This summary was created by AI, based on 2 opinions in the last 12 months.

BP PLC has recently experienced significant upward movement in its stock price, prompting some experts to suggest that selling to realize gains might be a strategic move. However, there's a contrasting opinion regarding the company's long-term vision, especially concerning its heavy investment in alternative energies. Some analysts criticize BP for diverting focus away from its core competencies in traditional energy sectors. The sentiment suggests that this shift in strategy may not align with the market's expectations, leading to skepticism about the company's direction and overall stock performance. The debate centers around whether BP can effectively balance its past legacy with future ambitions, particularly in the volatile energy landscape.

Had issues with Deep Horizon in the Gulf and took impairments and write downs over the years. Now long in BP in funds. Cheaper of the peers. Good name to own. Exposure to the British pound as well which has some upsides.

Jun 03, 2021
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly With Brent oil prices back over $70, the future of oil looks brighter -- especially as the global economy continues to re-open. Shares are trading at 1.1x book value, with a PEG ratio of under 0.6 (good value relative to growth potential). It pays a great dividend, backed by a payout ratio of 45% of cash flow. We would buy this with a stop loss at $20, looking to achieve $32 -- upside potential over 14% (although with such a good yield, we might just trailing up the stop). Yield 4.67% (Analysts’ price target is $31.57)

(A Top Pick Jun 11/19, Down 38%) The stock has recovered. It has proven to be so volatile. He is lightening up on his energy exposure. You may want to hold it for another year or two to get into a more normalized environment.

(A Top Pick May 07/19, Down 45%) BP will be profitable this year because of its downstream operations. They're also cutting edge with their renewable energy division. The dividend will be safe for 12 months, but Brent oil will eventually need to rise for the dividend to survive longer.

A super major energy company. Their growth and capital allocation don't make this compelling at all. EOG-N is much better and will snap back better after this oil sell-down.

(A Top Pick Dec 27/18, Up 3%) Oil prices continue to struggle, but BP pays a big, safe dividend. They generate great return on capital even at current oil prices. They also run fuel stations in Europe and sell natural gas products, not just oil. They're a leader in using data to make equipment use efficient.

Huge cash flow. They made a big acquisiton of BHP in 2018 and their timing was impeccable. Pays a 5.5% yield that'll grow. They're a big investor in renewables. A cheap stock at 11x earnings. (Analysts’ price target is $50.32)

(A Top Pick Dec 27/18, Up 14%) BP is how he plays oil. It's the gold standard in oil operations. They've focussed on cost and discipline, using technology to improve recoveries and cost overruns. Even with $50-60 oil, they'll double their cash flow within five years. Pays a safe 6% dividend.

The oil price is nearing its bottom, he thinks. $45 is the marginal cost of U.S. shale production. BP uses new technology and data to reduce their costs and boost productivity. Even if the oil price stays within $45-65, he thinks BP will still bring on more production. They can increase their free cash flow. Pays a decent yield. (Analysts’ price target is $49.30)

BP recently made a big acquisition that the market liked. Its balance sheet is reasonable and its last earnings results were good. It recently increased its dividend. Oil is finding a level at $70 or higher, which is good for BP.
