Analysis · PBF · Energy & Transportation
Control Empresarial de Capitales S.A. de C.V., a 10% owner and part of the Slim Family, has continued its pattern of significant share sales, disposing of an additional $27.99 million in PBF Energy stock. This follows previous sales by the Slim Family totaling over $97 million since mid-February and another $48 million by Control Empresarial earlier this month. The ongoing distribution by a major institutional holder, especially after the company reported a net loss of $160.5 million for fiscal year 2025, could signal a lack of conviction or a strategic reduction in exposure, potentially weighing on investor sentiment.
