It probably doesn't matter how it's handled its a dilution of amount a quarter of a billion pounds whether its a new issue or buybacks held as cashier shares for distribution to staff, and I'm taking nothing away from the staff whi I'm certain are contractually entitled.

Yes Spights, let's see positive momentum this week before you tell us all how far off the mark we've been in the competition. Have a good day and hopefully enjoy the slightly milder weather

Very good news.... Have a good weekend everyone, keep safe and warm

Cabrawrst to qualify for the dividend you must hold the stock on the day before Ex Dividend., on exdiv day the stock trades without dividend. From what you've said you are entitled to receive dividend. Happy Christmas to you too

Morning Meoryou, sorry we appear to have both answered at the same time.

Good morning Causal,
On 4th December they indicated that they would wait and see how matters developed and have a review on 1st Febryary '23 so unless there's some major upheaval I wouldn't expect any opec intervention before then

Good morning everyone.,
Well it's been a week I can only describe as ' flat as a witches tit'
Share price going nowhere fast and oil not really sure what it wants to do... very confusing all round. Keep warm everyone

Interest rate increased by half a percentage point

Causal, yes it's stubbornly straddling 470. Perhaps when we get clarification on lending rates on half an hour we might get some momentum.

Meoryou, the sheer scale of bp's activities around the globe is very impressive. What a year it has been. Keep up the good work Bernard and all the Teams involved globally

BoE #

Brent just over $82 just now. I can see a half percent increase from boer today, hopefully no more than that for the sake if mortgages. Still waiting for sp upward momentum, will it be today ?

Sorry Owls, I missed that post. Glad all is well

.5% increase just announced by Fed. Positive day tomorrow

£197.608

Are we still 5 hours ahead of ET in UK ?? If so the Fed announcement will be at 7pm our time so too late for any market impact here but convenient for ads holders in the states
So we won't see anything happening until tomorrow

Speaking of Christmas, havnt seen any post from Owls for a while, hope all is well

Meoryou you've just defined Christmas

A very good frosty morning Spights Meoryou and everyone.
Brent holding steady north of $80 this morning. Positive day ahead, what's not to like.
I certainly wouldn't want to be waiting for a low entry price right now. Good luck to all holders

Spights you're favourite to win at the moment. Let's see what happens after the Fed release their rate decision later today, there is growing optimism that they will only increase by 50 basis points which might give us a jolt. Depends on how truly independent the fed is of government intervention.
