Indeed, the assertions from Argentina are not recent; they have a long history. We all recall Cristina Fernández, who won her election fairly. However, things are more sinister now. Trump's influence on the current situation is evident, and it's characteristic of his narcissistic behavior.

Ryanair might be forced to axe 10% of its flights this summer,. The aviation fuel crisis will affect all airlines.

Trump wants to steal everything and wants to make other nations subservient to the U.S. The U.S are not the friendly cousins that some people believe. Trump has a greed and lust for oil; gold and power. Trump has installed a puppet leader in Argentina.

What did Milei say about Falklands oil and why does it matter for Sea Lion?

The UK will require energy from a range of sources, but the current government is downplaying oil drilling and isn't engaging with opposition critiques on the topic. This is sensible for now. Mentioning oil drilling could invite easily targeted attacks on them, so a more balanced approach from the government might only emerge after the May elections.

With Trump causing chaos in almost all aspects of normality, things will have to change in future. The US are no longer out allies.

In light of this, Rockhopper Exploration PLC's recent update on the Sea Lion offshore oil field is particularly important. The upgrade from contingent resources to reserves signifies that the oil is now commercially viable, enhancing the project's value. The estimated future net revenue stands at 'USD 3.10 billion' from proven and probable reserves, and potentially up to 'USD 4.50 billion' if all reserves are commercialised, indicating a positive financial outlook. Furthermore, with the Falkland Islands government’s approval of development phases 1 and 2, the operational outlook is strengthened. The expected first oil production in early 2028, along with a cash balance of 'USD 179 million', positions Rockhopper favorably for upcoming capital expenditures and significant future revenue generation.

Bluewater Offshore has notified its current client of the imminent departure.

The lunatics have taken over the asylum!

For a man who made his living selling real estate, this was one pitch that even Donald Trump couldn’t make sound convincing.

Trump is systematically collapsing the U.s economy, destroying the and making America the laughing stock of the world.

In one year he’s gone from winning the popular vote to becoming the most hated president in history. The man has no respect.

Will we run out of aviation fuel?

Not likely, but difficult times.

Interesting

It is concerning, with many industry experts predicting that the situation is critical. The compounded issues of geopolitical tensions, diminishing fuel supplies, and soaring prices pose existential challenges for airlines in Europe and beyond. The soon Trump's war is over the better, although the fallout from all this might take years to rectify.

I agree, coop,

Let's just focus on the main goal of getting rich. So, a few people might die, life goes on. Soon, us clever oil investors will be really living the dream, relaxing on the beach while soaking in that beautiful backdrop of nuclear fallout. Who needs a healthy planet when you've got money, right?

Still a bargain.

I believe we have far more growth than to come than is being conveyed. The geopolitical cautious market approach spans all shares, it's already priced in.

To Trump, a 10-Point Plan for Respectful Engagement and Transparency:

(1) Acknowledge Allies: Show respect and appreciation for British and French allies who have historically supported the U.S, your verbal attacks are disrespectful beyond belief.

(2) Respect Sovereignty: Avoid aggressive attempts to claim territories such as Greenland; recognise Canada’s autonomy - they don't want you.

(3) Dismantle state Misinformation: Shut down 'Truth Social,' as it perpetuates obvious falsehoods. It's childish and an insult to the intelligence of Americans and beyond.

On social media, companies audiences will be squeezed in the future. It's good for ITV. Sport coverage intervals will be even hotter spaces.

Positive on the whole, future caution on Trumps illegal war already baked in.

In the late 20th century, as clear evidence emerged connecting smoking to significant health risks, numerous advertisers and media organisations started to separate themselves from the tobacco industry.

We could be approaching a similar critical juncture. With rising concerns about content safety and brand alignment on YouTube, advertisers may find greater reassurance in investing in established platforms that emphasise quality and trust.

I think YouTube's bad rep is actually going to help the BBC and ITV. ITV has confirmed they're still actively engaged in talks with Comcast, about a possible sale. If YouTube keeps slipping, it could make a Sky/ITV deal look even better. With all the scrutiny YouTube's facing and concerns about trust, advertisers might start going back to their traditional sources. As for me, I'm definitely not planning to sell; in fact, it’s quite the opposite!

A California jury has ruled that both Meta and YouTube are liable for damages linked to social media addiction, and this may lead to hundreds or even thousands of similar cases. The increased legal accountability and operational expenses are likely to impose significant costs on these companies. Furthermore, this lawsuit and its outcome could undermine public confidence in YouTube. Consequently, both BBC and ITV may rethink their partnerships with YouTube, as these platforms will face heightened scrutiny regarding their content and user experiences.

This poses an immediate problem for the former ‌Google executive Matt Brittin, who has been announced as the BBC's new director-general.

Interesting times:

Good evening you winning investors (not the TomasTroll ones).
