might be worth buying now

I doubt he did, traders always exaggerate when they bought it and how much profit they make... not only did he pick the right day, he also picked the exact lowest price of the year too? why 29? why not 28.50? or 29.50? or 39 a week earlier? It's plausible I guess, but chances that he would buy it at a 52 week low is really 1 in a million...My dad picked some up that low. Old bastard won't stop talking about it, but that's how he makes his living.
I don't see what the big deal is. Those who watch the markets around the clock do this sort of thing. You do realize their are online resources that tracks stocks minute by minute don't you?

Curious myself after reading your post I just called my dad and asked him this. He laughed at me and said that depending on what online system or broker someone uses, he could have set it or told them to buy at exactly 29. He also said he could be rounding up or rounding down for the sake of conversation.I doubt he did, traders always exaggerate when they bought it and how much profit they make... not only did he pick the right day, he also picked the exact lowest price of the year too? why 29? why not 28.50? or 29.50? or 39 a week earlier?

yea, you can set a "limit" order, you specify a price and when it hits that price the stock gets bought... the problem is why 29? why not 30? or 33? 35? or 39? If he really bought at 29.50 and just called it "29", that's I guess close enough and very possible, but a bit misleading... I would have called it "under 30", or "around 29" though...Curious myself after reading your post I just called my dad and asked him this.

I am in Thailand I buy gold every time when I get my paycheck but is gold in my hand not some piece of paper saying I own xx ounces of gold.
When BP hits $19 I am hitting it like newly released death row inmate freed by a DNA test.Last edited by Michael O; 06-18-2010, 07:43 AM.Truth TellerComment

thats not Illuminati. It's called big business and gloablization and its coming whether you like it or not. And not all things associated with it are not doom and gloom. Your pegging theory is simplistic and arrogant, like you i guess.Comment

I called him again and said, "dad guys on the internet are asking questions again." He told me to get real job and laughed at me again.
Anyways he said 29 is better than 30 because non experienced traders will go on 30. "Buy when it drops below 30". He then gave me some long winded reason why people do this, why it is better and I told him to stop. All over my head. Though he said the guy probably didn't but at exactly at $29.00 unless he said to buy AT 29 or anything lower.
OP --- I'm tired of calling my dad. Please explain yourself.Comment

You missed the point. I think he is full of shit and saying things after the fact.Again I don't see the problem. If he dumps it and makes 20,000 dollars, whats the deal? Isn't that the idea? Or are you guys so painted into a corner of porn failure and small change that you can't comprehend true success?
Don't understand haters when someone is trying to help them make money. Very strange thing.
I have owned 200 oz of gold since is was 585 and have held it for over 2 years.Comment

I have no idea if he is full of shit on this stock or not. I just take him a little serious because he called gold to go over 1000 back when it was 600 and he was right on the money. I remember a lot of people laughing at him then, pretty much like they are now.
I also keep in mind that if any of you were actually half way good at investing anything at all, you would not be in porn because lets face of it, most of the people here are just getting by. There are only a handful of very wealthy porn guys and most of them are not posting on GFY.

Yup, many many people were but that's not why i bought it. I bought just in case my accounts were ever frozen or the banks collapsed and to diversify some of my holdings.
Also, I never claimed to be an investing wiz just calling this guy on his bullshit man. I wouldn't consider myself "very wealthy" but I have made a decent amount in adult and i'm worth a few mill. I still run my sites and post on hereI also keep in mind that if any of you were actually half way good at investing anything at all, you would not be in porn because lets face of it, most of the people here are just getting by.

amazing how people fret about the way wall street makes its money, but its AOK to buy into BP.
But morals aside, the big risk to the stock is the possibility of 200 million gallons of oil storm surging into the southeastern states. A black hurricane will most definitely put BP out of business.
That would be justice, as BP should be put to death just on principle.Comment

There are just so many variables on this trade. Obama could keep criticizing the company to look like a big man in the lead up to the election or there could be a monster storm etc, or neither of these things could happen and the general economy could just keep tanking.
Also, when you criticize BP remember that they are drilling the stuff you use. If you don't like deep water drilling, perhaps you should consider cutting consumption or buying an electric car.BarefootsiesComment

With yesterday's sell-off of BP shares taking the stock about 10% lower, the shares are now trading at a price not seen this century. The suspension of the dividend, of course, makes the stock unattractive to income investors, but beyond that, there are more than enough people around who are primarily interested in punishing the company. After all, BP has become the boogeyman of the day, an easy target for activists and comedians alike.
But investors need to take a more logical approach, as well as a long-term view. Obviously, this won't be an income stock for some time. But when you consider its earnings potential in the decades ahead, it's clear that the restoration of the dividend, albeit at a lower level, won't be too many years away. And like ExxonMobil (XOM) after the Exxon Valdez incident, the company (and the stock) will eventually rebound.
The current market capitalization is just under $90 million, down about 50%. So it has taken a $90 billion haircut, placed $20 billion in escrow, suspended its $10 billion per year dividend, and may well have to cut back on its annual capital spending of $30 billion. Add to that the crude oil that it's losing on a minute-by-minute basis, and it's clear that the company will be hurting for some time. Hasn't it suffered enough?
The popular image of Tony Hayward as an uncaring playboy yachtsman is a focal point for many critics, but the fact is that the company employs tens of thousands of people both here and abroad, and the chances are pretty good that they care very deeply about what's happening. We shouldn't punish them for the poor people skills of Mr. Hayward nor for the oil spill in general, since it was, after all, an accident.
A Sleeper Investment?
So what about BP stock now? Is it a buy? That's the question some are asking, but the real question should be: When is it a buy? Eventually, when the flow of oil is stopped and the claims are paid off, BP's profitable business model will kick in and the stock will become attractive again. That could be years away, especially when you factor in all the court cases we're likely to see. But like Exxon after the incident in Alaska, the company will likely fare much better than many assume. If we wait for that to become clear, it will be too late.
My guess...and that's all that it is...is that buying the stock now that it's below $30 will prove to have been a wise decision in retrospect. We'll have to be patient, but that's the way it is with sleeper stocks. (You definitely could label BP a speculative buy, of course. I would not be surprised if the company chooses to give Mr. Hayward his walking papers, nor would it surprise me if that event triggered a nice little rally. Then he can play with his yacht all he wants.

^^Good Post.
Bottom line is this; There are far too many good stocks out there to invest your money in. If you're going to gamble by putting your money in BP, the smart bet would be to short the shit out of it 'cause this thing is going down near term.Comment

What site do you use to follow the BP stock?Comment

BP can't borrow money at the moment and they need to raise cash to cover their asses. Nobody will give them a loan at reasonable conditions. That's why their stock goes down. They won't be able to raise cash. Their only hope are large sovereign funds.
I think the stock will go be a bargain below 10 bucks.Last edited by faxxaff; 06-25-2010, 08:55 AM.Comment

Paul's point seems to me to be the most likely. They are very well posed for a hostile takeover at the moment and even if things did get worse for them, I don't see them ever going away completely, they will just be acquired.Comment

Here's some of the popular brokers with trade fees and account minimums.
Charles Schwab $12.95 $1,000
E*Trade $6.99 (1500+ trades) - $12.99 (0-29 trades) $1,000
Scottrade $7.00 all trades $500
TD Ameritrade $9.99 $2000Comment

Very unlikely. Who would want to purchase a totally damaged brand? It's only interesting to buy if it gets very cheap .... 5 or 10 bucks or so. Then there is significant upside potential. At 27$ the downside risk is far bigger than the upside potential.
Technically, the chart is broken and the selling pressure remains very strong as pension funds gave up on BP.Last edited by faxxaff; 06-25-2010, 11:29 PM.Comment

I've spent about a quarter of my life living in southern Florida and experienced a few hurricanes. My biggest worry is what if and what would the impact be if the Gulf was slammed with a category 4 or 5 hurricane? With hurricane Katrina that hit New Orleans a few years ago... The tidal/storm surge was well over 20 feet in height and pushed inland nearly 15 miles; We all saw the pictures on tv.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storm_surge
The point I'm trying to get to is... If this nightmare scenario occurs and a hurricane were to carry oil inland over a wide swath of land, not only it would be a ecological disaster, but truly do not see how BP could financially afford to cover such massive clean-up costs.
A hurricane could move the slick toward the coast and a storm surge or hurricane force winds could carry the oil inland, producing an even greater disaster than either a hurricane or oil slick alone. A hurricane or tropical storm in the Gulf would also impede the efforts to contain the leak and the slick. Some have even speculated that the oil slick may inhibit the formation of hurricanes in the Gulf by forming a barrier between the air and the water. Once a hurricane has formed, however, the slick would not affect its intensity or track. Another positive effect of a hurricane may be that the churning waves would hasten degradation of the oil by disbursing it.
Unfortunately, the chances that a hurricane will hit the oil spill are fairly good. Hurricanes in the early part of hurricane season historically develop in the Gulf region, whereas later hurricanes form in the Atlantic Ocean. Moreover, hurricane forecasters from the Colorado State University predict that the chances that a hurricane will enter the Gulf of Mexico this year are 44%, higher than the historic average of 30%.
I'm certainly not trying to be doom & gloom nor negative, but there are so many unknowns. This oil disaster is bad enough on it's own... But bloody hell if the "Perfect Storm" hits that region and carries the oil inland, what a mess! Not only it will devastate the environment, but everything will be covered in oil. i.e. houses, cars, buildings, phone boxes, buses etc... I think you see the point I'm trying to get across. Who and how would this be cleaned up. This would effect the everyday life of people and potentially in extreme cases, could make some areas un-inhabitable until it was cleaned up due to the health risks... Toxins, fumes....Last edited by bjlover; 06-26-2010, 12:12 AM.Arsewithclass has models who claim he wont pay them.

I wouldn't even buy BP in the single digits, way too volatile. Might as well invest in penny stocks.Comment

do you really think they will come back from it?You laughed at me when I told you to buy as much gold as you could afford back when it was around $600. Well, now I'm giving you another tip.
I don't think it's bottomed out yet but I've already bought a ton of it and will keep buying until it starts to raise again. IT WILL RISE AGAIN!!!
BP is too connected to Washington to go bankrupt (sleazy - check spelling for me) and they will come out on top of this mess. Oil is HUGE profits and no matter what fines or losses they have, it is nothing compared to what they will earn in 6 months.
Laugh it up, but bookmark this thread and come back to it in a year. Lets see who got rich.
Keep it cool, feel the breeze.

Problem is, we don't know what the liability side of the ledger is. The assets are there, but how hard are they going to be hit with cleanup costs, fines and liable suits. I would think BP as we know it is dead in 18 months... meaning stock holders get doodle y shit. Anyone seriously considering this stock should think of it as a bet on a footbal game and not an investment.AlanAgus1 at gmail dot com-------------------------------Comment

I haven't ready this thread (lolz way too lazy) but I hope the people that are buying BP stock currently understand the crisis that is peak oil. Save your money. Trust me.
Edit; well now that I think about it peak oil could possibly benefit BP in regards to stocks, but eventually it will crumble (less than 20 years if I had to guess). I guess its too soon to really know.
