Markets. Fundamentals in Europe are not very bright right now, but on the other hand, they are improving in the US. Liquidity situation in Europe has been addressed and won't be a problem for a bit. He is much more positive on the market but is not chasing things. Will be buying on a pullback.
If he was going to buy a former income trust that is somewhat active in the oil/gas sector, it would be this one. Price to cash flow ratio based on projected cash flow is one of the lowest. (See Top Picks.)
40% oils and liquids and 60% natural gas. 75%+ of revenues come from oil. Have a terrific position in Alberta in the Montne. Very astute about what they're doing with new properties. Shedding old properties that are marginal. Yield of about 4.7%. Great, long term buy.
Looking for a 30% return in the next 12 months. Have escaped the short-term pressures of potash. Also have a retail business. Located in Australia, Argentina, Canada and the US.
A micro gold producer in Arizona. Had their 1st production in 2011. Looking for 65,000 ounces this year and probably 100,000 next year. Cash flow will probably be $.60-$.65 this year and $.80-$1 next year. Incredibly cheap.
Gold. Dropped to its 50 day moving average, the bottom of the Bollinger band. His long-term outlook is very positive. Can see it testing this year's highs of around $1923 and possibly going up to $2000. If US and European debt issues are not resolved, there will have to be a new world financial system and gold will be a major part. Also, at some point, there will be inflation. His preference would be holding your 1st 5% position in bullion and the 5% or 10% should be Goldcorp (G-T) or one of his Top Picks today.
Consensus target price is $29.81, which would be a capital gain of 5%, plus the yield of $5.50 gives a return of 10.6%. There could be short-term price fluctuation.
Consensus target price is $40.38 giving a modest 4.4% gain. With the yield of 2.9% you have a gain of 7.9%. Would prefer an entry point of around $37-$37.50. Likes long-term and what it is doing.8
Fair value of oil is around $8-$92 a barrel. The difference between this and the recent prices is fears of about what might happen in the Middle East. This is his 2nd favourite stock in the oil sands. (1st is Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ-T).
