美參議院多數派領袖促FTC叫停雪佛龍(CVX.US)併購Hess(HES.US)交易
美國民主黨籍參議院多數派領袖舒默在社交平台X貼文，促請聯邦貿易委員會(FTC)叫停油企雪佛龍(CVX.US)對同業Hess(HES.US)的530億美元併購。他指委員會應站在消費者一方並停止有關交易。 雪佛龍去年10月同意併購Hess以擴大在美石油業涉足，並在同業埃克森美孚(XOM.US)的圭亞那油氣田佔取權益。 舒默早前要求增加審查油企併購，並指油企巨擘併購將導致消費者面臨油價上升。(fc/w)~ 阿思達克財經新聞 網址: www.aastocks.com

Schumer urges FTC to hit the brakes on $53 billion Chevron-Hess merger
"The FTC should side with consumers and pump the breaks on this deal," Schumer said in a post on social media platform X, adding that the deal would give oil majors more leverage to raise gas prices. In October last year, Chevron agreed to buy Hess for $53 billion in stock to gain a bigger U.S. oil footprint and a stake in rival Exxon Mobil's massive Guyana discoveries. Schumer has previously also called for greater scrutiny of mega oil mergers as he along with 22 other Democratic senators wrote to the FTC in November last year, saying multi-billion dollar acquisitions by oil and gas giants Exxon and Chevron could lead to higher prices for consumers.
