COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) Likes the yield generating companies but this one is probably a little bit too early. He would like it in the high $40’s before he would buy it.

BUY

Nice dividend payer. Price has come down a fair bit recently with the pull back in oil and gas stocks. Great track record of growing and continuing to pay out a steady distribution.

DON'T BUY

6.6% bond maturing 2021? This is unrated and is low-quality. Long-term for a convertible. When small companies have bonds coming due, they call them and then reissue longer-term ones to put off the need to put a lot of capital in to pay off debt. If you own, check out the conversion premium and the yield advantage over the common underlying. High risk. Better places to be.

COMMENT

Crescent Point (CPG-T) or Baytex Energy (BTE-T)? 2 very different companies. Baytex is 72% heavy oil which sells at a discount to regular oil. Crescent Point is very oily. Prefers Crescent Point. Dividend of 6.1 %.

BUY

Have intermediate/heavy oil, which can be taken out of the ground by drilling. Payout is covered extremely well. Very safe company and has great assets. 6% yield.

COMMENT

Feels the distribution is sustainable. An issue that is going to see come up is their heavy oil exposure. WTI is trading at a discount to brent pricing and Canadian heavy oil is trading at a discount to WTI. Those differentials have worked against them. Differentials have gone up because there is an excess of oil inventory in North America. Over time, those differentials will improve. This company has good assets so it's just a matter of unlocking the potential.

TOP PICK

6.625% bond maturing 2020. Good company. Just raised $300 million. Very attractive rate of return.

COMMENT

Great company with great production and great reserve growth. 70% of production is heavy oil. Distribution is safe. Better balance sheet than most of their peers. He has been selling his holdings into strength.

PARTIAL BUY

Very good company with very good assets and very good management. Its problem is that it is heavier oil. The differential is very wide, which is hurting companies like this. You could buy little bit now.

TOP PICK

Growing their reserves and paying a great dividend. Dividend is quite sustainable. Very well-managed. Good price.

BUY

Teck Resources (TCK.B-T) or Baytex (BTE-T)? Since he is a fan of dividends his choice would be Baytex. Stock has been a little weak lately because of management changes. Long term fundamentals are great. Oil prices have been the key driver for this stock. Feels the 6.3% dividend is sustainable.

TOP PICK

Has been clobbered in the last couple of months. Heavy oil producer as opposed to a gas stock. Dividend is quite safe and it has good reserve growth. Asset base is very solid and looks very good.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Heavy oil operator. Good cost structure but vulnerable to the markets and lowering oil prices. Under tax loss pressure we will see a much lower price. Could break $35. Dividend is safe.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Heavy oil producer out of western Canada.

COMMENT

Heavy oil has taken it on the chin lately. Likes this company and thinks it has a great name. Would be a buyer but there is no need to rush in.
