COMMENT

In the commodity sector which is coming to the end of its period now. Chart shows a descending triangle and it has broken down through it. Getting close to its $5.10 support very fast. Next level would be $4.80.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Dec 2/09, Up 30%) The crop looks really good in 2011. Converting to corp. and leaving dividend where it is.

TOP PICK

Convertible debenture (RSI.DB.B-T) due June 29/13. Yield of around 4.5%.

COMMENT

Limits on how much beet sugar can be shipped to the US. Key input costs are Nat gas, which is working on their side. Prime market is Canadian.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick Dec 2/09, Up 19% total return) Play on income. Good quality yield, safe play. Have hedged inputs of Natural Gas for the next few years. They convert Nat Gas into sugar. Converting to corp. and cutting distribution to be same after tax. Little bit of upside.

BUY

Slow growth. Manufacture sugar but don't sell it at spot prices. High sugar prices are not good as it encourages customers to switch. Distribution will be cut when they convert but for taxable accounts it doesn't matter since what you lose in distribution yield, you get tax dividend credit for it. Use natural gas, which is currently very cheap.

DON'T BUY

Volatility in distributions through the years. Great performer in the last year because sugar prices have doubled. If you want a holding that gives steady income with some growth there are better places to be.

BUY

Stock hasn't gone anywhere since 2001 but he has got $.40 a share in dividends every year. Sugar prices are at an 11-year high but this doesn't boost their bottom line. Will have to convert in 2011 but the dividend looks pretty safe and he expects a good year in 2010.

TOP PICK

10.8% distribution. Manufactures and distributes sugar. One of only two companies in Canada. Low natural gas prices to cook the sugar and higher sugar prices gave them a record year. Ran a flawless manufacturing this year. Can sustain the payout ratio when it converts to a corporation.

HOLD

Yield of 12%. In a consolidation phase. Difficult to analyze technically. Not a lot of volume and what is there is spotty. Could possibly get up to $4.30. Use $3.60 as a Stop. Better opportunities available.

COMMENT

Primary facility is in Alberta. Basically service domestic markets because of stringent export rules. Key input costs is natural gas. He is interested in looking at this one.

COMMENT

It is now back into support again. Not sure if high input costs caused it to drop. You are probably okay to buy it here. In a market like this, he would prefer a trust that has infrastructure such as pipes, lines and utilities.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Excellent small income trust. Distribution has gone up. Their trade protection was renewed. Pretty safe.

COMMENT

(Market Call Minute.) Doesn't think it will go up with other agricultural stocks. No natural gas price has helped the stock.

TOP PICK

He looks on this as a hidden play on agriculture. It's a way to play soft commodities and is overlooked. It is trying to break out. Nice uptrend. Use $4.25 Stop.
