Up 6% in only six months.....

6% of nothing is.........they were at the floor after 20 years of decline. Note that was revenues, not employment, nor profits. As the article itself notes, this rebound follows the largest global one-year drop, ever, despite plenty of down years in the last two decades.

I agree with you...Trump is a talented 'Miracle Worker'...and that 6% was in four months....give it a year or so and yer gonna regret not purchasing the stock....

no, I'll pass. I still hold onto Exxon Mobil for two reasons: 1) dividends, they are sitting on years of profits pulling interest and 2) they are slowly getting into a strong positon for solar and even battery technology, once again due to that pile of cash in #1. Coal, not so enticing, thanks.

ahem, the rules. Not arguing the statement, but the placement.
