Maybe if you got a short in on Friday. It's down 20% in international markets...about $32 when I last looked. It's going to be a bloodbath in E&P, OFS and Midstream equities tomorrow.

Yeah I wouldn’t touch anything oil related. Those stocks were underperforming before SA laid their balls on the table with Russia.

DAY trading. Maybe the title wasn’t clear judging by the responses.

But it’s clear nobody is into it, so never mind.

As someone who works in the industry with Conocophillips, Hunt, EOG and others... let that exxon stock fall past $40.... they’re cutting west Texas production by 80k bbls, obviously they might cut more. Haven’t said anything about cutting the 6.9% dividends

I agree. I would not be averaging down a position in XOM yet. It will fall more. If not this week then in the near future.

From a longer term perspective, the question is, at what price are you buying? $20? Lower?

I think the XOM dividend will get to 10% if they don’t cut it.

When I was in college (1987-1991) gas was .93 or so a gallon. What were oil prices like at that time??

This sucks so bad. And I inherited Exxon stock years ago and held on it it. It’s split twice and I’ve sold some as we were heavy in it for our portfolio. Just gonnna have to ride that I guess.

So why would it go up? If it’s dropping like it is pet share?

When the stock price drops, it causes the dividend yield percentage to rise if pay out remains the same.

If a stocks pays out $2 per year, then:
at $40/share the dividend is 5%
at $20/share the dividend is 10%

XOM has dropped like a rock so the dividend percentage has sharply increased.

I guess in my mind If the stock is sinking (xox
M) the dividend would drop as well — it seems like he company would be losing mo way. Is the increase in dividends to lure people back into buying the stock ?

ConocoPhillips is dropping like a fly. Why wouldn’t I buy some?

Good value no?
