Hoping for the divi increase to 33 cents tomozz..... That would be a good message of intent from Shell BOD

[geckotheglorious] 26/7/2022 23:07

Agreed Supermarky.

Fortunately as investor I don’t put my money directly into these countries and try to avoid companies that are heavily reliant on them for their revenue success. But as you say, it a one market world today and there are more interactions than any of us could every analyse or guess affecting our portfolios

I get your point f56. In a democratic country you can vote for change and I would say it’s the voice of the people that decides on change or not with generally fair and not rigged voting . In Russia or China there is no voice of the people to decide. This is the biggest risk in world order today

[f56] 26/7/2022 18:11

What I am trying to say is the world is run on lies. But democracy tends to be less toxic than autocracy for obvious reasons.

[f56] 26/7/2022 17:58

Based on the principle that some lies are less harmful than others.

[f56] 26/7/2022 17:53

I am not saying that the West is a panacea. With democracy you tend to get two sets of lies to choose from. But at least you get to choose which lies you prefer.

[f56] 26/7/2022 17:38

There is a common thread however running between China and Russia. They are born liars. Therefore, their children are brought up to lie. Unfortunately they are, therefore, incapable of successful relationships.

[f56] 26/7/2022 17:33

Why China? Take a look at Russia. There you have a leader born 1952 aged 69. Yet he acts like a two year old. You would think that someone with 69 years experience would make a difference!

[supermarky] 26/7/2022 17:23

China is the real issue. The West have allowed China to become far to powerful. We desperately need to make sure we have independence and National Security from China. Trouble is we are too reliant on cheap products from China and lots of our manufacturing base has been deciimated by 'globalisation'.

I lived and worked in Russia for 5 years until 2020......I would say it was not a bad experience, but would I trust their integrity in business ..> NO........ it was a bad mistake by many companies to put their energy faith in Russia and in particular the West whom they believe are the old enemy. Unfortunately, they are rich is resources and will have power mainly linked to this for many years to come. I think Shell are much more fortunate than BP, and now I am working in Germany can only think how foolish the Germans are and were trusting in Putin. Russia is a dictatorship and not a democracy in leadership. They are not the only one in the world and probably not the first to change world order & approach in next years... China springs immediately to mind

LOL

She was backed by the German people for a long time and thereby stayed in power for a decade plus



SHELL ALSO WAS HAPPY TO BACK RUSSIAN LINKS

Wolan

Germany's Angela East German Deep Mole Merkel the main one to blame.

[wolansm] 26/7/2022 12:25

The west gave Putin the power and opportunity to make recent and past events happen, by not investing in infrastructure for years.

John Redwood@johnredwoodRussia's use of the gas weapon threatens Europe with rationing and power shortages. The U.K. needs to show great urgency in upping our domestic output of gas and electricity. No good relying on imports from an energy short Europe as I have been warning for a long time.6:11 am · 26 Jul 2022·Twitter Web App

Shell Says It Will Proceed With Jackdaw Gas Project


Company decides to move forward with the development, which has been opposed by environmental groups, and says it could produce more than 6% of expected U.K. North Sea gas by mid-decade.

Shell USA Inc. and Shell Midstream Partners L.P. have agreed to merge.

The companies said Monday that they have executed a definitive agreement and plan of merger for Shell USA to acquire all of the common units representing limited partner interests in Shell Midstream Partners held by the public. Shell USA will purchase them at $15.85 each in cash, representing a total value of approximately $1.96 billion, the companies said.

A subsidiary of Shell USA currently owns 269,457,304, or almost 69%, of Shell Midstream Partners common units.

The deal is expected to close in the fourth quarter.

Shell Midstream Partners' assets include interests in entities that own crude-oil and refined products pipelines and terminals that serve as key infrastructure in transporting onshore and offshore crude-oil production to U.S. Gulf Coast and Midwest refining markets. The entities also deliver refined products from those markets to major demand centers, the companies said.

Forget them. We need taxation back to 98% like it was in the 70’s.

[lippy4] 25/7/2022 19:42

what about the leccy companies then???are they being let off??

[kkclimber56] 25/7/2022 18:52

Increase the dividend too much and the drooling trots will be screaming for further windfall profit tax.

[charggg] 25/7/2022 15:18

This statement on the other board summarizes well the Shell managements inefficient dividend raising approach. Maybe someone should ask Shell CEO the following regarding why Shell's dividend is still below pre pandemic levels;"Shell management wasn't as measured when it came to cutting the dividends but is being very measured when it comes to raising it back?"
