There's always some crass loser that has to boast about how many shares they have. Disgusting trait that is thankfully just left to the odd anus or 2.
Does anyone care, or feel envious? Or does everyone ignore the socially awkward idiot that thinks it looks big and 'powerful' to her imaginary 'fwends'?
WMMG, aka the forum fool 'The strategy he announced 11 months ago was long term.' Head and arse completely aligned.
If we all stuck rigidly to the initial plan we'd all be clones, but not an arse clone like Smiffy.
I too would be interested if you have a link, licker.
WMMG. I feel you don't really get that you are foolishly clinging on to one fact. Things have moved on, yet you don't seem able to comprehend a dynamic plan...you HAVE to have a plan to HAVE a plan to change.
Christ, with arse clones like you in the NHS we'd be finished.
So, stop being silly (read stupid) find some recent information and have another go at posting. You are not a bright lad - remember that.
WMG, that article is a year out of date. Things change.
Zac0, he may well be saying that...but he isn't the owner. There is little confidence in him, hence the big players are out and the sp is incompetently low.
I'd start looking at his number 2 now, as that person stands a good chance of taking over shortly if he doesn't re-evaluate. If the city has lost faith in him, and it has, the clue is in the share price.; it is holistically screwed.
He may be the first CEO to be out on his arse for a while, but he isn't glues to the seat.
Still a month away, but what are you folks thinking? Maintain the 7p divi, but announce the special will come, or maybe blow us all away and announce the special there and then.
I've held and added for 4 years now, but £7bn to hand back...30-50p per share held? Could be a huge hit for dividend tax, after a £2000 limit bust?
If the exceptionally tight Q2 is not so tight then I can see pressure building to increase the dividend. Nobody here (apart from the odd idiot) has bought this share to watch the board get richer at their expense.
Shell have cautiously signalled their intention to increase their divi, and to stop the exodus to Shell we need a similar announcement here.
There's the odd idiot here that thinks we should scrap the divi and go for broke on the green stuff. A bit like paying your whole salary against your mortgage and not eating. It's a balance, as we all want different things. Charlesrixham wants share price growth, mojo wants dips and even the labotomised smithy wants something.
In the next 23 days I expect to see smithy empty his backside on here daily, Charles get hyper and Bigbadbaz keep it real. Bbb is the only one on here that has a grasp of reality, this isn't going to £4 this year, but it isn't going to £2 either. The divi is not under pressure, so expect an initial burst of £1-2bn debt repayment, then a good dose of buy backs, then in Q4 a divi increase, once Zaco the whacko allows the board to do that.
A daily price sampling rate is the sign of an investor that hasn't done their homework
Baz,
Smithy is our youngest and most inexperienced ramper.
He/ she/ they gambles and does not have the sense to research things, hence he can't even get the units correct on solar...the greatest threat to mainstream oil use.
I think his present rental is next to Asda, and the street name is la la land.
A talented investor banged out recently, someone called mojo who had a good approach to investing. He left because at present we are in market where the rule book has been ripped up, and there are too many people like Smithy, investing in s gambling manner. He is sorely missed, but you can either move with the market chaos or leave.
All the technical analysis is shelved for now, as not one person on here has called it right, and yesterday only a few knew to buy in. Rampers like the Smithy are not to be trusted with advice or 'feelings' on here. This is the Wild West for now.
I bought in yesterday for what I hope will be a week to hit my profit point and then leave. If I get it right (I'm looking for £200) profit on a couple of thousand shares), then I've made that bank money work for me...if I get it wrong I have zero doubt that it will make more over a month or two...but my broker stretches out cash withdrawals to a week or more; the price of a cheap broker.
There is money to be made.
I think we are almost guaranteed a military spat between significant sides (not Italy or Wales!), and I think the market shock from it will be massive. Oil will rise!!
BP are diversifying quickly and are soaking up proven businesses as necessary to get straight at it.
BP is a long and short term holding of mine. Short term for the risk and the fact that it is undervalued right now, so even if I have to wait a week, I can still make a nice profit. If the price was 20-30p higher I don't think I'd have the cahoonas to do it any more.
The aviation industry hasn't really opened up yet, once those planet destroying LH aircraft are westbound again then demand/ supply/ profits will all change up a gear.
I'm not sure it has £8 in it. Unless the margins improve I am starting to see a saturation point with the margin.
As an aside, anyone else here hold LGEN? The divi is well covered but not a stock to day trade, that's for sure. All my holdings are in the red, but the paper loss is still more than covered by the div, even though the next one is less than 5p.
Mr C. For what it's worth... I think the divi will be well covered for Q2, the expected 'weak' Q. I think, with a buoyant oil price throughout Q3 there will be big league pressure to reconsider the divi again. It was raised to be cut a year ago, but this isn't just about a Financial Plan (don't you make a plan so you can change it, rather than follow chaos!)
There are plenty of CEOs that would love to run BP, so the CEO job is not certain. They work for the shareholders, so if the share price isn't reflecting the buy-backs quickly enough then to stop the rot I would expect a divi rise; Q3 is my guess. Just a guess.
Smithy, I'm not sure if you are thick, obtuse or just a Motley FOOL. Your posts are infantile and lack cohesion or sense.
Are you struggling with Covid, and the strain that most others are coping with?
Q2 will be 'interesting' nothing more.
Porche, I'm a bit of both. There is growth in this stock, once all the asset stripping is complete. I wouldn't like to say at what rate, or a high figure...but I'll be done by 500p, as then the dividend yield will not be worth keeping.
I'm hoping that the special is exactly that, but we shall see soon enough.
Smithy, what are you trying to say in your pigeon English? Matt H, Weatherspoons sold 'stonks'. You are obviously indulging slightly too early,, have you no job or are you a multi millionaire on a free chatroom?
No I hold plenty, and I day trade with some money as there are plenty of peaks and troughs.
If you are no O.K then chat away like a good one if it helps...but clearly writing in English is not your thing!
Rixon, the most prolific ramper on here! Of course it is going to go up, or maybe down. We don't know, so we. If we did we wouldn't be reading your nonsense almost daily.
Your pathetic drivel on it's going up all the time show you to be at the back of the pantomime donkey.
Hapless made a stupid call and several of you have now re-mortgaged because someone on the internet said it was going to 335.
It's a good idea to keep Tourette style numbers to yourself and just indulge in the facts and figures people research, not the crXp they spout, and which I am calling people out on.
