We recently published a list of Why These 15 Oil & Gas Stocks Are Skyrocketing So Far In 2025. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Texas Pacific Land Corporation (NYSE:TPL) stands against other oil & gas stocks that are skyrocketing so far in 2025.
The oil & gas sector has been quite bullish over the past few months as Trump won the election. Some stocks have gained significantly after he entered office.
The Stargate announcement has also driven bullish sentiment as the AI data center expansion will drive significant energy demand. They require 24/7 reliable energy sources and data centers alone are expected to consume 500 Twh globally in 2025. This is up 11% from 2024.
Plus, cold U.S. winters and European export demand have lifted natural gas prices from historic lows, and LNG companies have been gaining traction as global gas trade expands.
Trump’s executive orders have also reversed clean energy mandates, so many investors see this as a good sign that things will go well for oil & gas stocks for the next four years. It’s worth looking into the ones that have gained the most, as these companies are the ones spearheading the sector.
