Compton Petroleum(CMT.TO)

Aug 21, 2009
A couple of problems. 1) In the gas business and 2) have a very high debt load. New management is focusing on cutting costs. Speculative. Consider selling for tax losses.

COMMENT

Bankers Petroleum(BNK.TO)

Aug 21, 2009
Heavy oil play in Albania. Caller has warrants due to expire and is thinking of selling those, waiting for a downturn in shoulder season and then picking up longer-term warrants 2 years out. Answer: A reasonable strategy as the stock price is fairly valued at this level. Currently producing about 6400 BOEs a day and ramping up to 8200 by year-end. Wouldn't rush out and buy the stock today.

HBP NYMEX Oil Bull+ ETF(HOU.TO)

Aug 21, 2009
NYMEX Oil Bull+ ETF. Had owned this but sold it in frustration because it re-balanced daily. If you went from $50 oil to $75 oil, that would be terrific if you got direct exposure, but what happens is that your price goes up and down on the way.

Canadian Oil Sands(COS.TO)

Dividend isn't great but they did raise it recently. This is a direct leverage to oil prices and says he is positive on oil, you should continue to hold. You could also consider Baytex Energy (BTE.UN-T) or Arc Energy (AET.UN-T), which is a little more gas weighted but a well managed trust.

This company is pretty much in shallow gas and gas prices have just gone from bad to worse. If things were to deteriorate further, a distribution cut could happen.

TriStar Oil & Gas(TOG.TO)

Aug 21, 2009
Petrobank (PBG-T) has a buyout on it at $14.75 and it closed today at $15.34. It may be because people think a better offer may come but he doesn't think it is too likely. He recommends tendering to the offer, as it is very reasonable. New combined entity will be a good one to own.

Colombia seems to be very solid from an oil/gas perspective. This company just keeps banging out the production and has been fairly steady and consistent. Thinks there is substantial growth coming in production.

Becoming a more interesting story. Bidding for Tristar (TOG-T) and hopefully will spin that and its Canadian unit into the separate company called Petrobakken Energy. Wait for all of this to happen before taking a position.

Canadian Natural Rsrcs(CNQ.TO)

Aug 21, 2009
Has been one of the best performing oil/gas stocks but he thinks it will go higher because it is increasingly focusing on heavy oil and oil sands. Had originally been slated to do 100,000 barrels a day but has been doing intermittently 120,000. One of the benchmark names that you want to own.
