OXYOccidental Petroleum

Permian producer with a carbon-capture side bet.

No price loaded for OXY yet. We show a price only when the daily feed has actually returned one — we never fill the gap with an estimate.

Where it sits: Occidental Petroleum is a mid-cap Energy company listed on NYSE, included in the S&P 500. It pays a dividend.

How to buy OXY

  1. Pick a broker that accepts your country and offers NYSE listings.
  2. Complete the W-8BEN if you are not a US person, so US dividend withholding is applied at your treaty rate rather than the full 30%.
  3. Fund the account. If your currency is not USD, the conversion charge is usually the largest single cost of the trade.
  4. Place a limit order rather than a market order, especially outside regular US trading hours when spreads widen.
  5. Decide your position size before you buy, not after the price moves.

Frequently asked questions

How do I buy OXY stock?

Open an account with a broker that offers US listings and accepts your country of residence, fund it in USD or accept the conversion cost, then place an order for OXY on NYSE. To own the share itself rather than a derivative of it, use a stockbroker rather than a CFD provider.

Can I buy a fraction of OXY?

Yes, with a broker that supports fractional or dollar-based orders. That matters most when a single share costs more than you want to commit to one position.

Does Occidental Petroleum pay a dividend?

Occidental Petroleum pays a dividend. If you are not a US person, the US withholds tax on that dividend — 30% by default, reduced by treaty when you file a W-8BEN.

What does Occidental Petroleum actually do?

Permian producer with a carbon-capture side bet.

Is OXY a good investment?

We do not answer that, and no site should. What we can tell you is where it sits: Energy, mid-cap, listed on NYSE, a member of SP500. Whether today's price is sensible is a judgement about valuation and your own time horizon.
