meoryou,cheers.I wonder why I have never thought about before.cash is safe and I should get a wee return on it.(and mibbe a big yin)

'' chitty-------I have 50,000 pounds worth of PBs. Nothing this month but usually £75 which is nice but a joke really. '' You have persuaded me to do exactly the same.I kept a 50k never be spent on shares pot for extreme emergency. so I have invested. My calcs say £50 /month on average .Heres hoping.My first draw is Sep 2nd.

is fairly ramping up today. 416p atm.

Nobody wants the ruble, it is fixed at an artificial high rate as people who buy gas/oil have to pay in rubles therefore keeping the profit intact.

'' as the shares dilute at a serious pace!'' I think you mean 'concentrate'

New employee share scheme 2021 .( BP intends to offset any shareholder dilution that may result from the plan, a company spokesman said. Employees will not be able to sell the shares before 2025.)

As has been said previously, the employee share scheme is part of the salary package. Don't you think they should be included in the wealth they create?They cannot just buy as many as they like. When I was employed by Exxon it was limited to £125/month.

There are not many peeps who can splash out £120k just to pay power bills.

''even though the hike is small i'' 10% rise is not small.

Not expecting much.How the hell has it come to this ?.The results are as good as they ever will be and we expect nothing.If it goes t***s up tomorrow then there is no point in being invested here.

Jezzoo,why should we not expect a share of the goodies? Looney works for us,he is not our boss.We are making money hand over fist.Are wee too afraid of the proletariat to flash the cash?

I meant the risk off being out on earnings day with the chance of missing a possible good rise.

''A smidge under £4k since Friday is good enough for me'', so you sold/bought 40k shares? well done but it was a helluva risk so close to earnings.

''can someone advise on how to get best price for shares on x-divvy date?''.It's pot luck.The sp will open at the previous days close minus the divi and start from there.SSE went xd 2 days ago, dropped by the divi the some more and today got it back the pre ex d price,As I said pot luck.

''An index linked annuity would get you around 2.8% at the moment. '' Not a great investment considering it's only guaranteed for 5 years , then nowt if you snuff it.

'' Year to date BP have spent $4.494bn buying back 875m shares. So, an average price of $5.14 / £3.95 (ish!) per share.''
So $ 4.5 b spent to basically tread water.

4 billion dollars/573 million shares = $ per share 6.98 , =£5.77p per share yer figures are way out.
