He's out of the energy sector. It's one of the worst sectors due to an exodus of investors. He owns BP and a few smaller Canadian ones, like Cardinal.
Gran Tierra (GTE-T) vs Parex Resources (PXT-T). A tale of comparing two brothers. Both are in South America with Columbian core assets. Parex being a pure play vs Gran Tierra having ventured into Peru and Brazil and have exited these areas and now looking at Mexico and so forth. Prefers Parex as a South American play, very consistant. Gran Tierra has had its misteps, still has very good core Columbian assets.
Small oil and gas producer operating in Colombia. His preferred play is Parex Resources. GTE is more aggressive and not as financially strong. Parex has no debt, in fact has cash. GTE production fell off a cliff last year. Higher beta. More leveraged to an oil recovery, if you think oil's going to $70-75, which he doesn't.
(A Top Pick July 28, 2017. Up 41%). The management team is great. They did 31,426 boe/day last year and should do 37000 this year. That’s a big increase for a sizable company. They’ve had success with both exploration and development drilling. His target is $5.50 plus for this year and $12 for next year. There is good upside and people should buy it any time it breaks below $4. The company will be drilling 19-21 development wells and 8-11 exploration wells. That’s a very high percentage of exploration wells. Initial results from the exploration wells have been very encouraging.
