a market start of talent. and on your feet and people from driving that cars in the city for a day this week we'll see how it went. this is the to be business on robots, invalid. welcome to the program. rushes war in ukraine has sent energy prices through the roof as you'll know, the oil companies all the big witness, posting record profits for 2020 to this week, exxon mobil revealed it made $56000000000.00 last year. it's highest annual figure for a long time. the u. k. shell made 40000000000 it's most profitable 12 months in history and chevrons. 35000000000 is also a company record as well. not only did they benefit from surging on a gas prices, but they've also been cutting back on investments as well. a study suggests big of firms re invested 6 percent of their profits in 2021. u. s. president joe biden has

been critical saying that they should be investing to help bring down the fuel and she costs for americans. so let's cross over to the states and speak to a financial correspondent in new york in this quarter and asked him how likely is that to happen? yes, all these companies going to invest to try and ease the burden on americans. well that's usually the storyline from a lot of the big oil executives that with higher prices, there was definitely a bigger incentive to invest more pump more oil. and that keeps prices and check if that's really to happen. well, you just mentioned those figures that are not to mind blowing and having that set we have seen a price has come down quite a bit to the past couple of weeks and months just this week. the prices actually fall 8 percent gasoline prices in the united states are a far cry away from where there were past summer. but that is probably also because

the demand outlook is not that great and not so much that oil companies are doing too much. on the supply side, we spoke earlier this week when those massive profits from exxon came out, there was enough anger around them. but that anger is any kronos would have more results. the week's gone on. so for the bite and looking any more likely to do anything. well, i'm quite certain that we will hear a lot out of washington. but if we will also see the action, i'm a bit doubtful on that. i mean, there's all this talk whenever we see the thought she would share profits that there should be a windfall tech imposed, but that will be very difficult to get through divided congress. so that's one reason why nothing might happen, and then on the other side, it's not that long ago that actually the biden administration was asking the oil industry to pump and drill more. inflation is still

a big topic in the good nighted states. energy is part of the equation. actually there is a lot of speculation that the biden administration actually gives the thumbs up for new production in an alaska. so it's, it's, it's to side talk to modality. and so on one side, clearly those profits are pretty mind blowing, but on the other side, the country does one more oil and gas. yes. and unions. so much of this is down to those extraordinary prices that we have for oil and gas joined. 2022 bed 2, it's 283. it's actually compatible with $0.21. while this price is also going to be the same sort of levels of earnings for the company this year, rob it is for me at least hard to imagine to see such huge numbers. so again, it's not impossible, but i believe it's rather unlikely. as i mentioned at the beginning, we've already seen prices come down a bit. if you look at gasoline prices,

just as one example, the summer average here in the country, we had a gas price of more than $5.00. now that's more around $3.20 so unless something really crazy happens with the price of oil. again, i guess oil companies will not get such a huge profit, but i think us think it still will be enough for those companies to survive. so they will remain profitable for probably not as much as this as possible against go to new york for us. thank you very much. let's take a look at some of the other global business stories that are making the news. u. s . job gains searched unexpectedly last month as unemployment slips to its lowest level in more than 5 decades. there was largest economy added more than half a 1000000 jobs in january. growth was widespread. lead by gaines in leisure and hospitality. professional and business services and health care. in germany,

emissions under saturated traffic conditions, the frequency of the car free day should be increased, but on the other side of the scale, public transport should be improved, required or is okay. so do i think it's certainly contributes to the improvement of the environment. however, it can be complicated for those who make their livelihoods from ability and vehicles. i choose to ride my bike to day, and i had a very nice time. oh, york they put, i'm very busy with the new rack and we had only according to bogota environments, secretariat the car free day cut, c o. 2 emissions by 7600 tons. and just lastly, during the current of ours pandemic, you may remember hong kong introduce some of the strictest travel restrictions in the world and was also slower to lift them than many of its neighbors. now the international financial hub is trying to undo the damage done to its tourism industry by handing out free flight tickets following a colorful campaign,
