Today is ex-divi, can't believe there is still confusion here...

And what happened if you followed all of Trump's "stock tips" the previous times? His own company (DJT) is still down more than 40% YTD and YoY.

"USA hold all the cards."

That's why Trump has already performed multiple climbdowns and U-turns since taking office then...Do you not remember the last "trade war" during his first term?

Will the shorts be burning today then? 🤭

"25p is nothing , nor 8%. Compare that to 14 days ago. The tariff damage rebound doesn’t touch the sides.."

Yes - today and possibly tomorrow will be a rip that I suspect many will sell into. The tariff war with China is still escalating and there hasn't been a complete U-turn for other countries.

Or what happened after China's retaliatory tariffs...

Amen,

China hits back with 84% additional tariffs.

Saudi lost control of OPEC long ago when they went alone and unilaterally cut output, whilst the other members refused.

"I am regretting not selling at 173p now!"

Please tell me that's a typo and you meant 73p...You didn't sell Dogafone at 173p?!

Will Savage be offering refunds to punters who bought this dog as a defensive play?

"I've always been a Trump supporter, and recognise that America has such global trade imbalance with the rest of the world, something had to be done."

Makes sense now why you thought our Rosneft stake was worth $20bn.

You think that short interest of 2-4 % is high? Have you banged your head as well?

In reality, short interest hasn't been higher than 5% since 2021, which tosses the "evil shorter manipulation" narrative in the dustbin where it belongs.

Think we heard similar words 12 months ago at 450p-500p...

"Big shorts have had countless opportunities to close in the low teens, however just never do. Seem to be holding steadfastly for zero. I think the predicament they're in is they can't close when this is in the low teens as it causes a massive price spike when even a small short closes."

Have you suffered a head injury?

" I can't help but think that forces are at play holding this share price down or am I illusions?"

People have said that since the share price was in the 400s.

$1bn FCF forecast for 2025 was assuming $80 Brent, now it's clinging to $59, so do you think that might explain it?

"It's always the same when a panic gets going (e.g. Boris's panicdemic back in '20) because there are so many thick people out there."

Smart money unloaded very quickly in January - February of 2020 and had little to no exposure going into Trump's "Liberation Day", ditto similar tail risk events.

Riding things out works for some with modest expectations over a long time horizon, but not for others. However, when you look how poor FTSE 100 returns have been over the last quarter century (c13% capital gains since 1999 in a much weakened pound), most traders win by far.

"oil will be $100 soon enough."

Says the guy who doesn't know the difference between ex-divi and record date, doesn't bode well 😂

Finley checks underneath his bed every night for commies and the sandal-wearing, latte sipping wokerati.

Looks like Anton bought the 10% fake out yesterday, whilst wearing his arm bands.
