Great recovery. Just need POO to rise and we'll see 450p in no time.

[veryniceperson] 26/4/2016 12:24

Wonder if we will see 400 in 2 to 3 weeks?

[veryniceperson] 26/4/2016 12:23

The Market likes the results. Or is it the dividend. Wish I had picked up some more at 320 to 330ish. Hindsight a wonderful thing.

Good going as the average oil price was $34.

Just wish I had bought more in the £3.30s.

BP is lagging all its peers by 30-50%, all bad news is baked in..

[hellscream] 25/4/2016 06:06

why should bp drop if they cut the divi? whats the shareprice of cop since they cut it 66%?

[steve73] 25/4/2016 03:38

BP did cut their divi following the oil spill, but quickly re-instated it once the full costs became more defined, and their business restructured to cope with those additional costs.

IF.... repeat, IF, there is a need to cut the divi during this low oil price period then the (probable?) inevitable drop in the share price would, IMO, represent a great buying opportunity - either for an individual private investor, or a corporate raider.

I'm keeping some powder dry for just this possibility.!

there is not gonna be any bid, 500p is just giving the company away.. gota be at least £10

BP’s global refining margin benchmark declined in the first quarter to $10.5 a barrel, from $15.26 a barrel a year earlier and $13.2 a barrel in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Brent prices averaged $35.2 a barrel in the first quarter, 36% lower than a year earlier.

Investors will also be seeking reassurance that dividend payments will be maintained, a key factor making Big Oil attractive. So far only Italy’s Eni and Spain’s Repsol have cut dividends in the current downturn.

BP struck a cautious tone on dividends this month, though, saying it aimed to maintain payments but could review the payout policy if oil prices remained lower for much longer.

Sooner the bid better for BP shareholders....anybody for 500p bid?...

[ladywormer] 24/4/2016 10:38

A small paragraph in today's Sunday Times speculates about Exxon making a bid for BP

Penycae,marcia llawn i'r team ;-)

Morning all. Been looking through Mrs. P's holdings. I always think I buy well, and was therefore surprised to see that her average price here (BP) is at 378! I know this includes dealing costs and stamp duty, but I must have thought they were good value at the time.
Brickies taking a pasting at the moment. There's some good value there. PSN. B.DEV and BKG worth looking at. BKG is a really good trading share at the moment, if you can stomach the swings.

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