BP

[billy]

actually, BP has over the last month or so become quite weak as far as an oil company goes. i'm pretty certain it's rigs, both off and on sure will face extreme supervision.

i'm also sure that if this leak lasts another month, it's shares will fall even further making it even less powerful. if it pays out the alleged 10 bill to share holders and the mess with the leak isn't cleared up i guarantee those same shere holders will sell their stock as quickly as they can.

most of those shares will then be bought for a sone by the other oil companies who will from then on have a stake in its business without getting any of the blame. clever stuff.

for the gov of the usa, not to take drastic action would be silly. obama can't take the chance of seeming to be weak. he's already bigging it up with rhetoric as i type.

whatever happens, i don't think bp will be the company it once was.
even the petrol stations are being boycotted. the worlds conservationists, and the man in the street are angry. as are their share holders. as of now the only way for them to go in the foreseeable future is down. jmo
