Good morning Spights, sorry to hear you are feeling unwell. I prescribe a couple of strong " hot whiskies" and you will be dancing a jig around the house. Hope you are better very soon

Thank you Spights yes that would be very acceptable lol

Good morning MKumar and everyone.
Comfort reading !!!
I'm not a subscriber on TipRanks but just wondered if the 30% projection was based on today's stock price or last weeks. Thanks for the post

Negativity #

Chid, there's a lot of negatively around at present., Yes the looming budget might be a concern, the economy also, but I wonder just how US will respond to the drone incident over the black Sea, I would be surprised if they do not retaliate in some way. Personally, I'm looking forward to the meetings between China and Russia next week and in particular the subsequent meeting between China and Ukraine., dare we hope for some sort of breakthrough ??? who knows but it would be very welcome

Ah OK I thought you might very been attending the festival..
We've had light frost overnight in Norfolk but lovely bright and sunny start this morning

Hi Spights, oil seems to be in 'twitchy' mode presently due to the banking fiasco and lack of confidence, however, I do think today will see us making positive headway have a good day. Are you still in Cheltenham?

Spights this makes perfect sense to me

Hi Spights Meoryou Happy and all,
Not having a good day, decided to take dog for a long walk to cheer myself up after realising were almost 4% down., bad decision as my buckinghat got blown off my buckineers in the gales.

Is this the cause of todays fallback or is it the silicon Bank fiasco that's ruffled our feathers.
It's embarrassing the way we seem to perfect the art of grasping defeat from the Jaws of victory in this country. I was becoming hopeful that most sane individuals had come to realise and accept that we simply cannot rush the transformation to renewable energy but maybe I was mistaken, not for the first time.

Good morning Spights, Yes the Democrats hate the oil companies as was demonstrated during the gom disaster, when Obama was no friend to BP. Sadly Trump wasn't about then.
Hope you are coping with the snow.

Good newd Terry, should boost the dividend amount. Following Powell's remarks about liklihood of increased interest rates I expect to see the share price fall back on opening this morning taking its lead from eastern markets

Interesting post Grandadtom., I didn't realise they actually turned off the 'whirlygiggs' because the grid couldn't cope.
Therein lies the long term problem if our infrastructure/national grid simply cannot cope

Hi Spights and everyone.,
Fairly mild and dry atm in Norfolk but who knows what's to come if we take notice of the forecasters.

I suspect the devision by North Sea bp operatives is responsible for todays backslide.

Morning Spights, it's a curious article... I cannot see BP halting the buybacks process in the near term, although I would be perfectly happy if the did and concentrated more on debt reduction and dividend reinstatement, especially at these elevated share prices. Have a good day

JSB.. my apologies for typo yes I do mean 580.

Good morning Spights Meoryou JSB and all.
We seem to be in yoyo pattern between 550 and 560 for a while now. I'm hoping we can step up to 480 before next results.
Sadly I don't think there's much chance of a takeover bid but it's making a lot of 'inches' in the press. If we had a resolution to Rosneft and paid down the GM debt perhaps we would be an irresistible honeypot for one if the big players. Have a good day

A very good morning Spights,
What an interesting article and confirming what many on this board have been saying for months. Interesting times for BP

Megan 1, sadly I think you are correct, the Conservative party will spend years in the wilderness because they cannot seem to agree anything between themselves and the constant infighting is embarrassing to say the least. Having said that Starmer has gone to considerable lengths to try to portray Labour as a transformed party with all anti semitic rooted out, he has even taken the trouble to say what he does not stand for, but not a single word about what he does stand for, other than bashing big oil, the very enterprises that keep the country solvent, and our pension pots earning.
That's the future of British politics unless there is a massive about turn and all tories start thinking about the country and not themselves. Have a good day
