If someone says £10 again I will self combust
Can’t even keep £3.60s rubbish under performance
What’s the excuse today
£10 £10 £10 £10
please self combust !
85 dollars and down
What chance have we
Definitely will be £10!!.
I said.. definitely will be £10!!!
With all the green projects this will definitely hit £10.
Easily £10 all day long sit back and go with the ups and downs or try and day trade and loss the lot. I’m holding for £10
Anna Lisa you put 250k on Vodafone at 1.60 you shouldn’t have the right to comment on share prices. In fact you should have all money taken away and ten put on a strict allowance!
what does Annalisa get as an allowance ?
£10 per week so he can buy 1 bp share lol
Incorrect £2 how’s that for honesty
However my 100k bp profit in 12 months
Covers that
Don’t fret about me I can still afford another £10 share
Ps 201k if you wanted to be exact
Although I keep all my dividends and
Write down the loss by not spending them
And putting it aside
I’ll take the 28% capital loss against a second property sale that rights down another 25k so about a 60k loss today
But I’ll hang on there don’t need the cash
We all lose sometimes but most don’t
Admit it
Trick is having more winners than losers
I always have £10 to look forward to
Then it’s marbella
I fully understand now thanks the mental hospital has allowed wifi for all the long term patients.
You’ve just told the whole world what you have true or not. I wouldn’t but I can tell you I have more then you and don’t hold so many losses.
You also told the world you sold a house to bet on the stock market! Bad bad boy hope you haven’t got any family, selling off there inheritance.
Are people for real predicting / holding for £10 per share? I'd be happy with some meaningful headway being made towards the 55% growth required to get the share price back to levels achieved in 2019! Step by step and review at regular intervals. Let's not get too carried away!!
Zac
How are you sir?
I agreed and sometimes people under estimate what it takes for the share price to heads up. £10 is certainly unrealistic and far fetch but I think 700 can be a reality very easy on second half of next year IF oil price hit above $150 which many analysis now they think possible (if not more)
But even if that doesn't happen I believe even with $75 oil price BP will easily stay way above 600 mark in coming months
The prospect looks really strong and even with short breather and stops the push is upwards strongly IMHO
It might take couple of stops but we will achieve at 500 this year...
All the best
IMHO
Stockready1 - all good, thanks. Hope all's well with you. Nothing has changed from my perspective. I'm still heavily invested in funds and trusts. I aim to hold BP until q2 2022 and will review my position then.
I'm nowhere near as bullish as you are here and will be happy to see somewhere around £4 by the year end, although I don't think that's a given!
Zac,
Thanks for a bit of reality. I take on board stockready’s assessment of the effect of oil price and am myself generally optimistic about prospects. But I think we have to remember that two years ago people were paying £5 for a share returning 32p a year. We are currently getting 16p a year. I think we’ll get back to £5 and beyond but only after a succession of good quarterly results and an indication from the board that the divi increase will not be restricted to the 4% in the current plan. Hopefully, 2nd Nov will be a big step in that direction.

I too should be delighted were the BP share price to reach 400p by the end of 2021. An increase in the dividend would go a long way towards that! However, I expect the Board to pay off debts and buy back shares above all else.
Forget £10 per share, short of war.
Good post tinker
My only response would be that the cash is piling in every day and sat in bank and will be in the eps figure. It will have to make its way back to shareholders somehow it can't just sit there and shareholders go ok.
Returns to shareholders...
Buy backs don't seem to make much difference to the SP that's for sure!...
I'd take a special dividend over that any day!
''I'd take a special dividend over that any day!'' As I have said before, A special divi is fools gold and amounts to a share buyback by another name. If the special divi is a large amount then the share get reconsolidated (ie,you now own a lower amount than before.) If you own more than just a few shares you are now into income tax. Special divi is not so special.
£4.00 gives a 4% yield, which for me represents a ceiling for a company in the oil business and all the associated risks. Renewables will continue to be loss making for many years to come and Looney's credibility and strategy is dependent on a high oil price. I'm cautiously optimistic for the forthcoming results, but while the trading division has bailed BP out in the past, there have been such abnormal pricing patterns I fear one or two of the majors may have made some wrong calls. I just hope its not BP.
