Mines in and has been withdrawn for a real mash up that starts this evening
Have a good weekend all.
Gentlemen, Whatever you decide to do with your dividend I would suggest you do not reinvest in BP shares.
Looney does not deserve the loyalty of longstanding share holders.
Shell, Exxon have given firm statements from their CEO's as to their commitment to expanding oil and gas, thus securing future profitability.
Looney needs to follow suit with a full update asap.
Cheers.
Untill he gives us all an update
Few hundred £ on Europa oil & gas for a wee gamble , 30% of wressle production in Lincolnshire, and possibly an Irish play .
Not a recommendation just saying what i done.
Can I get peoples thoughts on the relationship between divi yield and base rate? It's now more attractive to put money in a savings acc vs. the divi yield available on bp/shell. Do you think this is taken into consideration when setting dividend? if not surely this creates downwards pressure on income stocks as the only upside is limited capital appreciation in a potential recession cycle?
Thinking of re-orientating my portfolio away from O&G for the short term
Y11 - now now don't be lazy - just look at the RNS dated 06.06.23 and it will tell you all
How much was the dividend paid today?
Anybody heard the saying give with one had and take with the other?
In my ii account :))))
How many of those suing the energy companies are driving around with IC engines and wrapping their butties in clingfilm
Just goes to show the mentality of the common BP investor.
Do BP manufacturer anything to do with the chem trails which are causing global warming?

Cooler today .
(Reuters) -An Oregon county on Thursday sued Exxon (NYSE:XOM), Chevron (NYSE:CVX), other major oil and coal companies, and industry groups, seeking over $50 billion to counter the harms caused by extreme weather fueled by climate change.
Multnomah County said in the lawsuit filed in state court in Portland that fossil fuel companies and trade groups like the American Petroleum Institute intentionally deceived the public about the dangers of burning their products for decades. It said the companies and trade groups must now help pay for past and future harms from the extreme weather that has resulted, including a 2021 heat wave in the Pacific Northwest that killed dozens.
Rather than acknowledge the dangers of climate change, the lawsuit said the fossil fuel industry worked to undermine the scientific consensus around the problem "with pseudo-science, fabricated doubt, and a well-funded, sustained public relations campaign to promote their spin."
The lawsuit also targets the consulting firm McKinsey, which it said advises major oil companies, including on strategies to downplay or deny the link between greenhouse gas emissions and extreme weather.
Theodore Boutrous, an attorney for Chevron, said in a statement that lawsuits such as the one filed on Thursday are "counterproductive" and distract from advancing effective international policy solutions. He said the county's claims are "baseless" and barred by the U.S. Constitution.
A spokesperson for the American Petroleum Institute called the lawsuit and others like it "meritless" and said the litigation wastes taxpayer resources.
McKinsey did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The legal action follows dozens of lawsuits filed in recent years against the fossil fuel industry by states and municipalities across the U.S. broadly alleging harms from climate impacts including extreme weather.
The American Petroleum Institute and oil companies have said in response to those lawsuits that policies to address climate change should come from the federal executive branch and Congress, not via a patchwork of decisions in court cases across the United States.
The county said Thursday it had already begun experiencing climate-related harms, including from the 2021 “heat dome” that caused temperatures in the county, which includes Portland, to soar to 116 Fahrenheit (46.6 Celsius).
Since the area normally has mild weather, the lawsuit said residents were not equipped with things like air conditioners to handle the elevated temperatures. The county said 69 people in the county died from overheating and the heat wave caused a "crushing economic burden."
The heat wave, and other extreme weather events like wildfires, are a "direct and foreseeable consequence" of the industry's decision to sell fossil fuels for decades despite knowing their harms, according to the lawsuit.
The county is seeking $50 million to repay it for its past efforts to protect public health
I don’t know about other folk (except y11 who just gloats) but my portfolio is down to the same level as last August . The average drop has been about 17% since March. The consolation is that BP is no worse than my other shares.
Tinker
I'm going to blast my dividend this time
Enough of this Bean's on toast malarkey
Fillet mignon incoming! oh a good bottle to wash it down with.
I need it right now
Defo h and l now offer 5.58 fixed for 12 months and 5.55 for 24 months now this will raise again 4 or 5 times. So Defo not a few weeks 2 years minimum oil can’t keep up with dropping price and recession. No country going to want their currency to be devalued so it will be a test to see who can raise their interest rates the highest before they snap their economy.
The warning signs have been there for a good while and when interest rates start to rise, time to go to safer havens
When interest rates go negative, the capital will somehow find it's way back on the stock market.
Blimey, wish I had knowledge like the city men lol lol
A few weeks I’m thinking 24 months
You'll get more and for longer if you sit it out for a few week's
Looks like it's a saver's market and about bloody time
H and l is doing 5.4 percent interest fix for 12 months if anyone is thinking of leaving the casino?
Oops finger not on pulse today,
Missed that one totally.
Forgot that was today.
