Geopolitical Impact: The capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro by U.S. forces is a significant geopolitical event.
Chevron's Position: Despite the geopolitical shock, Chevron's stock is unlikely to be significantly affected in the near term due to its limited exposure to Venezuela.
Venezuela's Role: Chevron's involvement in Venezuela is historically unique but constitutes a small part of its overall global operations.
Political Constraints: The company's operations in Venezuela are tightly constrained and politically mediated, limiting potential impacts on its broader portfolio.
