You are, without a question, a dumb-arse.
Now, go look that up!

I don't dispute the arse part, but if you would like to call me dumb, I suggest that you debunk the notion of my post concerning the efficient flow of capital in free markets.
I recently read a study on the matter, so it is possible. I, however, doubt you will.

I am with you...I could possibly hedge my losses of property value with BP shares. I considered buying at $40 but today it went to $36. What do you think the low will be?

I said it at the beginning and I still say it now, but until that well is plugged, BP equity is something I am not touching.
I think that it is at a good value right now, but that doesn't mean I don't think it will go lower. I did, however, close my put positions on the stock today. Ridiculous amounts of profit from buying deep out of the money puts were the easiest money I have made since flipping shares of bear stearns in 2007.
I am thinking about buying into some out of the money calls on BP, but one again, I think holding the equity is playing with fire.

I am not good with puts and calls. My husband said I am a bottomfeeder! What do you think of DO and SLB?

Is it not a reasonable request given the thread title?

Not around a computer, but if you take that to the money talk board, you will probably get some good feedback.

What was the price before this situation?

Could soon be a good time to buy
Buy it and add a put for some insurance.

I wouldn't touch that stock until the well is capped.

Bunch of oil related stocks are falling like stones.......Check out NOV @ $36 I absolutely love it this low.
I have Exxon stock through work and it's dropped about $10 a share in the last month and a half. It's not just BP.

Implied point was the efficiency of capital markets will never allow a protest on equity ownership of a company to have an effect.
I can well understand that there is money to be made from any movement of a stock price...and I can appreciate your position that personal sentiments should not enter into a technical analysis of equity prices. But you are essentially saying that consumer sentiments, moral sensitivities, and deplorabe circumstances have no effect on the price of equitites. Just because you do not have some greek letter that represents personal sentiment and/or external shocks to plug into your calculus doesn't mean that there is no quantifiable effect on stock prices from these factors. Elusive to quantify?, of course. But it is there.
So don't hijack a thread with a drunken and reckless assertion from the grail of academia....take it to the money board where there is more competition for you.
