A | Chevron is buying Hess Corp. for $53 billion and it’s not even the biggest acquisition in the energy sector this month as major producers seize the initiative while oil prices surge.Crude prices rose sharply in early 2022 with Russia's invasion of Ukraine and are hovering around $90 per barrel after ticking another 9% higher this year. That has made big drillers cash rich and they are looking for places to invest. The Chevron-Hess deal comes less than two weeks after Exxon Mobil said that it would acquire Pioneer Natural Resources for about $60 billion. Upward pressure on oil prices are being applied from a number of fronts including the war in Ukraine. Oil markets are being stretched by cutbacks in oil production from Saudi Arabia and Russia, and now, a war between Israel and Hamas runs the risk of igniting a broader conflict in the Middle East. While attacks on Israel do not disrupt global oil supply, according to an analysis by the U.S Energy Information Administration, “they raise the potential for oil supply disruptions and higher oil prices.”Chevron said Monday that the acquisition of Hess adds a major oil field in Guyana as well as shale properties in the Bakken Formation in North Dakota. Guyana is a South American country of 791,000 people that is poised to become the world’s fourth-largest offshore oil producer, placing it ahead of Qatar, the United States, Mexico and Norway. It has become a major producer in recent years with oil giants, including Exxon Mobil, China’s CNOOC, and also Hess, squared off in a heated competition for highly lucrative oil fields in northern South America.“This combination is aligned with our objective to safely deliver higher returns and lower carbon,” Chevron Chairman and CEO Mike Wirth said in prepared remarks. “In addition, Hess increases Chevron’s estimated production and free cash flow growth rates over the next five years, and is expected to extend our growth profile into the next decade supporting our plans to increase our peer-leading dividend growth and share repurchases.”=Chevron is paying for Hess with stock. Hess shareholders will receive 1.0250 shares of Chevron for each Hess share. Including debt, Chevron valued the deal at $60 billion. And even with alarms being raised over climate change after a summer of record-smashing temperatures, elevated energy prices have driven more exploration and more drilling, and big payouts for investors. There have been a number of acquisitions focused on U.S. shale fields and another round of consolidation in the energy sector began during the pandemic as big producers sought to cut costs. In the summer of 2020, Chevron announced that it was buying Noble Energy for $5 billion. Chevron made the deal when crude prices were down more than 30% in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. That same year, ConocoPhillips bought shale producer Concho Resources in an all-stock deal valued at $9.7 billion.Last month Britain gave the go-ahead for a major oil and gas project in the North Sea, ignoring warnings from scientists and the United Nations that countries must stop developing new fossil fuel resources if the world is to avoid catastrophic climate change.Chevron said the deal will help to increase the amount of cash given back to shareholders. The company anticipates that in January it will be able to recommend boosting its first-quarter dividend by 8% to $1.63. This would still need board approval. The company also expects to increase stock buybacks by $2.5 billion to the top end of its guidance range of $20 billion per year once the transaction closes.The boards of both Chevron and Hess have approved the deal announced Monday after six months of negotiations, and is targeted to close in the first half of next year. It still needs approval by Hess shareholders. John Hess, the company's CEO, is expected to join Chevron’s board. His family owns a large chunk of Hess. Shares of Chevron Corp., based in San, Ramon, California, declined more than 3% Monday. Share of Hess Corp., based in New York City, fell slightly.。

B | 摘要：被骑士送至黄蜂三天后，施罗德公开回应这笔交易，自曝一个月前已知将被送走，并直言在两位习惯大量单打的同位置球星身边处境艰难。被骑士送至夏洛特黄蜂三天后，丹尼斯-施罗德公开回应这笔交易。他在8月17日见报的采访中透露，自己早在一个月前就知道将被送走，并直言在多诺万-米切尔与詹姆斯-哈登两位习惯大量单打的同位置球星身边，处境"很艰难"。 "当你的位置上有两位传奇，他们习惯自己运球推进并大量单打时，你的处境就会很艰难。"施罗德在采访中说。他自2月交易截止日从萨克拉门托国王转投骑士后，一直处在"极其艰难的角色定位"中。尽管如此，他对克利夫兰的短暂时光总体感到满意，称随队打进东部决赛的感觉"很棒"。骑士在当地时间8月14日（周五）达成交易，将他搭上现金送去黄蜂，换回后卫特雷-曼恩。夏洛特将是施罗德NBA生涯效力的第12支球队。他表示，从竞技角度看，黄蜂是"对我来说更好的处境"："这对我有好处，因为我可以在那里按我平常的方式打球。"黄蜂预计由科比-怀特出任首发控卫，施罗德将成为他的主要替补，球队主帅为查尔斯-李。 32岁的施罗德还期待在黄蜂承担导师角色——球队本届选中的两名德国新秀斯坦巴赫与安德森，都曾代表德国出战国际赛事。"对他们来说，有人可以聊天显然是一种福分。"他说，自己刚进联盟时也希望身边有这样的老将。
