BP is a U.K. oil and gas company that has been slowing its shift to renewables and putting more money back into oil and gas production.
What tends to move it. Oil and gas prices, refining margins and its debt reduction plan are what investors look at first.
Where the case gets weaker. Falling oil and gas prices or weaker refining margins would slow the debt reduction plan investors are counting on, and having pulled back from renewables, BP has less of a diversified buffer if fossil fuel prices stay depressed.
