  • Oxy went from being almost bankrupt in the 1950s to one of the biggest oil & gas companies in the world throughout the 2000s to almost bankrupt again. They built their empire almost exclusively through numerous acquisitions. But was their acquisition of Anadarko Petroleum their last?

    Great video! Only recommendation is to reduce the background volume relative to the voice. Can be distracting with the saxophone. Just my take.

    Would be nice if you include info such as Buffet receiving shares as dividend each quarter, diluting our stocks, and more importantly the lower the stock price the more number of shares he will receive. What do you all think Buffet would do now?

    Good analysis on Oxy but the background music was so loud and annoying you could hardly understand what was being said . Please redo this video with no background music, speak slower and make this video longer. Oxy has had such an interesting history that just skimming over it does not do it justice.

    Very well covered. Seems that the company’s DNA was built on acquisitions. In the long run the company was bound to make an acquisition that would destroy the firm. It’s name is Andarko. Once again, great historical coverage of the firm

    Took a huge position at an avg share price of 12.70 and will continue to hold on till the company becomes more bigger. this is a great investment in my opinion with largest assets and a majority stake in the permian basin and the anadarko aquitision. the only thing to improve in the company is the CEO and management which is now taken care by mr. carl icahn who is now one of the majority shareholders and will work to improve management. Will expect to achieve a good return on this investment.

    Right now Occidental Petroleum is a great buy. The stock price is $12 a share and the Dividends are at a 25.3%. This company hasn't fallen because if the company feel then it won't exist today. This company does have it's ups and downs but right now with the gas prices down right now it's time to buy the stock.

I bought it at $4 a share and the dividends are at 60% when I bought it. before the pandemic the GasLog stock was in the high 20's. This stock goes up and down dramatically with in short periods of time so it's a stock for those who love the pasive income dividends and it's the kind of stock where you should keep on adding money to it to increase the dividend payments.
