Chevron

and provides administrative, financial, management and technology support to
the United States and international subsidiaries that engage in fully
integrated petroleum operations, chemicals operations, mining activities, power
generation and energy services. Upstream operations consist primarily of
exploring for, developing and producing crude oil and natural gas; processing,
transportation and regasification associated with liquefied natural gas;

Yesterday
Chevron reported Q4 earnings of $2.57 per share, $0.01 worser that the Estimate
of $2.58; revenues fell 7.3% year/year to $56.2 bln vs the $71.26 bln
consensus. As a result, the share price fell sharply, I thought of taking
advantage of it and I bought Chevron to my portfolio. I still believe that
Chevron are able to pay a growing dividends to its owners.

Nice purchase DividendHawk. I've bought some RDS this week. Good luck with your shares of Chevron!
ReplyDeleteNice buy Hawk. I have held CVX for years and have always been impressed with the ROE and my returns. I was watching it yesterday, but picked up Unilever instead. Three of my friends bought CVX though, so you're in great company :o) Have a great weekend

Nice buy DH! I also purchased some more shares, but not nearly as many as you. This is a great price to get into CVX. Over a 3.5% yield that should continue to grow in the 7-10% range. Not bad at all.
ReplyDeleteNice purchase DH! I think the yield combined with potential future dividend growth sets you up well. The recent dips have created several buying opportunities for DG investors.
