Shares of oil and gas companies are trading higher following President Trump's decision to implement a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for all countries except China.

SHEL

Shares of energy stocks are trading lower as crude oil falls to 2021 levels, following OPEC+'s decision to accelerate production hikes. The market is also grappling with fears of a recession, fueled by President Trump's recent tariff announcements and China's retaliatory measures, which have heightened concerns over global demand.

Shares of energy stocks are trading lower as oil prices fall after OPEC+ producers accelerated output hikes. Additionally, President Trump's recent tariff announcements and China's retaliatory tariffs on the US have driven further demand uncertainty.

A sweeping new wave of tariffs unveiled by President Donald Trump on Wednesday triggered a sharp selloff during the after hours of trading as the scope and scale of the trade duties exceeded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44616760/donald-trump-sets-reciprocal-tariffs-on-key-trade-partners-in-historic-policy-shock">Wall Street's worst-case expectations.</a>
The president framed the move as a long-overdue correction to decades of trade imbalance, instituting what he called a "reciprocal tariff rate," set at 50% of what trading partners charge the United States, but also factoring in non-tariff barriers like currency manipulation, value-added taxes and outright import bans.
While Trump had telegraphed his intention to "rebalance" U.S. trade policy, the specific duty levels, some of which reached into the mid-30% range with key trading partners, jolted investors.
Under the new framework, China, which Trump said imposes tariffs as high as 67% on American goods, will now face reciprocal U.S. duties of approximately 37%. The European Union, which applies a 39% combined rate including VATs, will be subject to a 20% U.S. tariff. Japan, with an estimated 46% trade barrier, now faces a 24% duty on exports to the U.S.
Canada and Mexico, two major trading partners, were notably excluded from the tariff program — a move that suggests Trump may be preserving the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement, at least for now.
The White House confirmed that new trade tariffs will take effect on April 9.

Markets Reel As Trump's Tariffs Hit — Magnificent 7 Set To Shed Almost $700 Billion

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/s-p-500">S&amp;P 500 had</a> a rough start to 2025, sinking 6.53% over the first quarter, but not every sector suffered the same fate. 
While energy stocks lit up the leaderboard with a scorching 9.31% gain, consumer discretionary and technology stocks took a beating, plunging 14.23% and 13.1%, respectively.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Energy's Power Play</h2>
Oil and gas stocks came out swinging, with Hess Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>) leading the charge, soaring 21.34% over the past three months. EQT Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EQT#NYSE">EQT</a>) followed closely, rising 19.61%, while Devon Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DVN#NYSE">DVN</a>) and Coterra Energy (CTRA) also <a href="https://www.sectorspdrs.com/sectortracker">posted</a> double-digit gains. 
The biggest energy players, Chevron Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) and Exxon Mobil Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), delivered solid performances as well, gaining 15.34% and 10.57%, respectively.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Consumer Discretionary's Divide</h2>
It was a brutal quarter for consumer discretionary, but not all stocks in the sector were drowning. Auto parts retailers proved surprisingly resilient, with O'Reilly Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORLY#NASDAQ">ORLY</a>) accelerating 17.64% and AutoZone Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AZO#NYSE">AZO</a>) climbing 16.33%. Yum! Brands Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>), the parent company of Taco Bell and KFC, also managed a 15.18% gain, proving that fast food remains a winning bet even in choppy markets.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tech's Tough Quarter—But Some Shined</h2>
Tech stocks had a miserable run, but a few managed to buck the trend. VeriSign Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRSN#NASDAQ">VRSN</a>) surged 23.03%, leading the charge, while Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) and Roper Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROP#NASDAQ">ROP</a>) gained 11.87% and 11.21%, respectively. IBM (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NYSE">IBM</a>) also posted a solid 9.53% gain, and Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) continued its momentum, adding 8.56%.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h2>
With the second quarter underway, investors will be watching if Energy can keep its momentum or if beaten-down sectors like Tech and Consumer Discretionary stage a comeback. 
For now, it&#8217;s clear: Energy stocks ruled the first quarter, while Tech and Discretionary stocks got left in the dust.

Shares of oil and gas companies are trading lower as investors evaluate the February 1st tariff deadline for Mexico, Canada and China.

Caution dominates Wednesday's midday trading session in New York as investors anxiously await the Federal Open Market Committee decision <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">at 2 p.m. ET</a>.
The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates unchanged at 4.25%-4.5%. Market participants remain highly focused on any signals from Fed Chair Jerome Powell regarding the path forward for rate cuts.
The December meeting delivered a shock to markets, with Powell adopting a more hawkish tone than anticipated, suggesting that interest rates have moved closer to a neutral zone.
This FOMC meeting is also the first since Donald Trump's administration took office, fueling speculation over whether Powell will address questions about the president's pledge to &#8220;lower interest rates immediately.&#8221;

Stocks Tick Down Ahead Of Fed Meeting, Nvidia Jitters Resume, Trump Media Rallies: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

Hess Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>) shares are rising premarket on Wednesday after the company reported fourth-quarter sales of $3.19 billion, beating the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b43299268/hess-reports-estimated-results-for-the-fourth-quarter-of-2024" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of&nbsp;$2.87 billion</a>.
Exploration and Production (E&amp;P) net production rose to 495,000 boepd in the fourth quarter of 2024 from 418,000 boepd a year ago quarter, led by higher production in Guyana and the Bakken.
Notably, net production from Bakken rose 7% year-over-year (Y/Y) to 208,000 boepd and Guyana increased 52% Y/Y to 195,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) in the quarter.
Cash operating costs (including operating costs and expenses, production and severance taxes, and E&amp;P general and administrative expenses) stood at $12.95 per boe in the fourth quarter of 2024 vs. $13.29 per boe in the prior-year quarter.
Adj EPS of&nbsp;$1.76&nbsp;exceeded<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> the consensus of $1.48</a>.
As of December 31, 2024, oil and gas proved reserves stood at 1.44 billion boe, and net proved reserve additions and revisions in 2024 totaled 247 million boe, primarily from Guyana and the Bakken.
The company replaced 138% of its 2024 production at a finding and development cost of $19.67 per boe.

Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Invesco S&amp;P 500 Equal Weight Energy ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RSPG#NYSE">RSPG</a>) and iShares U.S. Oil &amp; Gas Exploration &amp; Production ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEO#BATS">IEO</a>).

Earnings Scheduled For January 29, 2025

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been updated to correct language around a report on U.S. sanctions on Russia to state that President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s economic team is considering either easing or increasing sanctions. 
The U.S. energy sector kicked off 2025 with a strong rally, outperforming all other sectors as crude prices soared and investors bet on a deregulatory shift under the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42383725/trump-administrations-deregulation-efforts-to-lift-energy-oil-and-gas-sectors-ai-frenzy-to-aid-faang-stocks-and-nvidia-says-fintech-insider">incoming Donald Trump administration</a>.
What Happened: The Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLE#NYSE">XLE</a>) has surged more than 8% in the first half of January. That&#8217;s well ahead of any other sector. Industrials, the next-best performer, are up just 3.7% over the same period.
Rising oil prices fuel the rally; crude topped $80 per barrel this week. Meanwhile, fresh U.S. sanctions on Russia and a larger-than-expected draw in domestic stockpiles stoke supply concerns.
The Biden administration's latest sanctions, imposed on Jan. 10, target Russian oil producers Gazprom Neft and Surgutneftegaz, as well as more than 160 tankers, tightening restrictions on Moscow's energy revenues. The move adds to existing supply constraints, and some analysts see more pressure ahead.
If Russian flows tighten further and sanctions on Iran and Venezuela intensify, oil prices could climb <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/42965857/oil-could-hit-90-goldman-sachs-says-trump-may-not-ease-sanctions-on-russia">toward $90 per barrel.</a> That&#8217;s according to Goldman Sachs commodity strategist Daan Struyven.
Adding to the uncertainty, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-16/trump-team-readies-oil-sanctions-plan-for-russia-deal-iran-squeeze?sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a> reported Thursday that Trump's economic team is weighing two options: easing or increasing sanctions as leverage with Russia, aiming to push Moscow toward negotiations over the war in Ukraine.
Trump has hinted at a potential meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, fueling speculation over how U.S. policy—and global energy markets—could change in the months ahead.

Why It Matters: Within the oil majors, Chevron Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>) has been the standout performer, gaining nearly 10% since the start of the year, while Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>) has added 3%.
In a note shared Thursday, Goldman Sachs analyst Neil Mehta expects a "constructive setup" for Chevron heading into 2025. He cites an expected production and free cash flow boost from its Tengiz operations, strong shareholder returns—projected at around 10% annually through dividends and buybacks—and improving operational execution.
Investors are also watching for updates on Chevron's acquisition of Hess Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HES#NYSE">HES</a>), particularly the ongoing arbitration process. 
Goldman Sachs doesn't take a stance on the outcome. Yet, Chevron management projects a resolution by the third quarter of 2025. Speaking at the Energy, CleanTech &amp; Utilities Conference last week, company executives expressed confidence in Hess' position and hinted at progress on regulatory approvals and integration planning.
Chevron shares have been on a tear. They hit a one-month high this week and could extend their winning streak to seven straight sessions on Thursday.
The company is set to report fourth-quarter earnings on Jan. 31, with Wall Street expecting earnings per share of $2.22 on revenue of $47.28 billion, according to <a href="https://bzresearch.myclickfunnels.com/benzinga-pro-content-webinar-registration/?utm_source=BZprocontent011625&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro</a> data. A year ago, Chevron posted EPS of $3.45 on revenue of $50.67 billion.
