I'd like to see higher volume though to call the low.

The early bird catches the worm they say!

I've got a limit order in to buy @ 1511. I don't really expect it to get hit unless the market is very spooked this morning.

As he was on Arctic drilling, just look at some of the Shell statements,
they look comical now.

However, everything has a price and this is off approx 10% (even allowing
for the dividend) in a month, may be available lower down tomorrow.

Fangorn 2. I agree.Not only that, I think Van Beurden is far too optimistic on future pricing,when there is such an oversupply.

[fangorn2] 14/11/2015 21:43

Paying the break fee, cancelling the takeover,and looking for far cheaper assets elsewhere might be the best call for Shell imo

@Diku,

Google FTW.......Shell break fee re bg deal


"But there is always the possibility that Shell could choose to walk away and pay £750m as a break fee."

[diku] 14/11/2015 18:46

Does anybody know the break fee for the BG deal?...

[essentialinvestor] 14/11/2015 13:08

Looking to add a few next week if this falls continues.

Prefer BP however Shell looking better value near this price.

6-7% gap up on any BG change of mind, but as Shell keep reiterating their commitment
to the deal that looks a scant prospect imv.

revell40 - You'll need to look at the last two lines of post 4463 for the answer to that one.

[revell40] 13/11/2015 17:22

Can anyone help me I hold Bg and want some shell which is the best way at today's price buy Bg or shell ta

[essentialinvestor] 13/11/2015 14:24

Even allowing for the XD, the Shell decline on a 1 month basis is twice
that of BP.


Edit, had a few at 1585 and 1575.

[essentialinvestor] 13/11/2015 11:18

Yup likewise, tempted now to start adding back.

[enturner] 13/11/2015 11:14

Last time saw new lows at div+7 and div+31 days. I'm watching this one closely with finger poised to buy. Might not get another chance.

[babybear] 13/11/2015 08:29

Its been a very kind and unexpected bounce in oil, hope lots of sufferers dumped at 1750+, back on the inevitable decline to £12-£13 range

[moneysage] 12/11/2015 21:31

I think it will revisit £14.85 and then bounce back for the XMAS rally

[my retirement fund] 12/11/2015 19:57

Anyone see this cracking through fifteen pounds?

[chairman20] 11/11/2015 15:51

There will be a huge ramping up of investor
pressure as hedge funds specialising in M&A
start to take positions and then use news
reports and broker comments to try to force
the company to do whatever yields them
maximum short term profit.

I am on the side of hoping the company has the
courage to tell these cowardly commentators
to go and get stuffed.

for most of us Just remember "believe almost
nothing and no one and follow your own judgement."

[my retirement fund] 11/11/2015 15:51

Indeed they do cant argue with a company taking the long view however do not forget that such long views can and do turn out to be wrong.

For example their polar ambitions were supposed to be long term views but having spent many billions, we learn its all been dumped in the skip !

[careful] 11/11/2015 15:31

most of the bg. deal is in RDSB shares.
£3.83 + (.45x rdsb share price.)

at the time of the deal RDSB were about £22.
the offer was worth £3.83+£9.9 = £13.73

today = £3.83 + £7.54 = £11.37.
already it is 17% cheaper.

Shell take a 100 year view as always,and know what they are doing.

[my retirement fund] 11/11/2015 15:19

I think that until or unless they start making the right noises to ditch the BG deal the share price is only going to experience considerable downside pressure.

Its a shame really, they so jumped the gun on this one.
