Bill Harris, CFAPetroFrontier CorpPFC.VBUYMar 21, 2005

Has been one of his key positions for 1 1/2 years. Has always had a hard $4 target on the stock. Now blasted through that number, so not sure what to do about it. This is the year that they start drilling in Venezuela with 10 holes, 3 higher risks. If they hit their exploration targets it could double from here.

It's the ideal tool to help you make quicker, more informed decisions for managing and tracking your investments.

DON'T BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Needs an enormous amount of cash to do what it is doing in Eastern Europe. Fully valued.
DON'T BUY
Although he is a risk taker, the risks on Venezuela are too high for him. You just don't know what is going to happen with the government.
HOLD
Has just moved back above support. You can go long, but don't let it violate the level of support.
DON'T BUY
Getting production on, is very difficult. There is a lot of nationalization going on. Stay away unless there is a regime change.
SELL
Chart shows it's a downtrend. Stay away from it.
HOLD
The problem is with the Venezuelan government. A tough regime to work in. Very high risk situation, but potentially very high reward.
BUY
Risk/reward is very attractive. Venezuelan government expropriated 60% of the assets and now there is a flight of capital out of Venezuela. There is relative downside risk. Have lots of cash. Looking to increase his holdings.
DON'T BUY
Would be very careful of this and not let it make a new low. Would not buy.
BUY
Diversified asset base that reduces the risk profile. Decent dividend.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 1/06. Down 28.3%.) Has been terrible. They have an ongoing business and he is continuing to Hold. Trading at slightly more then 4 X cash flow under basic production.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct/06. Down 38.5%.) An incredibly cheap company.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 19/05. Down 38.5%.) A real wipeout. Saw it as 100% upside with a 10% risk if the government messed with it. Now he sees 300% upside with a 20/30% risk if the government messes with it. Will be having more talks with the company.
HOLD
Being in Venezuela, it is a country risk issue. Likes what he sees. Watch for the next few months as they bring the rig in and start drilling, they bring on more facilities and he sees the financial statements come out showing that the new regime works. He thinks it works.
TOP PICK
Venezuelan finally announced how businesses are going to operate. Looks like the worst-case scenario with 60% of assets being appropriated. Asset value is now $2.25/$2.50 but, at this price, it is a good buy.
STRONG BUY
Loves the management and the projects they are in. Unfortunately it's in Venezuela but the market is discounting far more risk than what they're really is.
