Management

Diamondback Energy Travis D. Stice To Step Down As Chief Executive Officer; Kaes Van't Hof To Become New CEO, Effective May 21, 2025

Diamondback Energy's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FANG#NYSE">FANG</a>) short percent of float has risen 7.57% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 6.15 million shares sold short, which is 3.27% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.99 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Diamondback Energy Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1747832421_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Diamondback Energy has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Diamondback Energy's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Diamondback Energy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 8.00%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Shares of energy stocks are trading higher amid a rise in the price of oil after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs. The commodity may be experiencing strength amid escalating conflict between Pakistan and India.

Friends, if we have learned anything from decades in the markets, it is that the energy business runs in cycles.
Always has, always will.
There is a certain rhythm to these things.
Boom, bust, consolidate, repeat.
What separates the winners from the also-rans is not how they perform when crude hits $100, but the decisions they make when the storm clouds gather.
Diamondback Energy&#8217;s (Ticker: FANG) latest letter to shareholders reads like a textbook case of smart management facing reality head-on. No sugar coating, no fancy consultant-speak &#8211; just the cold hard facts about our energy markets.
CEO Travis Stice did not mince words about the current environment, noting that &#8220;on an inflation-adjusted basis, there have only been two quarters since 2004 where front month oil prices have been as cheap as they are today.&#8221; That is a sobering reality check.
This is not just another dip in the cycle.
We are witnessing what could be a fundamental shift in American oil production. The shale revolution that transformed our national energy landscape is entering a new phase, one where easy growth is no longer the name of the game.
Diamondback believes we are at a &#8220;tipping point for U.S. oil production at current commodity prices.&#8221;
The numbers back this up.
U.S. frac crew counts already down about 15% this year with the Permian Basin crew count down approximately 20% from January peaks. The oil-directed rig count is expected to drop almost 10% by the end of Q2 with further declines anticipated.
What separates good management from great management is knowing when to tap the brakes. Rather than chasing volume in a weakening price environment, Diamondback is making the prudent choice.
They are reducing their 2025 capital budget by about $400 million (10%) to $3.4-$3.8 billion and dropping three rigs and one completion crew. As Stice colorfully explained: &#8220;We are taking our foot off the accelerator as we approach a red light. If the light turns green before we get to the stoplight, we will hit the gas again, but we are also prepared to brake if needed.&#8221;
This is exactly what shareholders should demand, capital discipline when markets weaken. Too many energy companies have destroyed billions in shareholder value by drilling their way through downturns, hoping prices would recover.
Hope, friends, is not a strategy.
In a cyclical business, balance sheet strength separates the survivors from the casualties. Diamondback understands this fundamental truth.
The company had approximately $15.7 billion of gross debt after the Double Eagle acquisition, but they are systematically reducing this through Free Cash Flow, non-core asset sales, and opportunistic bond repurchases.
They have already repurchased about $220 million of long-dated bonds for just $167 million in Q2 &#8211; buying their debt back at a 25% discount.
This is textbook value investing applied to corporate finance, using market volatility to strengthen the balance sheet at a discount.
What impresses me most about Diamondback&#8217;s approach is their clear-eyed realism about current market conditions combined with the financial flexibility to navigate through them. They are not panicking, nor are they ignoring the warning signs. They are making the tough but necessary adjustments that will position them to thrive when the cycle eventually turns.
As Diamondback reduces activity to preserve capital while maintaining production levels through efficiency gains, they are showing exactly the kind of approach that creates lasting shareholder value through market cycles.
In the energy business, it is always about cycles.
Diamondback is not the only energy company taking this approach.
Matador Resources (Ticker: MTDR) recently announced that it was taking a measured approach, announcing a modest reduction from nine drilling rigs to eight by mid-2025. This adjustment will reduce capital spending by $100 million, bringing their full-year drilling, completing and equipping budget to $1.275 billion.
If you have followed my investment approach over the years, you know I prioritize balance sheet strength above all else. When storms hit, financial flexibility is what keeps companies afloat.
Matador has clearly embraced this philosophy as well, repaying $190 million in credit facility borrowings during Q1 alone. They have also monetized approximately $440 million in non-core assets through smart divestitures by selling their 19% ownership in Piñon Midstream for around $115 million and divesting Eagle Ford positions for about $30 million.
Cutting back on activity and fortifying the balance sheet is a smart play right now. Diamondback and Matador are putting shareholders first and building a margin of safety.
Diamondback is buying back debt and has also repurchased over $800 million in stock so far this year.
Matador has been repaying debt and just announced a new $400 million buyback program.
Insiders at both companies have made open market purchases recently.
At Matador, insider activity has been particularly robust with six different insiders buying stock in the last month.
Executives at both companies own a significant amount of stock so there is plenty of skin in the game.
It is also worth noting that 95% of all Matador employees participate in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan.
Prudent operational choices, debt repurchases and payoffs, stock buybacks, dividends and skin in the game.
It is a cornucopia of good decisions and practices at both Diamondback and Matador. These are factors that are usually well rewarded by the market over time.

Alpha Buying: Smart Cuts and Big Payoffs in the Oil Patch

A rebound in oil prices may be closer than many expect, especially if diplomatic efforts between the U.S. and China yield even modest progress, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ed-yardeni">Wall Street strategist Ed Yardeni.</a>
In a note shared Thursday, Yardeni said a potential turning point for crude could emerge from the convergence of declining U.S. shale output and rising expectations for global demand recovery, particularly if trade tensions ease.
&#8220;Headlines about US and Chinese diplomats meeting to discuss tariffs may indicate that cooler heads have prevailed; neither side wants to be held responsible for causing an economic downturn,&#8221; Yardeni said.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Crude Extends Deep Slide As OPEC Raises Output More Than Expected</h3>
Crude oil prices — tracked by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) — have dropped 17% year-to-date. Brent crude recently slipped into the low $60s and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) tumbling to $58.
Notably, most of that decline has come in just the past month. Since Donald Trump announced sweeping tariffs on April 2, crude has plunged 18%, reflecting growing fears of a demand shock.
OPEC+ rattled markets last weekend by unveiling a surprise production boost of 411,000 barrels per day in June — three times the volume expected by analysts.
An influx of supply and uncertainty over global demand has only added pressure to fragile oil prices.
The cartel had previously pledged to gradually unwind 2.2 million barrels per day of cuts through late 2026. But that timeline has collapsed. Nearly 960,000 barrels per day will return to the market by the end of June, with another sizable increase expected in July.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Shale Pullback May Tighten US Supply</h3>
While OPEC boosts output, U.S. shale producers are reacting to low prices by cutting spending. 
A recent Dallas Fed survey of 81 exploration and production firms found that drilling becomes uneconomical below $61 to $70 per barrel, depending on the location.
Rig counts have steadily declined in step with crude prices. Though technological advances have helped maintain output, the ceiling for productivity gains may have been reached.
"Today, geologic headwinds outweigh the tailwinds provided by improvements in technology and operational efficiency," said Travis Stice, CEO of Diamondback Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FANG#NASDAQ">FANG</a>), in a May 5 shareholder letter.
Diamondback plans to lower capital expenditures to $3.4 billion–$3.8 billion, from previous guidance of up to $4.2 billion. The company will cut three rigs and one completion crew this quarter. If oil climbs above $65 per barrel, operations could ramp up again, Stice noted. But for now, the focus is on conserving cash.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trade Talks Could Shift Demand Outlook</h3>
The wildcard in the oil market is demand—and that depends heavily on geopolitics. 
This week, markets were encouraged by news that U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet China's Vice Premier He Lifeng in Switzerland on May 10–11 to discuss tariffs.
Yardeni said the US-China meeting of representatives &#8220;may indicate that progress to reduce tariffs on both sides can occur before lasting economic damage is done. &#8220;
&#8220;That would, of course, be good for oil demand and oil prices,&#8221; he added.

Wall Street edged lower by midday Tuesday as uncertainty surrounding trade policies lingered, with investors adopting a cautious approach ahead of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/federal-reserve">Wednesday&#8217;s Federal Reserve meeting.</a>
In a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, President Donald Trump suggested the U.S. may soon begin renegotiating the USMCA. He noted that China is eager to negotiate due to its struggling economy, driven by a lack of U.S. trade, but emphasized the talks would take place &#8220;at the right time.&#8221;
Trump kept his trade stance unclear, suggesting that while some agreements may be signed, there is no obligation to finalize any, and dismissed repeated questions about the number of deals in progress.
The S&amp;P 500 dipped 30 points, or 0.6%, to 5,610, on track for its second consecutive negative session after nine straight gains. The Nasdaq 100 dropped 0.8%, while the Russell 2000 slipped 1%.
Ten of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sectors were in the red, with utilities as the only sector in the green. The U.S. dollar fell, extending its losses for a third straight session.
Commodities saw a broad rally, with oil prices surging 3.6%, pushing WTI above $59, following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45224883/oil-soars-above-59-as-middle-east-airstrikes-jolt-markets">Israeli airstrikes in Yemen</a>. Gold also rallied, climbing 2.4% to above $3,400 per ounce amid heightened geopolitical tensions.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) reversed Monday's gains, slipping 0.4% to $94,375.

Wall Street kicked off the week with a cautious tone, as major stock indices hovered near the flatline by midday in New York. Investors digested fresh signs of inflationary pressure in the services sector, raising doubts about near-term rate cuts and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">weighing on risk appetite.</a>
The ISM Services PMI for April pointed to only marginal growth, the slowest since late 2023, while the index for prices paid surged to its highest reading in more than two years, reflecting a sharp rise in input costs amid renewed trade disruptions tied to tariffs announced last month by President Donald Trump.
The S&amp;P 500 slipped 0.2% to 5,670, while the Nasdaq 100 matched the decline to 20,050. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, however, managed a modest 0.2% gain. If the S&amp;P 500 closes higher, it would mark its tenth consecutive session of gains, the longest winning streak since September 1995.
Rising bond yields pressured equities, with the 10-year Treasury yield climbing 4 basis points to 4.35%, and the 30-year yield up at 4.83%.
Speaking at the Milken Institute, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the U.S. was nearing agreements on new trade deals, potentially as soon as this week. He indicated that 17 trading partners, excluding China, had presented strong proposals, and suggested that meaningful progress with China could also emerge in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, oil prices dropped 2% to $57 a barrel following OPEC+'s signal of a 411,000 bpd production hike starting in June, with further increases possible over the summer.
Gold rallied 2%, on track for its strongest session in two weeks, while Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) held steady near $94,000.

Stocks Pause Gains As Treasury Yields Rise: What's Driving Markets Monday?

WTI crude oil futures slipped nearly 2% on Monday after OPEC+ announced it will increase production output by 411,000 barrels per day in June. This follows similar increases in April and May, bringing the total additional supply for those three months to 960,000 bpd and reversing about 44% of the voluntary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45190245/asia-and-europe-markets-mixed-gold-rallies-oil-slides-on-opec-output-hike-global-markets-today-while-us-slept">cuts made since 2022.</a>
What to Know: Saudi Arabia drove the decision to increase output. The country aims to discipline OPEC+ members like Iraq and Kazakhstan for exceeding their quotas and regain market share after years of output restraint. 
Read Next: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45180224/these-ev-makers-could-shine-if-musk-leaves-tesla?utm_source=articleShare">These EV Makers Could Shine If Musk Leaves Tesla&nbsp;</a>
Oil prices fell sharply in response to the OPEC+ production increase despite earlier news of escalating tensions in the Middle East and optimism over the possibility of trade negotiations between the U.S. and China. WTI crude oil futures hovered just below $57 per barrel and Brent crude oil futures were at $60 per barrel, according to Trading Economics.&nbsp;
The United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) ETF, tracking the daily price movements of WTI crude delivered to Cushing, Oklahoma, was down 1.91% at the time of publication.&nbsp;
Why It Matters: U.S. oil producers struggle to maintain profitability when the price of oil falls below $65 per barrel.&nbsp;
Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FANG#NASDAQ">FANG</a>) stated in an April <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/04/16/3062890/0/en/Diamondback-Energy-Inc-Provides-Operational-Update-for-the-First-Quarter-of-2025.html">operational update</a> that it is "closely monitoring the macro environment" and is prepared to reduce drilling and development activity if low oil prices persist. A reduction in drilling would help maximize free cash flow and protect the company's financial health in a weaker price environment.&nbsp;
Diamondback Energy reports its first-quarter results after Monday's closing bell, along with Talos Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TALO#NYSE">TALO</a>) and Coterra Energy, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTRA#NYSE">CTRA</a>). Investors will be watching the reports and earnings call for the companies' outlooks on commodity markets, breakeven prices and potential activity reductions if weak prices persist.&nbsp;
