PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 4/11. Down 8.92%.) Sold the portfolio holdings but still owns personally. Lost money last two quarters. Often have lumpy earnings. A lot of people are afraid that they might cut the dividend. Often times, the winter is a good time for them.
TOP PICK
Bought in 2009 and went up 15%. Paid a nice dividend, almost 8% right now. Got hurt last winter because they deliver furnace oil. Revenues were hurt. Their partners have bought their stock like crazy. Would buy more if it comes down
HOLD

Just announced a dividend increase. They have quarters where they lose money because basically they are delivering heat to houses and corporations. Possibility of tremendous capital appreciation and he can see it doubling from here. Dividend yield of 6.7%.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick June 25/12. Up 29.57%.) Bought this one for income. Balance sheet is not as good as it was and they have far less cash in the bank. Doesn’t like the direction it is necessarily going in but, in April, they raised the dividend. Divided on what to do with this one. Don’t Buy.

COMMENT

Thinks this has more upside. Has a huge dividend. Very, very choppy on results. They will lose a bunch of money on one quarter, and then make a bunch. Thinks it can have a 20%-25% upside from here.
