COMMENT

One of the best large cap companies. Like a lot of the large cap E&P companies, it is showing discipline. Cut their cap-x because of high service costs for drilling companies. Caution: - Chewed through their cushion as relates to the Horizon Oil Sands project and will probably have some cost overruns.

BUY

It is 1 of only 19 companies in the TSX that has such rapid margin asset and turnover growth. It is holding up very well in this period of weaker oil prices. A good one to speculate on in a trade.

BUY

If you can stand the volatility, you'll do really well over time. If you are worried about volatility, consider royalty trusts.

BUY

Has been volatile because they Canadian oil/gas market has been popular with the hedge funds creating a lot of speculation. Bullish on all the large companies.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Some concerns about its oil sands development, as well as 3rd quarter numbers. Longer term, she likes it, but would wait for weakness.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 18/05. Up 25.4%.) Even at $55 oil, the revised cash flow per share next year still puts the price to cash flow ratio below 5.

COMMENT

Good company but would treat it as a seasonal trade. Gas and oil storage is running at fairly high levels, so have to get a fairly cold winter to burn off some of this storage.

HOLD

Good reputation, but also regarded as a trading stock. Quite volatile. Could be a reasonably good entry point.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 18/05. Down 3.7%.) Down because it made an acquisition making it a bit gassier and oil sands costs have created concerns. Still likes.

DON'T BUY

It is an interesting stock. It has fallen quite a bit. Other companies in this sector are also down. The stock is trading with the price of oil. Recommends not buying when the stock is heading down.

BUY

Keep an eye on long term for this stock, ( 5 year outlook) Reasonable entry point.

TOP PICK

Their construction costs are well in hand. Risks are minimal. The company is financially sound right now. He is looking for a re-entry point.

PAST TOP PICK

Stock is inexpensive, and he has choosen this for a top pick again.

HOLD

At this price and at this time of the season, it's a very weak period for the oil/gas sector. Made a very strategic acquisition. Expect they will do extremely well over the next period of time.

HOLD

Has had quite a setback recently and is getting down to a level where he thinks it is going to bounce. On a bounce, he would lighten up.
