It was speculation of pps rise by some investors, since it seems to be in same class/products/overseas ops of O&G as MUR, nothing to take as more than just guesswork.

finally showed up to prove I wasn't hallucinating: 5:18 PM With Third Point successfully convincing Murphy Oil (MUR) to spin off its U.S. retail business, Deutsche Bank analyst Paul Sankey thinks Occidental Petroleum (OXY) and Hess (HES) likely will be next, since "in both cases, investors have major questions over strategy and execution, and both are trading below NAV.” ConocoPhillips (COP) is viewed as a sleeper pick.
