Biden wash trades oil, willing to lose $3 per barrel
This is quite a sophisticated game. They lose $3 per barrel on wash trading (buy for $73 and sell for $70) but they don't care as they can print these dollars as much as they want. The gain however is in billions for the end users, cheap oil keeps US economy going. I have to admit, this is pretty smart. But how long can it last as this is still a manipulation that market will figure it out at some point.

It can last longer than the dividend. Another 2 months of dividends lost just today.

Once the dividend is stopped the price of stock is going to go up. However before they stop dividends they will lower tha Capex which is not needed if the price of oil is manipulated.

You really need to look at the fundamentals. The only thing keeping the share price from falling further is the dividend.

I don't think so. Did you calculate what GXE is trading at on a $/boed basis? Do you even know how to do that?

Well hockey, all I can tell you is that GXE is trading at a valuation that is double what some of its peers are trading at. So if the dividend is removed, what is to stop the share price from falling in line with those peers?

Are you saying GXE can actually trade for 50 cents a share? That would have been amazing. Imagine how many shares I can buy with my dividends.

If GXE is 50 cents, there won't be any dividend.
