TotalEnergies buys 25% stake in offshore Suriname from Moeve
PARIS - TotalEnergies has acquired a 25% stake in Block 53 offshore Suriname from Spanish company Moeve, it said on Friday without giving financial details. The block is adjacent to the $10.5 billion Gran Morgu development, on which Total took a final investment decision in October and which is estimated to hold more than 700 million barrels of recoverable resources. The South American country has yet to produce hydrocarbons, but has ambitions to emulate neighbouring Guyana, where a consortium led by Exxon Mobil has discovered more than 11 billion barrels of recoverable oil and gas. Total said Block 53 contains an oil and gas discovery drilled near the border of Gran Morgu, and will allow for project expansion. Spain's second largest oil company Moeve, formerly known as CEPSA, has sold 70% of its oil production assets since 2022 as part of an 8-billion-euro $9.4 billion) plan to pivot toward low carbon businesses. Houston-based APA, which operates Block 53, holds a 45% stake, while Petronas owns 30%. ($1 = 0.8537 euros)

Court increases jail time for rapist who failed to tell gardaí he was a sex offender
A convicted rapist who was jailed last March for rape has been given more time in custody for having failed to inform authorities he was a sex offender. Randi Gladstone (41), formerly from Guyana, had 19 previous convictions from the UK, for offences including rape, kidnapping, robbery and false imprisonment. Last March he was sentenced at the Central Criminal Court for the rape, sexual assault and false imprisonment of a young woman two weeks after he arrived in the State in August 2023. He had previously been subjected to a deportation order from the UK. The offence occurred in 'budget accommodation' in south Co Dublin. READ MORE On Wednesday, Mr Justice Paul McDermott said Gladstone failed to notify gardaí within seven days that he was a sex offender, which was required by law. Mr Justice McDermott said failure to register as a sex offender carries a maximum sentence of five years' imprisonment. He said Gladstone was 'not really appreciating his obligations to register ... but that doesn't cut it'. Noting the guilty plea, he sentenced Gladstone to six further months in prison. The judge noted Gladstone offended within days of arriving in the State, so he said the six-month sentence should be served on top of the 10-year sentence imposed on him last March. The court heard Gladstone flew from Suriname to Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands and arrived into Ireland on August 11th, 2023. Det Garda Carol Corrigan told Patrick Gageby SC, prosecuting, that Gladstone did not inform gardaí of his address within seven days, as is required by law. The court heard Gladstone dragged a young woman into his room where he raped and falsely imprisoned her. Gladstone was made aware of the accusations against him that August 25th. The court heard he went to Dublin Port and bought a ticket to the UK. He was told he was not allowed back into the UK. He was arrested two days later. Gladstone had been residing in South America for some years and had some work history in construction. He is now serving his sentence in Midlands Prison.

Hess Corporation (HES): A Bull Case Theory
We came across a bullish thesis on Hess Corporation (HES) on Hidden Market Gems' Substack. In this article, we will summarize the bulls' thesis on HES. Hess Corporation (HES)'s share was trading at $140.58 as of 11th June. HES's trailing and forward P/E were 18.95 and 24.21 respectively according to Yahoo Finance. Aerial view of an oil rig in the sea waters, reflecting the company's involvement in the oil and gas markets. Hess Corporation stands out as a resilient veteran in the energy sector, maintaining its growth trajectory despite market volatility and cyclical pressures. Often likened to an old sea wolf, Hess embodies the grit and strategic discipline required to navigate the complexities of global energy markets. The company continues to reaffirm its long-term production and investment outlook, signaling confidence in the durability of its asset base and capital allocation strategy. Currently trading below intrinsic value, Hess presents an attractive opportunity for investors seeking exposure to an eventual energy rebound. Its operational footprint, particularly in high-return regions like the Guyana basin, positions it well for sustained production growth and cash flow generation. Moreover, while traditional hydrocarbons remain its core business, Hess is not ignoring the broader energy transition. The company is gradually integrating renewables and lower-carbon initiatives into its long-term planning, which could catalyze future revaluation as ESG considerations gain more weight among institutional investors. The dual appeal of near-term cash flow strength and long-term optionality in green technologies enhances its risk/reward profile. For investors willing to endure sector volatility, Hess offers a compelling mix of undervaluation, operational momentum, and potential strategic upside in a world that still depends heavily on reliable energy infrastructure. We previously highlighted a bullish thesis on Occidental Petroleum (OXY) by Magnus Ofstad, emphasizing undervaluation, Permian Basin strength, and carbon capture potential. The stock price has appreciated by roughly 4% since our recent coverage. Hidden Market Gems' thesis on Hess Corporation (HES) echoes this optimism, focusing on Guyana-led growth and ESG upside. Both offer energy rebound exposure, with Hess reflecting steadier execution and OXY offering deeper value. Hess Corporation (HES) is not on our list of the 30 Most Popular Stocks Among Hedge Funds. As per our database, 80 hedge fund portfolios held HES at the end of the first quarter which was 92 in the previous quarter. While we acknowledge the risk and potential of HES as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk.

2 Rallying TSX Stocks You'll Wish You Bought Sooner
Written by Jitendra Parashar at The Motley Fool Canada We've all been there – you check a stock you were eyeing, and boom, it's already up 40% or 50% since you first thought about buying it. That sting of 'I should've bought it' hits hard. The good news is, most growth stories aren't over with just one rally. In fact, some TSX stocks that have surged recently still show strong momentum, supported by their improving fundamentals. In this article, let's look at two Canadian stocks that have been rallying, and why it still might not be too late to buy them for the long term. G Mining Ventures (TSX:GMIN) has seen a massive move lately but still has long-term potential written all over it. This gold miner has been up more than 117% in the last year and trades at $18.72 per share with a market cap of about $4.2 billion. G Mining is developing precious metals projects in Brazil and Guyana, anchored by its producing Tocantinzinho mine and the advancing Oko West project. In the March quarter, G Mining produced over 35,500 ounces of gold at an impressive all-in sustaining cost of US$960 per ounce. Despite some seasonal rain impacting its mining activity, the company still delivered strong free cash flow of US$36 million and net profit of US$24.4 million. Notably, its adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) hit US$68.6 million last quarter, showing how well its ramp-up is going. With its production expected to increase through the second half of 2025 as higher-grade ore becomes available, G Mining seems well on track to meet its annual guidance of up to 200,000 ounces. In addition, the company recently released a positive feasibility study for its Oko West project, suggesting an after-tax value of US$2.2 billion and a mine life of over 12 years. For long-term investors seeking exposure to a fast-growing gold producer with exploration upside and strong project economics, G Mining Ventures could be a compelling stock to consider. Another TSX stock that's been gaining solid momentum in 2025 is Aritzia (TSX:ATZ). This company's growth story is hard to ignore right now. The Vancouver-based apparel retailer is known for its portfolio of exclusive fashion brands and strong e-commerce platform. Aritzia stock has surged nearly 79% over the past year and currently trades at $67.44 per share with a market cap of $7.7 billion. In its most recent quarter (ended in February 2025), Aritzia delivered 31.3% YoY (year-over-year) sales growth with the help of strong U.S. demand and e-commerce sales. For the quarter, its adjusted earnings also shot up 156% YoY, and its adjusted EBITDA margin improved to 18% from 10.6%. Notably, the company opened 12 new boutiques in its fiscal year 2025 (ended in February), including a flagship on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue, and it's not slowing down. With its net revenue expected to grow up to 19% in fiscal 2026, Aritzia is leaning into its growth drivers, even as U.S. tariffs add some complexity. For investors looking beyond the short-term market noise, this fashion stock has all the right ingredients for solid upside.
