COMMENT
Sell Sept 14 Puts or Buy at current prices? This is essentially large-cap oil stocks. Exposure to large caps now is probably not the worst idea and will probably outperform small caps in the near-term. If you are looking for better performance over time, an active manager can reduce the risks by shorting, being active by managing positions, without as much concentration risk.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 30/11. Up 5.02%.) Feels the worst is over and we should see better times.
TOP PICK
This is the senior oils. He is an advocate that the world is getting smaller and we're running out of oil and the price will continue to go up.
PAST TOP PICK
(Top Pick Jan 28/11, Down 18%)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 30/11. Up 7%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. He will run this until the middle of June.
TOP PICK
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Has started to move up the rankings for relative strength. Has a stop in at around $17.60. Has a nice little upward trend. Risk/reward is really good.
BUY
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Has been positive on this one for some time. Wouldn't have any problem buying this one.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 28/11. Down 11.74%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Underlying shares have not been following the commodity.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Sept 30/11. Up 17.84%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Chart shows the stock violated the down trend and there is a higher low.
TOP PICK
Wait until Jan 23 and run through until mid-June. 17% per year. You need to wait until the technicals are lined up but yet to turn positive.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 8/10. Down 12.16%.) S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Energy has been down but is now rising and he would be buying this one. Anything commodity-based, he is interested in.
WAIT
It’s hard to see oil getting up to $100. Energy has two seasonal times. Right now is not one. He starts in February. If it goes above $17.70 it will move up by $3 even though seasonal are not lined up on it. He would rather look into some of the names within the ETF.
BUY
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. This is a good time to get into oil, which is starting to go up.
TOP PICK
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. Energy has been beaten up and is all the way down to the levels of 2009. To him it is a gift.
TOP PICK
S&P/TSX Energy ETF. This is a core holding in its portfolio but he can also write options on it.
