RE: HBR v BP10 Feb 2022 11:14
Hi oil, you are correct, with hindsight purchasing BP instead of HBR back in COVID lockdown days was the better option. Like many of you I thought HBR had more of an upside. Hope some of you guys bought both to perhaps alleviate some of the pains of this share.
I don’t agree with your current assessment that HBR is not a better buy than the likes of BP. One thing you can safely say about BP is that the current energy prices are already factored in. I do not think that can be said of HBR. Whether it’s lack of volume, manipulation, EIG mopping up the shares, the fact that HBR is yet to produce an EOY set of results, I don’t know. All I can say is that at these oil/gas prices then any energy company producing over 170k of oil equivalents are making money, lots of it , have to be. So maybe we have to wait until EOY results, wait and see whether EIG start selling their holding after the lock is released.
Any company announcing a 200 million dividend is expecting to make large profit, yes?. Will tolmount be online at EOY results time, let’s hope so. At the end of the day the likes of EIG want to make big profits just like us. What we don’t know is whether they are buiding up their ownership or whether they intend to sell the company for a large make up. None of us know yet.
ONEDB has mentioned a couple of times that he expects SP to eventually rise up to over 1000. I concur. As long as energy prices remain strong, as long as production remains 170k+ , as long as EOY results are good, as long as tolmount comes online then I believe there is a large upside.
And before people get upset, please note that this is just my opinion. HBR/PMO have disappointed us in the past and may do so again. Please DYOR. Like all stocks it is a bit of a gamble… it’s whether you like odds or not.
