Nice, probably will expire worthless but you never know haha....52 week low is 132.......I've written some on the big boys too (XOM primarily) but have been focusing more on smaller caps. When did you enter? Do you usually go about a month or so out?
Venezuela invasion bullish for OXY CVX XOM and USO?
I get what you’re saying, I do like a bit of a gamble but at the same time I agree with what you’re saying. The eventual goal if I were to snag 100 shares of XOM would be that acts as my “treasury” of sorts. Utilize the dividends and possible covered calls income to throw into small cap options that might take off. I’m trying to be somewhat risk averse in what I do. My general strategy for purchasing options has been only spend what I’ve gained in premium from selling calls or puts from my other stacks so if the trade goes south it doesn’t sting as bad.
Also not trying to put you down, I think XOM is for Berkshire Hathaway type or some other large funds, I am a true believer of oil because I haven’t bought options for 4 years. I think smaller caps will far outperform XOM, but we’re early right now and big names moves first, I am going to turn these options down the road into shares of smaller caps
XOM is definitely on the pricier side of the spectrum for me. Could afford 100 shares at most, enough to sell calls on it in the future but anyways. In your opinion what commodity play seems to be more lucrative for someone with a much smaller portfolio? Assuming affording 100 shares of XOM is the maximum available liquidity.

Your portfolio is tiny right now I don’t think shares are even worth the time, XOM is too large of a cap for you
It was ITM. I sold at a $119 strike price and it closed at $119.29. XOM.
hell yeah Southern Spear pump my XOM calls
No it doesn’t and I don’t know if you’re trying to gaslight me or yourself by saying that. I bought 100 shares of XOM at about $100 some time back. It’s now at $119. That’s $19 in share price increase and I’ve reinvested dividends all the way up and own over 100 shares now. The NAV went up and I have MORE shares Where is the capital erosion? Oh right, there isn’t any because the share price hasn’t eroded. It’s up $19 a share.
Have a lot of dry powder. I may just wait until after Wednesday to enter back in. Gold seems pricey. XOM is kissing ATH. META has the lowest MAG7 PE, but it's because Cuckerberg is shoveling money into a furnace as fast as he can. Gonna lurk all weekend for some ideas. I'm relying on you retards!
that explains why XOM is up

So bullish on XOM then right?
And XOM, oil stocks in general
Oil is flying today. Once again, I regret ignoring my own advise from a month ago and not going balls deep into XOM
looked over both $XOM and $CVX earnings and say both CEOs interviews while both doing great, $CVX just crushing it might join you w 50 and assess
XOM pumping! Everyone porting to safety in boomer oil!
Yeah just setup all sectors a couple individual stocks for tax-loss harvesting large, mid, small cap so it doesn't really matter long term if some go down - but COP kinda surprised me as a pretty healthy company, making money but stock just keeps going down even after today's earnings beat. I also own XOM.
XOM and CVX are integrated oil companies. They produce oil and then refine it, so if crack spreads widen and oil prices decline, they will end up between pure-play refiners and oil producers.
Fair point, but in the past month XOM and CVX are flat vs. COP down 8% - that is the part I don't understand.
I'm looking at XOM and it did a golden cross back in Oct. \*shrugs\*

I have a watchlist of stocks i named "Evil Corporation". Includes companies like BLK, BX, LMT, RTX, MS, JPM, GS, XOM, etc. Performing second only to the tech watchlist
I bought a ton of XOM in 2020 when the shut down happened and it hit $32/share and was paying 11% dividends......Oil is an inelastic good. It drives the entire global economy. That isn't changing anytime soon. There isn't enough electricity generation to replace it and with AI gobbling any surplus, oil will be king for a long time.
Yes in the long term efficient oil extraction will cause the oil price to be deflationary(this is Doombergs argument), however at these prices many companies have cut back on oil exploration and production. Exploration is the missing piece, as we need to replace legacy oil fields. Oil demand is still growing and for example US inventories are actually lower than average even with extra oil on the market from OPEC+. Solar is not relevant to oil. So this thesis might take a while to play out, but in the mean time you can collect dividend from companies like MER, WCP, PRB.A and XOM.
Things I have done. 1) I lowered my Monday S&P DCA. The remainder is sitting in a HYSA while I wait to see what happens. 2) My Friday S&P DCA from weekly day trading profits, I split into 1/3s. 1/3 goes into the S&P. 1/3 goes into HYSA waiting for what happens. 1/3 goes into stocks that are down that I like. For example, I was buying Amazon at 212 before it ran to 240+. That position is sitting up 15% currently in under 30 days. Taken some profits and letting the rest run. Other examples of stocks I have bought are KO, XOM, WMT, and many more. Made my first buy on META today since it’s down about 14% from the high. But I also make good money day trading so I feel pretty good about all of this.

Here we go, orange man is going to strike Venezuela, long XOM calls
Lets see what XOM can do with their earnings. I think that the increase of energy demand from the datacenters might result in more natural gas consumption
What do you guys think about XOM?
I feel guilty about it and question myself every day bc I’m a clean energy type of person, but I’m over a decade into my XOM position and not planning to sell any time soon.
I continue to hold 2000 shares I bought at $37.09 and $32.48 in Sept and Oct 2020. So gain of +233%. It is a fair value at the current prices. Fair, but not a big bargain. If I held XOM in a tax advantaged account I would sell at this price, but since it is in a taxable account I will just continue to hold it. Oil and gas will still be around for at least a couple more decades.
XOM and Chevron have earnings tomorrow I think. I would go further out if I were you.
Top 5 years in the markets were 34-47% returns. We are currently at ballpark 17% for S&P and 24% for nasdaq. Feels like 2021 again except we are going into rate cuts this time. Not something I am betting against but I have done a few things. 1) Lowered my weekly DCA into S&P by 66%. 2) Trimming profits on individual stock positions as we go. 3) 33% goes into HYSA waiting for a correction. 33% goes towards stocks that are down but I think are good. For example, I was buying Amazon, XOM, KO and others while they were down. I am now up on all of those and have been trimming profits on those. Been swing trading a bunch of other stocks as well which is going great.
I agree. I keep most of my investments in good dividend stocks that I will own no matter what happens (not like Coke or XOM are going out of business) while playing with a few k in another account, slowly adding to my dividend account with money made on options and bets while the getting is good.
That was literally my first thought. Add that to about 3000-5000 jobs lost in the American oil fields this year, also (between COP, XOM and CVN).
The math checks out. What everyone calls the ‘AI revolution’ is mostly an infrastructure play, billions poured into concrete, chips, and megawatts to power the next generation of data centers. Pay attention to PWR, BE, and maybe XOM.
Reasonable question. Only very recently … like this week, I’m trying something new. I think of it like “fish traps” for dividend aristocrats. Keep about 100-200 on hand of MO, XOM, TGT, et. One side of the basket is low delta CSPs. It will only collect new shares if they are very cheap. On the other side, selling CCs. It will only let shares escape if they are really big sales. If inventory gets low (100) tighten up the CCs and loosen up the CSP. If inventory gets too high, tighten up CSPs and loosen up CCs. Income / gains from: 1. CSP premiums. 2. CC premiums. 3. Dividends. 4. Appreciation 5. Constantly lowering the ACB Now, well established dividend payers tend to be low premiums. So it’s an empirical question how the total yield on this entire strategy will pay off. I’ve got a few different portfolios right now of about equal size, so I’m going to try this in one and see how it compares.
If XOM is at $1165, then a 0.7 delta 1/28 ITM LEAP that trades at $16 feels insanely good value to me. Even with the peanuts poor man's CCs you can generate on XOM, this still makes sense. What am I missing?
Prime winners with GE and XOM of BBB bill in 2022

Barrel bros assemble - XOM pumping!
this has been my strategy for the past few months. jacked to the gills on CNQ, XOM, PR, and EOG.
The failing fiat currency only is screaming buy hard assets. So gold/silver and their mining stocks, timber REITs, oil stocks, income producing real estate...... I am sitting on about 5% physical gold/silver, a good chunk of GDX, NEM AEM B and lots of CVX XOM BP
XOM at like 0.69 / share. we go way back
Dude put what’s left in a rock solid blue chip that pays a nice dividend (e.g XOM) that u roll into more shares, set it and forget it. It might take a few years, but you’ll eventually be back in black.
OP if it makes you feel any better I lost 90% of my wealth in 2008-2009. I was in high school and saved $13k from selling candy and having part time jobs. I invested into two stocks ACAS - American Capital Strategies a mezzanine financing company that lended money to various small/midsized businesses (roughly $10-$100 million in assets) and based out of Bethesda Maryland and EXM - Excel Maritime Carriers a dry bulk ocean shipping company based out of Greece (the country). Both proceeded to shit the bed. You have to diversify and buy lots of different companies. Maybe try buying SPY. If not you have to start investing for the long term into some safer companies like: CAT, CSX, ORCL, BX, MCD. Here are a few more: MSFT, XOM, PEP, BK, and RSG. Good luck, you can recover from your losses. If nothing else, just buy SPY (the entire S&P 500), and never sell, no matter what. Set it to dividend reinvest.
Your best bet is to simply diversify. Buy some foreign ETFs, buy some long term bonds, gold, non-tech blue chip stocks like WMT, XOM, PG, JNJ, JPM, etc, and keep a small amount in tech. If the bubble pops, AI/tech stocks and meme stocks will take big hits, but the rest of the market may be relatively okay. When the dot com bubble burst, the SP500 was down about 35% while the NASDAQ went down 60-70%. The DOW (only 30 stocks) was down less than 20%. Many big blue chip companies continued to climb in value while also paying dividends. Gold continued up.
Did you buy XOM at 35 when oil was -$ per barrel son?
Mangos' telling me I did not buy enough XLE or XOM calls. Barrel bros are back!
M & A reports. EOG, FANG, CVX, XOM, BUI, etc.🚀
I think GOOGL/ GOOG is a long term hold. I’m holding leaps on GOOGL, NBIS, UBER and TSM. They’re all deep ITM (except UBER) so I plan to roll them for the next 10 years to maintain exposure. I sell weekly or monthly calls against those holdings to wash theta and chip away at cost basis. I’m holding MSTR shares long term - it’ll either work out or it won’t, but I could see it above $700 at some point in 2026. As long as the price floor keeps increasing YoY, I’m comfortable holding through the volatility. I’m also holding the XOM shares I bought in the $30s when oil futures went negative during covid. Lastly I’ve been trying to snowball JEPQ and JEPI in my Roth, so that’s a long term hold. Shoot…I was only supposed to give one. I guess I’d have to go with MSTR. I wanna punch myself every day for selling RDDT during the April selloff. I should probably get back in at some point.
I liquidates my 5 shares of XOM and bought in, which seems to have really kicked things off. That's where the money came from.
Buying XOM calls Monday because I’m a retard that follows strangers on the internet
He’s been pretty consistent is discouraging callers from taking a position in OXY. And since Buffett acquired it, that’s been sound advice as it hasn’t gone anywhere. He’s pumped a lot of other energy stocks over that time frame but not OXY. As of the last couple weeks he’s been pushing people out of things like XOM and CVX.
Lemme put yall on to a crazy options play. 75$ Leaps for exxon (XOM) with a Jan 2028 expiry. Yo, for real this shit has no premium whatsoever. The stock is currently at like 112 and the premium is like 39$. A 2 dollar move in 2 and a half years?!
XOM to cut 2000 jobs globally. Bullieve it er not, Bullish.
XOM LEAPS locked and loaded. Everyone's way too bearish on energy.
Buying good companies at deep value is the foundation of good investing. Does not matter if talking dividend or growth. 2008 was the buying chance of a generation, we had another one in 2020, I was a little too young for 2008 but 2020 made my retirement, backed up the truck on the dividend payers at historic values. Up 300-400% on some of them from that point like XOM.
10Y is up 100% not including 5% dividend. This stock is doing incredibly well compared to PFE, BMY, hell even XOM
would be in a better spot if my XOM shares didn't get called away a few years ago. was buying at around $30/share, and got called away around $50 so made a profit, but 800 shares times $60-70 worth of growth since then (plus $4/year in dividends the whole time) sure would be nice. wouldn't sting so much if i didn't put the money from that sale into EXPI right before its split. that did not pan out well. (fortunately other things did pan out, ESPECIALLY this year)
Someone LOLd me for playing XOM dip and I made 140% on my calls.
Bought XOM calls yesterday, idk why, just felt like it. Can someone explain why it's going up? Recession fears indicating a shift away from speculative stocks to more solid cash flow stocks?
Anyone in on XOM? Lands 113-115 EOW?
>Oil companies have a 3.5-6% dividend yield. Oil usage isn't going anywhere. It isn't an exciting investment but it isn't a bad investment if you are a dividend investor. u/Mariox No they don't. Good companies don't have 6% dividends when FFR is rapidly dropping. Fed target is 3.5% this year, then soon after 3.25%. Average junk bond yield today is 6.4%. You don't have those yields without enormous concerns of liquidity or growth issues. The stable ones like XOM have 3.4%.
Or the imminent insolvency of XOM and CVX circle mid-2020
Making money in companies I don’t know (SOFI, GLXY, TLRY) Not doing shit with boomer companies that actually do things (XOM, CVX, COP, Netflix) Makes sense
Action on thesis: I don't know shit about fuck, so I am loaded up on construction aggregates (VMC and MLM - pent up public and private demand and decreasing rates), AI (GOOG and NVDA), US Bancorp (rate cuts), and a little taste of XOM just because it's been lagging. I don't want anything consumer-sensitive.
I don't think I have great moral high ground here, but I am 100% certain that owning stock is relatively less unethical than buying from Amazon for the following reasons: * owning AMZN stock doesn’t directly fund Amazon’s operations, while shopping with Amazon absolutely does * owning shares comes with voting rights, so in theory one could push for better corporate behavior (remember what happened to XOM and Shell in 2021?) * when you buy shares (except in an IPO) you are not giving money directly to AMZN, but rather to another shareholder who is selling
Wow Exxon mobile grifty af. They introduced a system where all shareholders automatically vote with their board if they don’t vote. SEC approved this system. That’s why XOM is soaring today.
$VGT has done great and $XOM seems cheap I think ? What do I know
ADBE put HOFT call UNH call but waiting for a pullback first XOM call SMR put
I remember my first buying 10 XOM at 55.
Yeah, energy’s always ripe for M&A when crude’s stuck in the mud. Majors are sitting on fat cash piles — XOM just closed the $60B Pioneer deal, CVX scooped Hess, and I wouldn’t be shocked to see more mid-cap shale names get taken out if valuations stay compressed. Watch the Permian and Gulf Coast players — that’s where the consolidation game is heating up the most.
XOM dividends thanks
Tho some should be. XOM, JCP, and WAL did well over several decades.
Lots of research and looking at American companies that will go no where when you cash out of the next best stock being discussed. Made bank on Roblox IPO opening week, had XOM as the transfer when it was around $40 I think. But XOM was one of 10 that I was viewing as being hit and they are American AF to go anywhere. I played Alibaba long term because they are essentially Amazon of that hemisphere, while shorting any stock ticker that remotely said they were competitive surrounding China. I’ve lost a bit using this strategy because it’s the gd market but I’m more green than red
A better question is “What were the top 3 stock bunches recommended in 1980,1990,2000?” If you go back - you would be holding some XOM, JCP and WAL Today’s giants may not be that well off in a decade.
I’m probably a few months late to the party, but SLI is such an obvious buy it’s laughable. Only way it doesn’t end up at $25-30 in the next 12-18 months if if XOM buys them out, which is likely and will be at least 2-3x current ask
yeah i lowkey got baited in XOM now im holding it
