RE: Is the market ignoring Brent has been over $60 for 5 months14 Jul 2021 19:32
Correction: "NOT enough" instead of "Now enough?????".
and over $64 since 14th April, which is about 3 months.
Now we have Saudi/UAE agreeing (subject to OPEC meeting in a month) a production rise which most seem to think is NOT enough to compensate for the rising oil consumption.
So in a nut shell to me at least it's highly unlikely Brent will fall below say $70. More likley it will stabilise at more like $75, right where Saudi want it is rumoured. At that level ALL OIL COMPANIES are doing well, unless they hedged below break even level which would be fairly mad. OK, HBR have oil hedged at $61, but that is fine, in fact that should be very good. Also I presume all oil Companies at the moment can hedge if they want?? Presumably you can hedge at what....... $65 or so with Brent at $74 at the moment.
My point is oil Companies in general seem to have been over sold.
BP. is IMHO a fantastic buy at the moment with their move to greener energy showing what little faith some large players have in the board for this. I find it amazing that large investors seem to think BP is somehow going to crash it's profits and loose it's dividend moving to cleaner energy. I bought more about 2 weeks ago. Nice dividend and what to me looks like a trashed share price............ why is it not £4.00??
All IMHO.
