Today I opened a position in Chevron. I purchased 10 shares at $121.47 giving my portfolio it's 20th position. Chevron has been under some selling pressure as it approached their 2nd quarter earnings and continued to drop after a disappointing 2nd quarter due mostly from lower realized international liquids pricing. Since then the stock has dropped about $5 which doesn't exactly make it undervalued but I think it's fairly valued at this point and in this market that's not bad. Chevron has increased its dividend for 26 consecutive years, making it a dividend champion, i.e. more than 24 years of consecutive increases. It's strong companies that have a serious commitment to their dividend that I strive to hold in my portfolio and I think Chevron exemplifies that.
Chevron is involved in virtually every facet of the energy industry. From exploration to production and transportation of crude oil and natural gas as well as refining , marketing and distribution of transportation fuels and lubricants. Chevron generates power, produces geothermal energy, provides renewable energy, manufactures and sells petrochemical products and energy efficiency solutions.
