Chevron U.S.A., a subsidiary of Chevron Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVX#NYSE">CVX</a>), announced its intention to enter the lithium market last week by acquiring lease rights to approximately 125,000 net acres spanning northeast Texas and southwest Arkansas.
The rights, acquired from TerraVolta Resources and East Texas Natural Resources, give the firm access to the Smackover Formation – a geologic unit rich in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/lithium" rel="noreferrer noopener">lithium-bearing brine</a>.
"This acquisition represents a strategic investment to support energy manufacturing and expand U.S.-based critical mineral supplies," <a target="_blank" href="https://www.chevron.com/newsroom/2025/q2/chevron-enters-domestic-lithium-sector-to-support-us-energy-security" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a> Jeff Gustavson, president of Chevron New Energies.

"Establishing domestic and resilient lithium supply chains is essential not only to maintaining U.S. energy leadership but also to meeting the growing demand from customers. This opportunity builds on many of Chevron's strengths, including subsurface resource development and value chain integration," he added.
The Smackover Formation is famous for its high lithium content and established infrastructure. The brine, a byproduct of oil and gas production, makes diversification particularly appealing for oil majors looking to expand into other markets without straying too far from their core expertise. The repurposing of these brine reservoirs presents both a low-carbon opportunity and a cost-effective path into the critical minerals sector.
Chevron plans to employ <a target="_blank" href="https://lithium.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Direct-Lithium-Extraction-DLE-An-introduction-ILiA-June-2024-v.1-English-web.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">direct lithium extraction</a> (DLE) technologies to process the brine. Unlike conventional methods, which rely on vast evaporation ponds that require months and consume large amounts of land and water, DLE utilizes advanced materials to extract lithium ions from brine selectively.
The technology promises a faster, more efficient extraction process with a smaller environmental footprint. While DLE is still an emerging technique, it's gaining traction among energy giants aiming to modernize domestic lithium production.
Through this effort, Chevron has joined another domestic oil major, ExxonMobil (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XOM#NYSE">XOM</a>), which is advancing its own <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/02/37182798/exxons-lithium-experiment-could-be-winner-for-oil-company-state-of-arkansas" rel="noreferrer noopener">DLE project in Arkansas</a> through the subsidiary Mobil Lithium.
Exxon acquired 485 square kilometers of Smackover acreage in 2023 and aims to supply enough lithium for one million electric vehicles per year by 2030. The company has already inked a preliminary supply agreement with battery manufacturer SK On.
Despite lithium prices plunging from a high of $80,000 per ton in 2022 to around $8,400 today, the interest from Chevron, ExxonMobil, and others signals a longer-term bet.
These oil majors are acquiring lease rights and investing in capital expenditures during the market downturn, positioning themselves to be key suppliers when the rebound arrives.

Chevron Joins Lithium Race With 125,000-Acre Texas-Arkansas Deal

The shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) climbed 1.50% during Monday&#8217;s pre-market session, after it unveiled its Robotaxi in Austin, marking a significant milestone in the self-driving taxi industry in the United States.
What Happened: The launch event, which&nbsp;took place on Sunday in Austin&#8217;s South&nbsp;Congress neighborhood, featured&nbsp;over 10 Tesla Model Y&nbsp;Robotaxis. The event was exclusive, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46045542/tesla-launches-robotaxi-in-austin-elon-musk-calls-it-a-culmination-of-a-decade-of-hard-work">social media influencers</a> as the main riders, who used a dedicated app to book their rides.
Tesla had safety monitors&nbsp;in the front seat during&nbsp;the rides, although the extent of their control over the Robotaxi, which was operating on Unsupervised FSD, was not confirmed.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, celebrated the launch on social media, describing it as the&nbsp;&#8220;culmination of a decade of&nbsp;hard work&#8221;. He further revealed that both the AI Chip and&nbsp;the software team responsible for&nbsp;the Robotaxi were built entirely within Tesla.
Additionally, Tesla also announced its plans to invest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46046720/tesla-doubles-down-on-us-elon-musk-plans-another-8-billion-investment-after-spending-nearly-10-billion-in-2024">$8 billion in manufacturing in the U.S. in 2025</a>, after investing $10 billion in 2024.
Why It Matters: The launch of the Robotaxi comes as Tesla has been hinting at its entry into the self-driving taxi market to compete with companies like&nbsp;Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)&nbsp;Waymo and Amazon.com Inc.&#8217;s&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox.
Meanwhile, Tesla&nbsp;has been under the scrutiny&nbsp;of U.S. safety regulators, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reviewing the company&#8217;s responses regarding the performance of its Full Self-Driving (FSD) system in adverse weather conditions. Notably, former Tesla AI Chief&nbsp;Andrej Karpathy&nbsp;recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46046691/ex-tesla-ai-chief-andrej-karpathy-says-self-driving-still-isnt-solved-after-a-decade">expressed skepticism</a>&nbsp;about the industry&#8217;s ability to solve the challenge of autonomous driving. 
Earlier, Wedbush analyst&nbsp;Dan Ives&nbsp;had&nbsp;predicted a transformative future&nbsp;for Tesla, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/46034667/teslas-ai-future-is-worth-1-trillion-says-dan-ives-golden-era-of-autonomous-begins-with-robotaxi-launch">valuing its AI</a> and autonomous driving technology at a staggering $1 trillion.

Tesla Stock Climbs Nearly 2% In Monday Pre-Market: What's Going On?

Steve Jobs once likened a high-performing team to "common stones" spinning in a rock tumbler, noisy, abrasive and ultimately polished to brilliance.
What Happened: The anecdote, recorded in a 1995 interview for PBS's "Triumph of the Nerds" and rediscovered after his death, captures what the Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) co-founder saw as the alchemy of collaboration.
Jobs told <a href="https://sameerbajaj.com/jobs/">interviewer</a> Bob Cringely that, as a boy, a widower neighbor showed him a homemade tumbler, "a motor and a coffee can and a little band between them," filled with "regular old ugly rocks," water and grit. After a night of clattering, the stones emerged "amazingly beautiful," he recalled.
The tumbling, he said, mirrors "incredibly talented people bumping up against each other, having arguments, having fights sometimes, making some noise" until both ideas and individuals are refined. Jobs, then running NeXT and poised to return to Apple, argued that the best companies court constructive friction. &#8220;…Working together, they polish each other and they polish the ideas,&#8221; he remarked.

According to an NBC <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/better/careers/what-steve-jobs-taught-me-about-debate-workplace-n732956">article</a> from 2017, former colleagues say Jobs organized project rooms so engineers and designers could not avoid debate, a practice later echoed in Apple's iPhone and Pixar's story-brain sessions.
Why It Matters: Steve Jobs routinely engineered tension to sharpen ideas, whether by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45943213/steve-jobs-shared-this-work-habit-with-elon-musk-and-jeff-bezos-says-pixar-exec-but-vows-never-to-repeat-it">ringing Pixar colleagues</a> "at any time, day or night, three in the morning" and expecting instant answers, a habit Pete Docter says he now refuses to copy.
His intolerance for half-measures surfaced again this month when tech watchers joked that Jobs would "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45852236/steve-jobs-would-have-fired-everyone-apples-liquid-glass-in-ios-26-gets-roasted-online-dan-ives-calls-wwdc-2025-a-yawner">have fired everyone</a>" over a lackluster iOS interface, an exaggeration that nonetheless echoed stories of him dismissing teams that failed to hit the mark on the first iPhone's glass swap and other last-minute pivots.
Yet the same razor-edged perfectionism often came wrapped in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45989119/steve-jobs-once-gave-a-secretary-a-brand-new-jaguar-out-of-the-blue-here-is-why-the-apple-co-founder-was-so-generous">jolts of generosity</a> meant to keep morale high. Former quality chief Ron Givens recalls Jobs buying a tardy secretary a new Jaguar on the spot, a reward delivered only after a public grilling about her commitment.

The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady at 4.25%-4.50% during Wednesday&#8217;s June meeting, with Chair Jerome Powell signaling no urgency to cut rates as officials monitor potential tariff-driven inflation impacts. 
What Happened: Sage Advisory managing partner Thomas Urano <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/video/us-equities-dont-fed-cut-201945498.html">told</a> Yahoo Finance that while equity markets may not require rate cuts, the bond market could benefit from easing to move higher.
&#8220;I don't think the market needs a rate cut. The bond market might need one to move higher from here, but I'm not convinced the equity market does,&#8221; Urano said. 
Powell acknowledged &#8220;encouraging&#8221; inflation data but raised the Fed&#8217;s median core inflation forecast to 3.1% from 2.8% in March, attributing the increase to expected tariff effects. 
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) declined slightly following the announcement.

Why It Matters: Urano noted the Fed expects economic growth to rebound in the second quarter before settling into a &#8220;slightly below average growth rate&#8221; in the mid-1.4% to 1.5% range for 2025. This modest growth outlook may not support rising equity multiples but could position the bond market for potential Fed easing in 2026.
The 10-year Treasury yield currently trades at 4.37%. Urano expects the benchmark to remain between 4% and 4.5% for an extended period, while anticipating the two-year note around 4% could rally if the Fed shifts policy lower toward its projected 3.25%-3.50% target range.

U.S. Secretary of State&nbsp;Marco Rubio&nbsp;has called on&nbsp;China to prevent Iran from&nbsp;shutting down the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial trade route for global crude oil. Rubio&#8217;s warning comes amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
What Happened: Rubio called on the Chinese government, which has close ties with Iran, to step in. &#8220;I encourage the Chinese government in Beijing to call them about that, because they heavily depend on the Straits of Hormuz for their oil,&#8221; Rubio <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6374706927112">said</a> during a Fox News interview.  
&#8220;It's economic suicide for them if they do it.&nbsp; And we retain options to deal with that,&#8221; added Rubio.
China is Iran&#8217;s primary oil customer and maintains a friendly relationship with the country.
Following U.S. airstrikes on three key nuclear sites, Iran&#8217;s foreign minister warned that the Islamic Republic &#8220;reserves&nbsp;all options to defend its&nbsp;sovereignty.&#8221; Iran&#8217;s parliament has backed the idea of&nbsp;closing the Strait of Hormuz,&nbsp;but the final decision lies with Iran&#8217;s national security council.
The Strait of Hormuz is a vital trade route, with approximately 20 million barrels of crude oil passing through it daily, accounting for 20% of global consumption. If the Strait were to close for an extended period, oil prices could soar above $100 per barrel, according to experts.
Why It Matters: The recent U.S. strikes on Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities have sparked concerns about the potential repercussions on global oil prices. China, a key player in this scenario, has&nbsp;warned of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46044009/us-iran-tensions-escalate-as-iran-threatens-hormuz-closure-potentially-rattling-global-oil-markets">spiraling escalation</a>&nbsp;in the Middle East and demanded an immediate ceasefire at the UN. This situation has the potential to significantly impact global oil prices, as market analysts and traders assess the situation.
Earlier, the CEO of Shell,&nbsp;Wael Sawan, had&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/06/46014138/shell-ceo-warns-of-huge-impact-on-global-trade-if-the-strait-of-hormuz-is-blocked-amid-israel-iran-conflict-we-need-to-set-actions-for-a-new-reality">expressed concern</a>&nbsp;over the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, warning of a potential &#8220;huge impact on global trade.&#8221; The Strait of Hormuz, a major artery for the world&#8217;s oil trade, is of strategic importance, and any blockade could send shockwaves through the energy market.
Meanwhile, energy analytics firm&nbsp;Kpler stated that oil prices may surge between 7-10% post US airstrikes on Iran but it may not &#8216;last&#8217;.
China&#8217;s response to the U.S.&#8217;s call and the subsequent actions in the region will be closely watched by the global community, especially given China&#8217;s significant role in the global oil trade.

What Happened: The busy airspace between Iran, Iraq and the Mediterranean has been largely empty since June 13 as Israel launched an attack on Iran, Reuters reported on Monday.
However, several airlines, including Singapore Airlines, Air France KLM, Finnair, and Kazakhstan's Air Astana, have canceled flights to busy airports in the Middle East, such as Dubai, Riyadh, and Doha, the report suggests.
Despite this, some airlines like British Airways are resuming flights to Dubai and Doha, the report added.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as mounting tensions between the U.S.-Israel and Iran have already led to United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and American Airlines Group Inc.

Several Airlines Cancel Flights To Dubai, Riyadh, Doha After US-Iran Tensions Rattle Global Air Travel: Report

In a bold departure from conventional advice, Ben Horowitz, co-founder of Andreessen Horowitz, once urged Columbia engineering graduates in 2015 to reject the idea of &#8220;following your passion&#8221; and instead focus on the value they can contribute to the world.
What Happened: In 2015, peaking at the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science commencement, Horowitz told students, "Don't follow your passion."
He explained that while many successful people say that they love what they do, the reverse may be true—they may love what they do because they became successful.
"The first tricky thing about passions is they're hard to prioritize," Horowitz said, adding that it is difficult to figure out which a person is more passionate about: math or engineering? Video games or K-pop?

He also pointed out that passions evolve, noting that what someone is passionate about at 21 may not hold the same weight at 40—"true for both boyfriends and career choices," he quipped.
Horowitz warned that people often aren't particularly good at their passions, referencing some American Idol participants who love singing but fall short of professional standards. What he meant was, just because you love something doesn't mean you should do it for a living.
Instead, he urged graduates to focus on what they're good at and how they can contribute to the world. "What you take out of the world over time &#8230; is much less important than what you put into the world," he stated, adding, "My recommendation would be to follow your contribution. Find the thing that you&#8217;re great at, put that into the world, contribute to others, help the world be better and that is the thing to follow."

Why It's Important: Horowitz's message stands in contrast to business titans like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffett and Kevin O'Leary, all of whom have publicly advised aspiring entrepreneurs to pursue their passions.
Buffett once advised students <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44065860/warren-buffetts-unconventional-career-advice-dont-save-your-passion-for-later-its-like-saving-up-sex-for-you">not to take jobs just for resume value</a> or slightly higher pay, but to work for people or organizations they admire. He shared a story about an Ivy League graduate who chose a consulting job to build a &#8220;perfect resume&#8221; instead of pursuing his passion.
When asked when he'd follow his true interests, the graduate said "someday," prompting Buffett to compare that mindset to "saving up sex for your old age"—a warning against postponing what you truly want in life.
Amazon founder ​​Bezos has also said that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39563534/jeff-bezos-reveals-the-one-secret-to-success-you-can-have-a-job-or-you-can-have-a-career-or">following one's passion is key to true success</a> and fulfillment. In a speech at the George W. Bush Presidential Center's Forum on Leadership, he urged people to turn their passions into careers, not by waiting for purpose to appear, but through hard work, dedication and resilience.
&nbsp;O'Leary, investor and Shark Tank personality, also believes that when you love what you do, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41947081/kevin-oleary-says-great-entrepreneurs-and-great-leaders-want-to-get-up-in-the-morning-and-get-to-work-heres-what-he-says-drives-them">it doesn't feel like work</a>. Last year, he shared that for great entrepreneurs and leaders, pursuing their passion is an expression of who they truly are—it's part of their soul and identity.
The life of Musk is a testament to the power of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/22/07/28124535/5-lessons-we-can-learn-from-elon-musk-to-build-a-better-future-for-ourself-for-our-friends-and-famil">passion-driven success</a>. From a young age, he was deeply interested in technology and engineering. In his entrepreneurial journey, the Tesla CEO <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46020247/before-the-mars-dream-and-multi-billion-dollar-ventures-elon-musk-just-wanted-a-job-at-netscape-heres-what-he-told-the-ai-generation-about-that">continued to follow his passion</a>, namely things like electric vehicles and sending humans to Mars.
