Oil will be back, and RDSA is in terms of valorisation very cheap.

The run up on oil stocks has quickly resulted in an oversold run down. I can't imagine that this stock will trade much below $70. Could wait a little while longer before stepping in but a shift to the upside looks much more likely. We and the rest of the world have a thirsty appetite for oil that does not appear to be subsiding anytime soon.

Royal Dutch shell is very involved in alternative energy too, Good safeguard.

RDS has a very low P/E below 9! They are buying back shares obviously believing the are undervalued too.

Has beat earnings forcasts for the last eight quarters but not in the spotlight as other major oil may mean better value for your investment dollar. They only seem to get bad press in the U.S.

Royal Dutch Shell applied for a patent for an extraction method that cleanly and profitably removes oil from Shale.

Acquiring Shell Canada and its interest in the Canadian Oil sands looks promising. Canada certainly is a great business partner. This is an area of resources that will be integral for the future of oil. Our neighbors to the North are a friendly, ethical and non hostile partners. Hey and they speak the lanquage too Eh. As efficiencies for extracting the oil from the sands get more efficient profits will increase.

If the rumors of a joining forces with BP come true you will be investing in the largest oil company on earth! Think of the efficiency savings the joining of these two forces would mean for profitability.

This post is about fundamental internal management.

RDS has had huge success in buying its own companies - it got into the US in a big way when it purchased the remaining shares of Shell Oil Co (USA) and now its done the same with Shell Canada. It has had less success in replacing reserves organically.
This is a high tech E&P company - it can make hydrocarbons profitably in very bad geological conditions, and so it often gets the really tough fields when the pie is divided up by foreign governments. They are not as good as Exxon Mobil in creating low cost production facilities (example - Shell's new deepwater Nigerian facilities versus Exxon's Angola strategy of design once/build often/do it cheaper each time.
What RDS can do that Exxon Mobil can't do as well is to make the diplomatic deal and to have sustained presence in a country, no matter how difficult (examples are Nigeria, Lybia, Iran, and new efforts in Central Europe). This risked portfolio of international adventurism is also a weakness - a distributed structure of control helped lead to the reserves overstatements and the 25% restate.

I look to RDS to go to $85 within 2 years. Disclosure - I worked for RDS for 31 years and hold stock options.

Stock is way undervalued at PE around 10 and yielding 3.5%. Quote is off 10% of recent top, so this is a great opportunity.

company is undervalued still due to last few years problems, which are basically solved now. shareholders litigation are being solved at the moment. purchase of all stock of shell canada has been completed which means the total proven reserves hv grown considerable thanks to the enormous sand-oil fields which are now in rd posession. company is a steady grower and payer of dividends. is presently grossly undervalued.

Deep water drilling is becoming more and more accurate and productive... consider Shell to profit regardless.
