Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) is down 4.6% today. Here is some analysis on what might have caused this price movement.
Analysis: The most likely driver is weakness in crude prices, which eased after a reported build in U.S. oil inventories and ahead of the Federal Reserve decision. There does not appear to be a new company-specific announcement driving the selloff, so the move looks mostly tied to commodity-price sensitivity and profit-taking after recent strength in energy shares.
