HF Sinclair Corp's stock rose by 3.86% and reached a 20-day high despite the Nasdaq-100 and S&P 500 declining by 1.20% and 0.61%, respectively.
DDD Partners sold 125,198 shares of HF Sinclair for approximately $6.45 million in Q4, indicating a strategic adjustment in their portfolio. This stake reduction reflects a cautious approach towards energy stocks, even as HF Sinclair reported a strong net income of $403 million in its latest earnings release, showcasing robust cash generation.
The reduction in stake does not suggest a fundamental weakness in HF Sinclair but highlights the importance of timely rebalancing amid cyclical fluctuations in the energy market.
