BUY

Good asset base. The nature of a royalty business, as opposed to a production business, somewhat insulates them from some of the risk factors of costs. Great name, not only because of the current yield, but its ability to grow that dividend as oil prices recover. 9.7% dividend. He is not anticipating any cuts but if oil prices drop further this could change.

HOLD

Not a big producer. Fundamentals are good. If you are willing to continue to hold for a year or longer, you should be OK.

DON'T BUY

Royalty Trust. One step back from the actual drilling. Once of the problems that a trust has is that other people have to come in and be enthused about the job. The price of oil in Alberta has been knocked down. While WTI is in $82 range, Alberta is $60’s and $70’s. He is not rushing in to buy any X-income trusts.

BUY

Excellent company. Pure royalty company in that it does not actually explore or produce oil but holds the royalty interest on a huge land mass. Has consistently paid a very strong dividend. For long-term income with a little bit of upside with stronger oil/gas prices, this is a very decent holding.

WEAK BUY

Has some concern about the business. Horizontal drilling on their properties has higher decline rates. As they decline it will put pressure on the company to go out and make acquisitions. Potential room for dividend increase.

COMMENT

An interesting little business. High-quality land and high-quality oil. Some volatility and if you are looking just to park your money, he would look at something with low volatility and consistent returns.

COMMENT

Management has done a good job. Feels the 8.8% dividend can be maintained. If you are in here for income and modest growth, you'll be well looked after.

COMMENT

If energy prices stay where they are, the dividend is sustainable. 3% dividend.

DON'T BUY

Large dividend, what’s the catch? It is over distributing and so it could get cut. Be cautious on this name. Prefers ARC or BTE as safer.

BUY

Trades with the oil markets. Nice cheque collector and pay a lot of that out in yield. If oil gets to $70s there is a chance of a dividend cut. Their tax losses run out next year so might have to tweak dividend a little bit. A pension plan might want to just buy it.

BUY

Good management and good sponsorship from Canadian National (CNR-T). Basically they payout their cash flow, which is sustainable as long as oil prices don't crater.

SELL

Old royalty trusts that converted to dividend stocks have massively outperformed their EMP (?) rivals. Very few bargains in this group. All pretty extended in price. If you are not dependent on distribution yields, he would look at one of the quality seniors as a better opportunity. (See Top Picks.)

BUY

Eloquent solution. Holders of income trusts in RSPs would be allowed to shift them to another plan like a TSFA. It’s a good solution. A well thought out plan. They will be taxable when they convert. A great little company.

BUY

(Market Call Minute) One of the great trusts. One of the ones they like. Don’t own it because they prefer the other 4.

BUY

Dividend can be sustained for a while as we move into 2011. High yield (10%). If they drop it down and you then get the dividend tax credit it is back again.
