    BP..cheap at the moment..
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    I made my purchases today.

    Went for BP and Royal & Sun Alliance.

    RSA was more of a gamble as they could drop a chunk more depending on the Euro, but they could also recover a lot if the news is good. Over 9% yield too.

    no, all individually purchased. Does this make any difference?

    And good luck to who ever recently suggested First. Biggest riser today. Sadly I missed it :o

    Im not sure you have missed it, they seem to be valued at 4PE Is there alot of debt? Earnings 39p and div is 7.6p


    BP is cheap and seems to quite like staying cheap. Definitely buy if FTSE is going to 6000
    I didnt bother getting more, I took BG which seems far more dynamic. Natural gas has been rising (some) as oil falls funnily enough

    Also Enquest, Questor reviewed it recently and Range Resources, I think they found trace oil and halved in price. They havent finished yet :o
    Also IG Index

    USA holiday weekend, could mean less selling pressure

    There was a big swing up this afternoon the US because all the Euro leaders were having dinner together this evening. Maybe they should have dinner together every night.
