Russia sees oil price of $45-50 a barrel as "acceptable" - Reuters According to Reuters, Russia thinks a price of $45 to $50 for a barrel of oil is "acceptable" for the global oil market to balance. The comments come ahead of a meeting between the world's biggest oil producers in Doha on April 17. In February, Russia, Venezuela, Qatar and Saudi Arabia agreed a preliminary deal to freeze production at January levels in a bid to tackle the supply glut. Reuters said sources familiar with the matter said: "Now there is discussion of how long production will be frozen and ways to monitor the agreement.

Nice rise.Back in the blue

Bought some

Never sell shell

It's a big buy now I've got over the 14.20 hurdle.

(ShareCast News) - An earnings miss in volatile market conditions is a sure recipe to send your stock price tanking. On 5 November, aerospace and defence engineering group Cobham told shareholders they could expect full-year earnings per share of between 20.1p and 21.7p. In the event, the company delivered 19.5p, sending its shares duly lower by 19.75p to 239.75p, with profits weighed down by further weakness in several markets and a "small technical overshoot" because of a couple of disposals, The Times's Tempus said. A drop in shipping weighed on the marine side of the business and there are less flights around Australia because of low commodity prices. Slowing orders also dragged on cash-flow and sales are expected to be "flattish", scant improvement on the 1% drop in organic revenues seen in 2015. Non-recurring provisions also flattered the bottom line, with profits before tax up by 9% to £280m. Lost orders from telecoms providers will come through but the commercial side is set to remain weak. On the upside, geopolitical concerns should feed strong demand for its missile control systems. At 13 times earnings the valuation on the stock seems "fair", Tempus said.

Similarly, Legal & General (LSE: LGEN) also appears to offer sound long-term total return prospects. It currently yields 6.2% and with dividends being covered 1.4 times by profit, there seem to be bright prospects for dividend growth. In fact, Legal & General is expected to increase shareholder payouts by 7.7% next year, which should easily beat inflation and provide the company's shares with a positive catalyst. As well as bright dividend prospects, Legal & General remains a solid value play. Its bottom-line growth forecasts of 9% this year and a further 6% next year don't appear to be fully factored-in to its share price, with Legal & General currently trading on a P/E ratio of just 11.4. That's significantly lower than the FTSE 100's P/E ratio of around 13 and shows that while investor sentiment in Legal & General may be rather weak following its decline of 13% since the start of the year, it remains a very appealing buy for long-term investors.

Down a bit here hope it comes back a bit soon.Ex div 28 Feb .8.13 p per share.

Insurer and asset manager Legal & General has seen its shares under pressure this year. The market has been concerned about the company's corporate bond portfolio in an environment of deteriorating credit quality in the asset class, particularly in the troubled oil and mining sectors. Woodford and his team are less concerned, saying early this month: "We are reassured about its quality and diversity. We see [L&G's] recent weakness as unjustified, given its strong cash generation, high yield and the fact that it looks well placed to deliver attractive rates of dividend growth." L&G has subsequently released results showing cash generation up 14% and a 19% dividend increase, giving ample support to Woodford's view.

Sorry meant 2.32.
