BUY

It's the only oil stock he owns. The management owns 16% of the stock. Great track record in creating shareholder wealth. They've built two big properties over the last three years, and they will crystallize some of that value in six months, selling either the BC or Alberta assets--each is worth the current stock price. They can pay a special dividend, can pay off all their debt. A solid, well-run company with a fine balance sheet.

BUY

They were deleted from the index. It is a very high quality asset and company. They are not managing expectations as well as perhaps they could have. They are drilling wells with a 6 month payout. He likes it. He sees pretty good upside next year.

BUY

If it's dropped from the TSX. The market caps of a lot of small caps have shrunk a lot and could be delisted. Hedge funds are shorting these heavily, so the stock prices have plunged. (The selling happens ahead of the delisting.) He's adding to his positions of these names including Kelt. He respects the Kelt CEO who is buying millions of dollars of shares. All this shows the disconnect between current valuations and long-term value. This company is worth a lot more than the market currently believes.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 18/18, Down 63%) The lesson is: never invest in a Canadian energy stock. That said, the management has done everything very well. Amazing assets and fine balance sheet, but....nobody cares (about Canadian oil). He doesn't know when oil will recover.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Sep 28/18, Down 55%) A liquids rich natural gas producer. It is still transitioning through 1000 sections of land in the Montney. They intent to watch development in the area and focus on best-practices in the most prolific areas.

DON'T BUY

It's Canadian crude and gas in BC, which means it is pressured by low oil prices and a lack of pipelines. It's in the same boat as all Canadian oil producers.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 05/18, Down 47%) Run by a solid management team, but this is being impacted by the energy sector as a whole. They are paying down debt and doing all the right things. He continues to hold it.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 14/18, Down 38%) Canadian oil has been a tough place since the latter months of 2018. Fine managers. They have a huge land position in northeast BC. But this is an unloved sector. Yet, oil demand continues to rise each year. It comes down to timing.

BUY

Likes it. Trading at depressed valuations. It's a liquids-rich nat gas producer with enormous reserves. Production is growing fast. It has great balance sheet. With Venezuela out of the crude oil market, people are worried about condensate pricing which hurts this stock. Trading at reasonable valuations.

TOP PICK

A natural gas producer with liquids rich output. Management has a large holding. A core holding for him. Yield 0%. (Analysts’ price target is $8.80)

BUY

He has been a buyer of this in recent weeks -- along with senior management. The tax loss selling going on right now is the greatest in years. He thinks this will end soon and there should be a bounce back up in the stock price. If you are bullish on oil prices, this has at least a 50% upside potential.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Feb 14/18, Down 33%) No good news on Canadian energy since the summer. On the flipside, they’re good fundamentally, more disciplined, paying down debt, balance sheets in good shape. Kelt is doing all the right things for the long term.

TOP PICK

They buy opportunistically in down cycles. They are gas. Their debt levels are under control. They have built a nice solid company over the years, and may sell the company in the coming years if the time is right. Yield = 0% (Analysts’ price target is $10.95)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Dec 04/17, Down 31%) Well-run company. He sold his shares in May at an 18% profit. When energy rises, he'll pick this up again.

BUY

He has been averaging down on this one. It holds a premiere asset base with paybacks being less than one year. He thinks they will be able to unlock the asset value over the next two years. He thinks this could trade back above $10.
