buffett Shares of the US-based oil giant were up more than 2% after the open on Monday after reaching a premarket high of $64 (a gain of roughly 4%). The buys bring Buffett''s overall total of 113.7 million shares, a figure that represents an 11.2% stake in the Houston-based energy group. Buffett''s Berkshire Hathaway filed its SEC Form 4 on Friday (which the firm filed because its ownership stake in Oxy is now higher than 10%) after buying up shares of the company in 14 separate transactions over the course of last week. Meanwhile, WSJ reported on Sunday that Carl Icahn, who started building his stake in Occidental three years ago (when he disputed the firm''s $38 billion buyout of Anadarko Petroleum, during which it outbid rival Chevron), had sold the last of his shares in the group, and will pull two executives, Andrew Langham and Gary Hu, from the firm''s board of directors.
