Hyperscaler drinking game continues. First: GE Vernova CEO  says “hyperscalar” at 7:54 a.m. CDT.

Investing: big investors are "doubling down" on oil and gas stocks. Oilprice. Most recent: Warren Buffett buys more OXY.

RBN Energy: E&Ps sustain sector-leading dividend yields despite lower cash flows.

After thoroughly alienating their investor base over more than two decades of boom-and-bust cycles, U.S. E&Ps won investors back in the early 2020s by radically transforming themselves from high-risk to high-yield vehicles. Fueled by surging crude oil and natural gas prices in 2022, producers generated massive free cash flows — and spectacular shareholder returns that topped 10% during the late-2022 peak. Prices and cash flows subsequently retreated, however, and skeptics worried about the sustainability of producers’ high-return strategy. Would debt repayment, dividends and share buybacks sink? In today’s RBN blog, we‘ll review the Q1 2024 cash allocation of the major U.S. E&Ps with a spotlight on current dividend yields.
