Summary

BP shocks markets by firing chairman Albert Manifold just months after his appointment, citing governance and conduct concerns — a move that sent shares plummeting nine percent before rebounding. Interim chair Ian Tyler assures investors the company’s strategy remains intact and execution is on track. This isn’t the first leadership shake-up for BP, which is also pivoting back toward oil and gas under new CEO Meg ONeill. Analysts are watching closely to see if this turbulence undermines long-term momentum — or if it’s just a short-term blip in an otherwise resilient company.
