COMMENT

Refineries are not being built so they are valuable assets to companies. Thinks the US will create some insentives for compaies to expand. They take years to build, so it will be a very slow process.

COMMENT

An oil refiner which is why it has performed so well. There has been no new refining capacity added to the industry in the last 20 years.

BUY

A good refiner. Should do well.

HOLD

Have to be cautious on some if the US names because of currency risk, but ultimately what you want to do on any portfolio is diversify, so be somewhat light on US holdings. This company is one of the better refiners out there. With what we've seen with tight net gasoline supplies and refiners running flat out in the US, This will probably do well. The easy money's been made but you should do OK.

DON'T BUY

Shortening the stock at this point. Came out with an earnings warning recently. Fundamentals are pretty good and price is pretty cheap but will continue to have tough sledding.

TOP PICK

BUY

A great stock for people who want a hedge against rising gasoline prices. The largest independent refinery and marketer in North America. A shortage of refineries is being exasperated in the US by rules or

TOP PICK

The largest independent refining and marketing stock in North America. It owns oil refineries and gas stations. Likes the margins in refineries. Sees a prolonged period of profitability.
