MIDLAND, Texas, Oct. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Viper Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:VNOM) (“Viper” or the “Company”), a subsidiary of Diamondback Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ:FANG) (“Diamondback”), today announced it and its operating subsidiary Viper Energy Partners LLC (“OpCo”) completed the previously announced acquisition of certain mineral and royalty interest- owning subsidiaries of Tumbleweed Royalty IV, LLC (“TWR IV”) under the previously reported purchase agreement, dated as of September 11, 2024.

The Fed's Bold Move: Why NOW Is The Time To Load Up On Dividend Stocks

The Fed surprised markets with a 50 basis point rate cut, signaling a focus on economic growth over inflation. Projections show rates falling to 3% in the coming years. Despite sticky inflation, the Fed's shift supports my long-term thesis: economic stability will be prioritized. This makes high-quality dividend stocks attractive investments. Dividend stocks with pricing power, like energy and royalty companies, offer inflation protection. Now is an ideal time to invest in these long-term income plays.

U.S. oil production has surged since 2008, making the country a top energy producer. Political shifts could affect future output, but growth is likely to slow. Producers now prioritize profitability over expansion, reducing CapEx and focusing on free cash flow, making supply growth slower but more sustainable. Energy stocks are undervalued with strong dividend yields. Despite weak oil prices, the long-term fundamentals of these companies remain very attractive.
