Just would have made more sense to buy tomorrow morning. Buying today means you get the dividend depending on your tax situation you would have to pay tax on it or it would at least come of your tax free allowance. But mainly the share price will drop at leases 7p in the morning so better to buy tomorrow.
Agreed Happy - here we are sitting on a seriously undervalued portfolio of assets and potentials, SP collapsing, no MD(President) …. someone in the industry must have noticed how vulnerable this lil’ old limey outfit is right now.
I wouldn't have thought so, not unless something on a world scale happens.
The other side of a fiver should be the target
Yep - why not - if I got what I deem to be a good price?
Uncle Doug did you actually buy the day before ex div date??
A little smug, no?
Got out earlier this year @537p, back in today @479p. Rinse and repeat.
Unfortunately, that's the risk with trading, things can go VERY wrong. I've had MANY a bad trades over the years with the biggest loss being an eye watering 80K :)
It's a hard pill to swallow to accept a loss but it happens to the best of us.
Good luck with the future trades mate.
Bought 17 October slice back today for *479p ( approx 14% , 3 weeks )
558p was the high on the 18th lucky as I rarely get the top or the bottom.
I like this from a poster here today.
" I supposes you could call me a ten year trader as I buy on the boom bust cycles."
The question is will we see any where near the £6 this side of Christmas.
Is the OP being walked down so Biden can fill his SPR on the cheap ?
Kpa, Lol I did the same thing in the 09 crash and bought 34,000 Taylor Wimpey shares for pennies.
I’m not moaning I’m seeking advice from hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me, which wouldn’t be hard because I don’t want to stuff up and lose it all.
Disappointing SP but I'm comfortable holding. Operations and cashflow are excellent even if SP is not. Upstream pipeline is outstanding.
I find the silence and drift very strange especially as Exxon said recently they are on the prowl for another acquisition in the "near term" according to their FD. I agree an offer is very unlikely given Exxon need to close / integrate PXD.
However, I have a feeling that something is afoot behind the scenes. ExxonMobil are hugely ambitious so you would write them off at your peril.
All IMHO DYOR
Happy
You made more than 100 % profit stop moaning.

The thing is I bought 4200 Shell shares for £9.60 but, sold half at £25.90 a month ago just before it shot up. Bummer I know! So I haven’t been able to get back in and thought maybe I should add to my smaller BP holding. I am a pensioner and not a day trader but, I supposes you could call me a ten year trader as I buy on the boom bust cycles.
My dilemma is do I buy now and get the divi, or wait a few day’s when hopefully the sp will of dropped a bit more.
I've bought many of the real dips and held for a good return, even see today's S.P as a safe bet and I'll be taking the dividend on the full 9000 I once again hold.

Bp always expect the unexpected
I am holding through all the dips
How ever long it takes
My target is £6 +

I've been here that long and gotten so far infront, it doesn't worry me any longer.
Most of my previous investments have been the same and I took full advantage of rising rates by taking out 4 fixed bonds.
Don't panic don't panic lol
I actively trade BP, and am currently under as I have been repeatedly over the last 12 months trades. On every one of those trades I made a decent return, as I expect to do with this trade. Sentiment changes very quickly, today it feels like BP is going to £4.50, 2 weeks ago it felt like £6 was on the way.
No mad we done research and in the last 20 years there has only been 1 example of the BP share price rising on ex div date if i remember correctly. But please you must do your own research.
I don't think its low expectations Mr gringo I think its just lack of understanding.
Higher interest rates take about 6-18 months to filter though so in reality we are only feeling the impact of the first few rate hikes and I shouldn't have to explain what higher interest rate are going to accomplish, if you don't know that you shouldn't be investing.
Hey Spights,
Do you think the SP will drop much more after ex div
This is what we should be thinking because others are saying it.
'For all the uncertainty over BP’s strategy, we can be confident that share price gains lie ahead'
Enjoy your dividend folks!
Thanks Halma
Let's see how that pans out
I predicted £5-10 and was thinking I'm nowhere near after recent flirts over the £5-50.
Good luck with your investing Y11
