Comparing with other majors prices and sales of assets with low ROCE, RDSB should see another 2% + before share goes ex. Divi. then rising thru Dec /Jan to Barclays target of 2850. Raise in gas sales 2018/19 should be a significant help.
Well woke up which for me is always a bonus (win or loose) that said as the day progressed thru 2+ % the smile on my face got bigger and bigger esp. as I loaded up with a few more first thing, mind still looking for the other 1% but we'll get there. Think recently I've been behind the curve for estimates a few weeks, but who cares if they turn out right a few weeks later that expected.....+ 1.22 % should be possible soon. GLA and remember to do own research.
Another sale of North sea assets completed......all helps to reduce Opex and Divi cover strength ended.
Didn't see RDSB SP go up by 3+ % in one go in past 3-6 mths, so fingers are crossed that the brokers have got there facts correct, whatever happens I'm in for the long haul and have a 11/1 weighting for RDSB in my portfolio
If BP. Managed a 3% + rise this morning where will that put RDSB come Nov 2 ? Having seen most pundits / brokers indicate RDSB is a better company than BP. I would expect RDSB turn out around 3 1/2 % or higher.....85 p would do it.....might even push 100p. As the old saying goes ....."I'm going well, Im going Shell". Gud luk all.
With dollar rising and earnings looking to exceed expectations then year high should be surpassed with ease come Nov 2. Barclays T.P. Of 2850 not unrealistic as long as SudiSaudis support prod cuts.
With a new year hi today RDSB has more to go with fall in pound and rise in USD, add in increase in use and possibility off a cold winter makes Barclays target feasabile come January/February.
Capricorn on Bloomberg......looking to 70USD/Bbl in 2018 for Brent.
Good buy into electric charging business today, worth a small lift come Friday.
Geo political risks 'that may have an impact on SP' are being managed constantly to one degree or another and with varying levels of success. Highest risks include, nuclear terrorism, mass immigration, natural disasters, climate change, failure of the global banking systems, fraud or theft of global IT Data systems. Examples where risks are being managed actively include, immigration controls 'tightening in Europe'. Defeat of Terrorist groups in Syria and Iraq, Wider recognition in USA of climate change effects. Key to the SP progressing in short term will be a further cut in prod by Suadi Arabia, longer term prod (2018) looks like equaling out with global needs.
A good price to get into a solid company, my ISA will enjoy the stability it offers.
With Divi looking very safe there's a bit more to go here, come Nov when Saudis push for another deal it's looking to be a plus for the SP. Add in an easing of geo political risks and a few more sales in pipeline can only be good.....a price around 2600 would be a great xmas present.
With oil prices where They are should be a new hi for RDSB soon for 2017.
25 looking to be well in sight and divi good for next 12-18 months........some good sales recently adding to strength and integration plans.
A reasonable price after divi is paid would be 2500 so worth hanging in and still a strong buy.
With asset sales, buy backs, increased requirements for Crude starting to gain momentum, can see brokers top estimates could be achived by year end.....whatever happens the divi is looking safe and market beating.
More investors looking at oil , good news this week should see a good lift.
RDSB should see another 2% higher today, divi safer than BP.
More cuts possible in staff positions in areas such as Angola, Azerbaijan, Europe, with key staff being replaced by contractors....this would assist in staving off any predators , will also help with maintaining divi and reducing OPEX. RDSA/B looking in much better shape and with a significantly safer Divi.
Last message should have read (brent ) not (WTI) reaching 60 Bbl by end of June. Income increasing, LNG sales increasing, with good long term prospects, US and European Oil stocks slowly decreasing. Dividend secure......What else, asset sales progressing well, CAPEX and OPEX well managed,
