If a stock become unpopular enough for whatever reason, its price will fall. And if a share's price falls, can't that make debt more difficult to get hold of, as the company is worth less, so has less to borrow against? If so, wouldn.t that make funding new extractions more difficult and costly / less likely to happen? Could be wrong / missing something. |
the thing is you have disagreement amongst investors about the share. one group values the share of the future flow of earnings. if that (very conventional) approach means that the value of a share is X, they will buy it whenever the share is priced below X. another group don't want to hold the share whatever its price. if, because the second group sells, the price falls below X, that's an opportunity for the first group to make a profit - they will keep buying until the price is back to X. we are then back where we started, except that the ownership of the shares has shifted from the second group to the first.

The interesting thing is that, despite the big rises in commodity prices, energy companies are reluctant to invest in traditional fossil fuels. This may be partly because government policy is not conducive to such investment, but the consequence is that energy prices are likely to remain high because supply isn't going to be increased. |  |

Not forgetting all that furlough money paid to the comfortably well off, with no commuting expenses to squirrel away in their savings accounts to invest in more shares, spare houses and the like while many of the poorer got naff all! Criminal waste. |  |

Demand for gas is actually increasing, one of the major factors in the recent wholesale price rises. China is increasingly using it as a cleaner alternative to coal. Germany too, in fact the European Commission has recently changed its classification to a “sustainable investment”, so except demand to rise further in Europe. |  | |  |
