Major instituational investors such as Warren Buffet and Carl Icahn both have major stakes in Occidental Petroleum, with Icahn even owning 10% of the company. Many funds are heavily invested in the growth and success of OXY, backing the company as a result. In mid 2019, Buffett helped finance OXY in their acquisition of Anadarko Petroleum, helping expand their oil ventures in the U.S. In May 2020, three of Icahn's associates were elected to OXY's board, expanding investor interests within the company's management. With such strong backing, OXY has the resources to plow through any liquidity concerns.
