Dividend watch: whoo-hoo. Both Suncor and TSM increase dividend (fact check me on these; could be wrong):
- SU: to 36.60 cents; previous: 33.10 cents; in September, 2021, it was 16.6 cents.
- TSM: to 46.246 cents; was 39 cents; wow, is that an 18.5% increase?
- a reader reminded me that AAPL paid its dividend today; 23 cents / share
Inflation watch:May 12, 2022, "inflation watch" is occasionally updated here:
- eggs are back! Plenty of eggs at both Target and Albertson's
- Target: $3.19 for a dozen
- Albertson's: $2.79 for a dozen
- I haven't had an egg in about two weeks; prior, one to two eggs for breakfast, now, none in past two weeks
Natural gas fill rate: this is why I don't follow natural gas all that much -- it looked close; natural gas fill rate was going to drop below the five-year low -- close, but no cigar; link here:
SPR release? Biden's oil going to Europe. Link here.
Europe is set to receive more cargoes of U.S. crude from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) as the European Union discusses an oil embargo on Russia and looks to reduce reliance on Russian oil, Bloomberg reported on Thursday, citing tanker-tracking data and sources with knowledge of the shipments.
In recent weeks, Europe has increased purchases of U.S. crude as it considers the details of a ban on imports of Russian crude and refined products.
A week after the European Commission officially proposed a full ban on Russian crude and oil product imports by the end of the year, the EU is still scrambling to find a common position, trying to persuade Hungary and some other central European countries to drop their opposition to an embargo.
