PBR

Sold my portfolio to invest in my wartime portfolio. PBR and CPB. Oil and essential staples. I'm up 36% ytd.

Just long PBR

Exxon would actually be far from my top choice if I was betting on war in Iran. A lot of their Middle East production has been shut down just like everyone else's. It would be much better to invest in an oil company with less exposure to the Middle East. PBR, FANG, DVN and EOG all come to mind. I haven't checked, but I'll bet they're all outperforming Exxon since traffic through Hormuz shut down.

Quienmemandovenir

Yo estaba igual que tu. Ahora agregué WMT, LLY, PBR, DBC y CAT. Tampoco es que estén subiendo (excepto PBR), pero me siento algo más diversificado. Igual sigo teniendo MU, NVDA, GOOG, en algún momento van a rebotar

XorAndNot

Yeah, some BP, PBR

I don’t have a move to post. The war trading is momentum trading. My rule for momentum trading is be the first in and the first out. It’s late to buy into an oil or fertilizer move. I should probably realize the PBR gains about now And I full accept that I can’t perfectly time the market thus the DCA’ing in with the Roth

Spezalt4

Liquidated the Roth when 🥭 said the war was complete. I don’t allow myself to gamble the retirement money so no puts. I’ll start DCA’ing in once we go boots on the ground Full ported PBR/A at 11.82 and long PBR at 17.02 in the gambling account. Market is way too volatile with 🥭 tweeting to manipulate pricing for me to be confident in FD’s. Happy to hold the oil stock gains

OldNScared

PBR is carrying my portfolio. Took a good dip today and I bought again.

happy123z

These oil stocks have been slowly rising since early February as people smarter than I figured the military build up meant Iran war. So this interruption was priced in without us noticing. It will probably continue bouncing between 1 and 1.40 for awhile and you can swing that and many other similar stocks, but probably not gonna double unless a lot more damage happens to mideast infrastructure. These prices are for if the situation stays bad. If and when it ends they will drop back near before quick. But long term these guys are drilling lots of horizontal wells soon and their financials aren't too bad. If the world doesn't end its probably a good long term hold. Also VG, WEAT, and PBR.

EmbarrassedPart1256

$EC & $PBR are both ripping into 52-week highs day after day. They're well-established & didn't hedge their profits at a low price. I wish I could say I bought either one but nope 🤣 I bought into $EC @ $13.17 & rode it for some (minimal) gains before feeling like it was overvalued & the situation was too unstable & then I sold... Gains are gains

Yep, that's correct- I've become convinced the Permian Basin & Brazil are inversely correlated, became more apparent with the Hormuz debacle. I'm primarily in $PBR calls- more room to run

longisthewinter

Oh ok, so you're saying $PBT's earnings movement will have an inverse correlation to $PBR's movement. I like $PBR too, had a successful calls trade for their earnings this month, and I agree they are well positioned to benefit from the reduction in oil supply elsewhere due to the ME situation.

External_Anteater730

I know- $PBR's earnings already happened, but it'll go up on Friday with $PBT's earnings going down

longisthewinter

I'm a bit confused, are you saying $PBR or $PBT will go up, as you seem to be swapping their tickers at various points in this writeup? Also $PBR already had earnings on March 5.

External_Anteater730

https://www.stocktitan.net/news/PBT/permian-basin-royalty-trust-announces-february-cash-distribution-g7fd6bxk56nl.html https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/stocks/pbt/earnings $PBR is adjacent to $PBT, $PBR earnings on Friday and they have an excess cash distribution. Oil right now is $100/bbl and will go up as the war extends- high oil prices suppresses demand long term, short term projects get punished over longer periods if sustained. The Permian Basin is filled with many of these short term projects, and $PBR is not a good sign. $PBT has the cost advantage in very low lifting costs at $6.50/bbl relative to the rest of the competition... And the scale to boot with offshore drilling vs their American counterparts. Also, we're literally begging the Brazilians not to sell to China: https://www.scmp.com/news/us/article/3346804/washington-signals-it-wants-china-kept-out-brazils-largest-port-auction Based on the way things are escalating with the Strait we'll see Brazil open up to China given their desperate need, America be damned. American oil will reflect that, like with $PBR's earnings- and $PBT will moon

I’ve heard about this, but there are some safe names that can’t be manipulated by the inevitable shorting or geopolitical decision making that affects WTI or Brent right? Something like PBR or other ADR oil tickers?

XLE is the easiest most straightforward trade. I own calls and shares. 40% of XLE is XOM and CVX. XOM is the industry leader, it moved first started from new year and has already moved a lot. CVX chart is fresher imho. So XLE is dominated by the integrated oil and gas industry group. These are the biggest companies like XOM and CVX. There are several other industry groups within the energy sector. Except for oil services, currently all other industry groups trade with crude oil after the Iran war started. Oil services currently trade inverse of crude oil, and more in line with the S&P. I guess cause oil services is more about demand while other groups in energy are benefiting from supply constraints just my guess. After the volatility in crude oil settles down, I expect oil services to continue going up just like they were already doing before the war. So I expect this to be dip hopefully I own OIH the ETF. When Iran situation alleviates and the US dollar stops getting a bid as safe haven, I expect international oil stocks to outperform the US, Canada has several good ones IMO and SU have been very strong. I also own PBR and WDS.

Trump will only ever see what he wants to see at this point. He's the living embodiment of "the emperor has no clothes". The only change of course from the US will be one of three things. Trump gets bored and just removes forces from the area (and pretends everything is fine now), he puts boots on the ground and commits us to another 20 year war, or economic devastation becomes to great and the world powers try to organize a face saving treaty for all the countries involved.  I see where you're coming from on PBR.A, but I see it as both a long and short term play. It's definitely going to have a quick rise for those looking at a short term investment, because of the crisis and the unanswerable question of when does this all go back to normal.  But I think long term they'll be strong as well since it's going to take a good amount of time for these gulf countries to repair there economic infrastructure. Brazil has the benefit of being untouched with a ready to go enterprise and none of the trade relation issues

kenseyx

If you believe the strait will be closed for long, there are still decent value oil&gas stocks out there, even in countries that have nothing to do with all of this, like PBR (Brazil), ARX.TO (Canada), WDS (Australia LNG).

Shoutout to the one who mentioned PBR during the weekend. Though I did not buy the stock as i don't know much about oil.

jrex035

>XLE is completely flat since the war began. That's because XLE is full of companies that have exposure to the ME and are being forced to cap their production or have even suffered damage from Iranian attacks. PBR is up nearly 13% in the last week on the other hand and has zero exposure to the ME

Hamzehaq7

totally agree with you! PBR.A seems like a solid play right now, especially with all this chaos in the Gulf. oil prices have been all over the place, and with the US ramping up military activity, it’s gonna keep fluctuating. that -0.11% dip today doesn’t really show the whole picture, since the whole market's reacting to geopolitical stuff. and you're right, the constant shutdowns in the Gulf are just gonna put more pressure on supply. if Iran retaliates, we might see even crazier price spikes. I think the safer bet is definitely on companies like Petrobras, especially if they can capitalize on this mess. how do you think this plays out in the next few months?

PM_ME_ROMAN_NUDES

Brazilian here. PBR is state controlled in it's majority, in the event of a oil price rise the government uses the company to "ease" the petrol and diesel prices on it's own money. It happened before and will likely happen this year, since it's election year. I don't own PBR here, but I do own a oil minor called PRIO3

PBR.A is the big oil play today. Posted and commented about it on Saturday. Now up 4.5% today as of me typing this.  Big breakdown as to my rationale behind it over on r/stocks

jrex035

Not much honestly. I'd recommend looking at energy companies without exposure to the ME which will benefit from high prices but not be at risk of attacks. PBR is a good option imo. Other than that, I'd take some profits if you can and trim any positions you aren't 100% sure of over the long haul

PBR

External_Pattern9950

the dividend yield on PBR.A is attractive but the political risk discount exists for a reason. petrobras has a long history of the brazilian government treating it as a policy tool rather than letting it operate as a pure commercial entity. pricing caps on domestic fuel, forced investment in money-losing refineries, dividend policy changes after elections. the current administration is more market-friendly but that can change in one election cycle. if you are going to hold PBR.A, size it as a speculative position not a core holding, and understand that the dividend can get cut with very little warning when the political winds shift. the A shares at least give you slightly better governance rights than the common.

RationalHumanistIDIC

I am with you on this have watched it go up and down with the tides of changing leadership in Brazil. I am currently buying PBR hopefully not regretfully.

purplefloo16

Three reasons. The first PBR.A has a slightly better dividend payout. Second if I posted about PBR, I figured I'd just be met with a thousand and one Pabst Blue Ribbon jokes, and that would take away from what I'm trying to convey Thirdly, PBR.A has four letters in its name compared to three in PBR. More letters equals more better stock, it's basic math. Plus that extra letter is an "A" which is a grade I occasionally got in school (not math though) 

JuanPabloElTres

How come you're going with the preferred stock PBR.A over just PBR?

Kaymish_

PBR.A is one of my biggest holdings.

endeend8

I think PBR will climb because of the obvious war and shortage in oil and potential realignment if supply but as someone who has been in and out of PBR for 20 years it needs to be called out that every govt uses PBR as a personal piggy bank. The govt can replace the board and always do with their pro socialist chair warmers

purplefloo16

I'm about to explain to you jabroni's why PBR.A, otherwise known as Petrobras, is the new big play in oil. Some of you might be aware that there's a war going on in Iran. Despite that a lot of the focus is inexplicably about what China is going to do about their oil shipments from the Gulf.  For those of you not keeping track at home, China predominantly gets its oil from the Gulf countries, Russia, and Venezuela. But since we have war in Iran, oil isn't flowing out from the gulf. We had the kidnapping of the president and the confiscation of Venezuelan oil by some fat fuck, so oil isn't coming from there. And Ukraine is doing a dope job knocking out Russian oil refineries. You put all that together and you have a tough oil market in general, but more so for China. So how does PBR.A factor in here. First off Petrobras is not just the biggest oil company in Brazil, but the biggest company in Brazil, period. They just released there Q4 financials showcasing record profits (nearly tripling it's previous high $19.6 billion vs $7.5 billion) and having the backing of the Brazilian president for further exploration and expansion. Here's an article saying exactly what i just said so you know it must be true: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/brazils-petrobras-sees-profit-soar-021602329.html Now tripling there profits is cool and all, but you may find yourself asking have any other oil companies done this too? Well I don't have the answer to that since I didn't look it up, but probably not. But even if other companies did triple there profits they still don't have the one thing that sets Petrobras apart from everyone else.  That thing is Petrobras being from Brazil, means it apart of BRICS. Your probably wondering what BRICS is. In this case it's not a heavy building material a little Irish boy, lost in the city, throws at the Wet Bandits. What it actually is, is a collection of countries involved in some intergovernmental organization economic something or other that fosters tight relations to counteract NATO. And I'll let you guess what the B and C stand for in BRICS... That's right Crazil and Bhina.  So China is in need of oil, there usual go to trading partners are fucked. But here is Brazil with Petrobras (PBR.A) able to step in and fill the void. China already has good trading relations with them and has even invested in the company. Look another link saying what i just said https://www.riotimesonline.com/petrobras-courts-chinese-investors-to-revive-brazils-shipbuilding-sector/ What does all this mean? Well China needs oil. Brazil not only has oil, but has a big financially successful oil company that has the backing of the president as it expands even further. And since it's very unlikely we're getting a US invasion of Brazil, China has there answer to there oil woes. All this, in my non-expert opinion, means this stock is probably going up. They were 4.5% on Friday alone, and nearly 40% the last 3 months Disclaimer: I don't know shit about fuck, this is just my take on the PBR.A stock

ApprehensiveSite752

“Here’s a rough estimate of what $1,000 invested in PBR and reinvested dividends (after U.S. tax on dividends) might have turned into over a 10-year period, based on historical performance — with important caveats about taxes and volatility. ⸻ 📈 Past 10-Year Performance (With Dividends Reinvested) • Reliable historical total-return data (price + dividends reinvested) suggest PBR generated very strong long-term gains over the past decade — in one chart, a 1,555% total return over ~10 years (~32–33% compound annual growth) is shown.  • Another published metric shows ~1,620% total return with dividends reinvested over 10 years (32.9% CAGR), compared with ~976% if dividends were not reinvested.  Historical example: If this very strong past performance continued identically, $1,000 would have grown to roughly ~$16,000 – $17,000 over 10 years with dividends reinvested (that’s ~15–17× the original investment). 📌 Important: Past performance is not a reliable predictor of future returns. This is just an example based on historical data, which includes years with extraordinary returns — and PBR returns are extremely volatile and tied to oil prices, exchange rates, and Brazil’s political/economic environment.  ⸻ 🇺🇸 Tax on Dividends — How It Would Affect Returns For a U.S. investor holding PBR ADRs: 📌 Withholding Before Reinvestment • Dividends paid on PBR are typically subject to a Brazilian withholding tax (often around 15% on dividends before they reach U.S. accounts). • After that, as a U.S. investor, you pay U.S. federal tax on dividend income at your ordinary or qualified dividend rate (depending on your tax situation). • You cannot reinvest the gross dividend — only what you actually receive after tax. 💡 Many ADR holders report that ~10–11% of the dividend amount is lost to foreign tax and ADR fees before it’s received and reinvested.  🧮 Effect on Reinvestment So if a dividend was announced at, say, a 7–9% yield historically, you might actually receive ~6–7% after Brazilian withholding + ADR fees. Then U.S. tax applies on that received dividend, meaning the net amount reinvested is lower. That reduces the effective CAGR compared with pre-tax returns shown in many total-return calculators. Example assumption: • Dividend yield historically ~8–9% (varies by year).  • Loss to foreign/ADR fees: ~10% of the dividend.  • U.S.Dividend tax (e.g., 15–20% depending on bracket) on what you receive. That might cut net dividend reinvestment to roughly ~5–6% effective yield on average over many years before reinvesting. The relative impact isn’t enormous compared with total return, but it meaningfully reduces dividend-boosted compounding. ⸻ 🧮 Rough Tax-Adjusted Projection If we roughly adjust the historical total return for net dividend reinvestment rather than gross reinvestment: • Historical total return (32–33% CAGR) includes full dividends reinvested with no tax drag. • After including withholding + U.S. dividend tax, the effective compounded return might reasonably be ~2–4 percentage points lower per year — i.e., something like 28–30% annualized over the same period (this is a back-of-envelope reduction, not precise). Using that adjusted figure: Assumed CAGR Value of $1,000 after 10 years 28% ~ $10,600 30% ~ $13,800 32% ~ $17,200 (closer to raw pre-tax historical) So a plausible tax-adjusted historical outcome might be ~$10,000–$14,000 by reinvesting dividends after U.S. taxes — if performance looked like the past decade. ⚠️ This is only a rough historical extrapolation, not a forecast. Actual results depend on future returns, oil prices, foreign tax treaties, your tax rate, and dividend policy. ⸻ 📌 Key Uncertainties to Keep in Mind • Dividends are not guaranteed. Petrobras has changed payout patterns in recent years, and political/government influence can affect distributions.  • Oil price exposure means volatility. Returns can swing wildly year to year. • Currency (BRL vs USD) movements also materially impact ADR returns. • Foreign taxes and ADR fees vary over time. ⸻ Summary Scenario Estimated Value in 10 Years (Net after Reinvested Dividend Taxes) Historical-like strong performance (net reinvested) ~$10,000–$14,000 Raw historical total return pre-tax dividends ~$16,000–$17,000 Conservative / more tax drag or lower returns Much lower or even flat (not guaranteed at all) ⸻ If you want, I can run a spreadsheet-style projection using specific tax rates (e.g., your U.S. dividend tax bracket) and dividend yield assumptions to see more precise scenarios.”

PBR was a whole thing in other Reddit subs with almost a cult following at some point. But problem always ends up being what you mention. Everyone abuses it for cash when in power. The only thing right and left agree on in Brazil. 🤣🤣

Lol I have both of those. And I don't have too many individual stocks. I love buying and selling PBR. Have bought and sold many times over the years. Paid sub-3 for it about 10 years ago. I just loaded up at 12 and hit my first sell order at 16 this week. TEVA I started buying almost 10 years ago when it fell from like 40. Unfortunately bought at like 25. But I bought it all they down to like 8 and finally was vindicated this year.
