Peny. I too was in the Cotswolds at half term. I saw a McLaren (sp?) for the first time in my life, in Broadway. Was it you?

Morning all.

Just reversed FTSE long.
Monkey looking to get us both into larger accommodation asap.
Spent a few days in the Cotswolds over the half term. Every other car seemed to be one of those red Italian jobbies with the prancing pony on the front. Definitely a divided nation. You could sit outside the local Greggs for days in the Principality and be lucky to see a Range Rover with a current MOT.
Still, you could say it's motivational.
Sold out of PFC, so just holding FTSE short.
Off to walk the dog.

Trade well and prosper.......

Pope Francis To Discuss Climate Change With Big Oil
By Tsvetana Paraskova - Jun 01, 2018, 5:00 PM CDT Pope

At a time when investors are piling pressure on Big Oil to take climate change seriously, top executives from some of the major global oil companies will be discussing climate change next week at the Vatican with Pope Francis, who called on Catholics in 2015 to join the fight against climate change, Axios reported on Friday, quoting several people familiar with the plans.

According to Axios’s sources, attendees include, among others—BP̵7;s chief executive Bob Dudley; Eldar Sætre, CEO at Equinor (formerly Statoil); Larry Fink, chief executive at the world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock; and Ernest Moniz, former U.S. Energy Secretary under President Obama. ExxonMobil will also be represented at the meeting at the Vatican that Pope Francis will be hosting, according to multiple sources who spoke to Axios.

While other spokespersons either declined to comment or didn’t comment on the report, a spokesman for BP told Axios that Dudley was “looking forward to the Vatican dialogue. He believes gatherings of this kind help develop a better understanding of the energy transition and the best ways for corporations, countries and wider society to participate in it.”

A spokesman for Moniz has also confirmed his attendance.

A few months before the Paris Agreement was struck in 2015, Pope Francis wrote a so-called papal encyclical letter to the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics saying that climate change is real and “Climate change is a global problem with grave implications: environmental, social, economic, political and for the distribution of goods.”

The meeting at the Vatican comes just after large global investors—representing a combined US$10.4 trillion worth of assets under management—urged oil and gas companies last month to start acting responsibly in tackling climate change.

“Investors are embracing their responsibility for supporting the Paris agreement. It is time for the entire oil and gas industry to do the same,” sixty large investors wrote in an open letter to the Financial Times.

BP Back in the game. Nice rise today.

[bracke] 30/5/2018 12:49

Good day Penycae

I wish you well with your 'upsize' search.

Lots of 'events' in the offing. Mr Trump is always good for some volatility and now the Italians want to get in on the act.

There is an old Chinese curse which fits the bill:

'May you live in interesting times'.

[penycae] 30/5/2018 08:49

ladywormer - no, didn't knock it down, too much respect for the architecture. We converted it into four self-contained flats, which are now occupied. The Towers is still part of the family jools.

Closed DOW long from last night. Still holding FTSE and PFC. Missed that 10p here, but you can't have everything.

Trade well and prosper........

[ladywormer] 29/5/2018 22:55

When you say Penycae Towers was redeveloped, I hope it wasn't knocked down and a hundred hamster boxes built in the grounds!

[penycae] 29/5/2018 18:55

Evening bracke.
Net effect of my "downsize" is that I'm living in a smaller house, with two thirds of my furniture in storage.
Mrs. P thinks the world of me, but like bagpipes, she prefers me just out of earshot. Looks like we'll be looking for a larger place some time soon. Need an acre or two with some outbuildings. Penycae Towers was a huge Victorian pile over four stories. We clearly need the same square footage, but on one or two levels.

Just bought the DOW for an overnight hold. Made some money today on PFC, but still holding that FTSE long.

[veryniceperson] 29/5/2018 16:56

Down and up day for these. Like the colour blue much better than red. No point in Saudi and the Russians pumping more, just depresses the price. Not a lot of gain in it.

[bracke] 29/5/2018 11:25

Good day Penycae

Trust you are well apart from the moving aspect.

'Downsize, Upsize' reads like a verse from the 'Grand Old Duke of York'. You could always sell off some of the "stuff". Do you really need it?

I suspect many people are caught in the downsizing quandary. Logically downsizing does mean getting rid of furniture etc. It depends which is more important; the reason you are downsizing or the possessions.

Happy Days.

[penycae] 29/5/2018 08:42

Morning all.
All about gaps now. Tempted, 'cos there's 10p in it, but it might be safer to buy the FTSE for a day trade. Got in at 7665, so time to walk the dog.

[waldron] 28/5/2018 15:07

chuckle


yep all the european oil majors are imo a decent long term play

picked up some TOTAL today and hope that fracas helps me pick up more oilies in the coming days at lower levels

[alphorn] 28/5/2018 13:17

Waldron - yes, watching it! 550 strike, less the premium is the key level.
Not worried if I pick up these shares either.

[ladywormer] 26/5/2018 16:38

Peny - hope there is always room for the monkey!

[penycae] 26/5/2018 15:09

ladywormer - nah, this thread is home. Just been up to my eyes guarding the family jools.
Downsized from Penycae Towers which has since been developed, but regretting the move, because we've just got too much stuff which is now in storage. Mrs. P now insisting that we upsize, so I'm beginning to wonder where it'll all end.

[ladywormer] 26/5/2018 13:10

Great to hear from you Peny and to get your thoughts. I thought you had abandoned us!
