Exxon Mobil (XOM) Stock

XOM is under investigation due to claims that emails from environmental activists were hacked. The FBI is looking into these allegations, which ExxonMobil describes as conspiracy theories.

XOM has solid fundamentals that lead to high valuations and strong growth expectations, but there is still some uncertainty.

A judge from the U.S. National Labor Relations Board has decided that Exxon Mobil's decision to lock out around 600 union workers at a Texas oil refinery for 10 months during a contract disagreement was lawful.

XOM is not pursuing aggressive drilling, even with Trump's support for energy, and instead is concentrating on careful growth and improving efficiency in shale production.

The FBI is looking into a consultant for Exxon Mobil who has been working with the company for a long time. This investigation is related to the contractor's supposed involvement in a hacking and leaking scheme that affected many of the oil company's main critics, as reported by three sources who know about the situation.

Analysts at UBS think that Exxon Mobil Corp's investments in low carbon markets offer long-term growth potential for the company. They stated, "Exxon's expanding Low Carbon business is one of the five main reasons we believe it is the best stock to hold in our coverage for the next five years."

ExxonMobil's choice to leave Block 52 is part of a larger strategy to review its assets and improve its global investments.

According to a senior executive at Exxon Mobil, U.S. oil and gas producers probably won't significantly boost production with president-elect Donald Trump in office, as companies are prioritizing financial discipline.
