RDS-B is yielding over 7%
XOM is near 6%

I'm tempted...talk me out of it.

I've been holding CVX and SLB during all of the energy slump too. I'm still barely in the green (+2.2%) on CVX as it's a long term position. Down 25% on SLB.

I got tempted and bit at the first of the year. Jumped into RDS.B and stock price is down 15% in 7 weeks. Also took a flyer on PXD which is down by about half that but only pays 1.5% div.

O&G has been painful even short term. I thought it might be time for a bottom so I’ll continue holding. But O&G is the worst performer in my portfolio. Please make it stop.

The market for O&G is very tough right now.

I’ve sold all my RDS and I’m hanging onto the little bit of XOM I have.

Why by dividends when S&P is doing 10-15% a year and you are diversified?

it's funny to think that less than 10 years ago xom was neck n neck with apple and microsoft as the world's most valuable company. now aapl and msft are closer to $2t than xom is to $1t.

i'm with alot of guys here that have been holding xom, cvx and slb on the way down, and am hoping for a turnaround and won't sell.

Saw that! They are doing a debt restructure. It allows them to kick the can down the road for 3 more years, I think. I’m thinking about taking a gamble with them.

Nothing wrong with selling in taxable accounts and having tax losses to offset profitable sales of other securities in taxable accounts. If it's all in retirement accounts, well, that shite might hurt. Thought everyone on here needed to sell some TSLA tax free..... I'm still waiting to see the accurate math of the EVs time frame replacing traditional vehicles. Lenders will quit making 7 and 8 year car loans to the poors when defaults start happening on current loans in mass quantity so how will they buy all the new EVs in the next few years? Will truck nuts be viewed the same dangling from EVs with no rumbling exhaust??

At least RDS is continuing to buy back shares at current low prices, many management teams only like to buy back when shares are high priced.
