The more this falls the more likely a dividend cut becomes.

IF SAUDI ARAMCO OWNED 100PC BY SAUDI GOVERNMENT COMES TO MARKET

I WONDER HOW MUCH OF AN IPO WOULD BE MARKETED OUTSIDE SAUDI AND ON
WHICH WORLD STOCK MARKETS

AND IF A HUGE AMOUNT WOULD IT HAVE AN IMPACT ON OTHER OILIES SPs

[essentialinvestor] 08/1/2016 15:07

A small amount more at 1388.

A lot of people appear to be looking for the £12's, not that far away atm.

MRF

do some research Shell already have a huge gas arm to the company .

1264p would be the equivalent of the current BG. price (960p)on bid terms. Rather than BG. rising significantly to give parity it looks like RDS is falling.

[wipo1] 08/1/2016 15:05

So glad I sold, in freefall now, market must think the BG deal will go through now, £12.50 target

[montyhedge] 08/1/2016 15:04

Wow friendless and bloodbath.

[montyhedge] 08/1/2016 15:02

I think I will take my dividend in scrip form, lot more shares for your money now.

[chiragmahe] 08/1/2016 14:53

looks like 1400p barrier about to be broken. Down to 1200p like in 2004?

[gary1966] 08/1/2016 14:50

Price action today would suggest that those that will determine the outcome of this are happier/more confident that the deal will go through. Rotation from RDSB to BG?

[imperial3] 08/1/2016 14:49

Will it be,when oil and gas prices are testing record lows? Oil at $20 $10 a barrel? Can you see any respite,when oil is being pumped at peak levels to maximise dollar income for the producers? The foundations could be shaking.

Vertical integrating an oil and gas fossil fuel business is complete madness. I think shareholders who somehow imagine its now good value and in the long run will somehow add value are making a grave error.Lets pretend it was the otherway round and Shell had a huge NG arm of BGs size. Surely management and shareholders alike would have been screaming at them to divest and split the business long ago to realise best value long before the present energy crash!

[essentialinvestor] 08/1/2016 14:39

In fairness you need to expect some very sharp moves in the run up
to deal completion.

The cheaper you add the better, as long as the Company is fundamentally
sound.

[imperial3] 08/1/2016 14:37

This only goes to show Shell's shares are unwanted now.When the BG deal goes through ( "if" ) the market will have to cope with an influx,which will depress the price even further.

[montyhedge] 08/1/2016 14:21

Wow look at the last rns's, looks like the big funds are shorting Shell.
Shell is friendless in the market.

[montyhedge] 08/1/2016 14:12

Just a thought for the income boys, even if dividend is 47c same as last year.
With the £ to $ 1.46 thats a 32.19p sterling, up from 31p.

[fangorn2] 08/1/2016 14:08

The figures wont, of course , include all the $7-8bn writeoffs this time around - so a bonus there. Poo lower, so lower revenue upstream but one expects downstream will pick up some of that slack.

[montyhedge] 08/1/2016 14:05

Bears in total control, all we can do is sit back and get our 8.5% yield paid quarterly.

[imperial3] 08/1/2016 13:05

Oversupply will keep oil and gas prices low for a long time to come.Surely fund managers know this already.How can they be happy with the BG deal? A threat to the dividend from 2017 onwards? It just cannot be taken for granted that BG is in the bag.Many may have second thoughts.

[gymratt] 08/1/2016 12:27

Double bottom?

[gymratt] 08/1/2016 12:26

Had another nibble @ 1417p :)

[essentialinvestor] 08/1/2016 11:42

Just bought back in, small amount only.
