Pengrowth Energy, Gold Miners ETF: Value in Commodities

I still maintain you should still buy "Canroys" at least untill 2011, when the Canadian goverment changes the way it taxes "Canroys"(%3... but for now it's %15,which is on the dirt cheap. As far as Gold going up, I like it as I have a lot of it.(American Eagles,Mexican PESO,Maple Leaf). Gold to me is a "hedge" for emergencys,give or take. I see 'oil' hitting $80.00 a bbl at the end of the year. I feel sorry for the people in the "Ukarine", you either pay Russia's price or you freeze to death,witchever comes first. You should be glad your not living in Britian where gas is $5.00 a liter, not quite a gallon. I think gas will get to $4.00 a gallon before years end, so get your tanks filled.

Pengrowth's Distribution Cut Was the Right Choice - Bank of Montreal

I own a lot of "Blue Chip" companys in the U.S., and they are cutting their dividends, so what if the 'canroys' cut their dividend I'm still making more money than U.S. stocks,which most pay 1/4 (quarterly).

Where Is Penn West Energy Trust Going?

I think "Penn West Plaza" should be re-named "Shareholders Plaza" as that would be more fitting. I still believe CRT's as a major player in the oil markets as OPEC is cutting back even more to shore up there oil prices, we the US will realize we can do without foreign oil someday!!!. Hold on to your "rolality trusts" as they will pay off in the long run. With all the lay-offs occuring in the U.S., and dividend cutbacks for U.S. stocks this is still a bargain(Canadian Rolaity Trusts).Just my feedback.KPA

Petro-Canada Can Wait to Access Debt Markets Until 2010

The "Canroy's" in upper Canada are going to do better if what our President-Elect said is true. I thing he said ,no offshore drilling will be allowed. But 'Canada' is a different country, and they have plenty of Black Gold to back themselves up. And with the big 3 in turmoil, they will or should start producing better fuel efficent cars/trucks in the future or I hope so?.I would like to see the U.S. wean itself off of "foreign" oil, but with no offshore drilling what are we supposed to do.

Eight Stocks Going Ex-Dividend in October

I stated before about great dividend payouts from canadian trusts. Even when they take out canadian taxes it's only costing you about .03 cents U.S.D.. I bought HTE when it was trading at $40.00 and there still paying $.30 cents per share, looking at what it trades at today. Expect "OIL" to go up after "OPEC" meets. Which would you rather do, sell oil at $70.00 per barrel or sell it at $130.00 per barrel, more profit at $130.00 per barrel !. Stick with the canadian trusts and you will be re-warded.

Seven Canadian Energy Stock Picks

With the barrel of oil going down, I would think the "tar sands" would cut back on their dividend payout. I still have a lot invested in Canadian Oil, and I belive we cannot cut ourselves off of it. I'm glad to see the U.S. manufactors trying to produce more fuel efficent cars for our needs, and oil will always be a major player in whatever we produce in the U.S..

Penn West Energy: More Questions Than Answers

I'm holding on to my stock. PWE is not in good shape. But give them time to take the broom out of the closet and do a little house cleaning might help put them back on track. Giving the reason for not exploring new tracts of land,ALASKA is still the last frontier we have left,without all the pollution going on in the lower 48 states like we have now, give them time and they shoud clean up there act,I hope?.

8 High-Yielding Stocks for Income Investors

I own PGH<PWE<HTE<P... as these stocks pay big dividends, there is caution, watch what the stock trades at. It may go up/down ratio. It's best to look at the 52 week Hi/Lo, and find when the stock bottoms out. That may be a sign to BUY, but reasearch very well as to why the stock dropped, especially a fast drop. HTE drops fast every year around Nov. & Dec. The U.S. is dependent on oil, no mater where it comes from. Invest wisely and you get a good return on your money. You can buy "Mutual Funds" that return a decent dividend. If you ever look at what a mutual fund invests in (which is allmost everything,except the kitchen sink), tou will find they know what they are doing. I own several Mutual Funds and they pay fairly good.

Is Harvest Energy Trust's Premium Valuation Justified?

I haven't found too many comany's in the U.S. that pay 15%even if i comes to .30cents a share,or $1.20 every 1/4. Oil wil continue to go up as world demand for it increases. Propane is up, Home heating oil is up, Natural gas is up,next up is electricity,at least where I live. I'll take .30 cents p.s. anytime.

Canadian Political Tide Possibly Turning for Energy Trusts

I own a lot of 'canadian' energy trusts,especially H.T.E.,which pays an attractive dividend, and it's a lot better than some U.S. "stocks" that pay dividends but not equal to "canadian" energy. They(Canada) do take out foreign taxes on your investments,but for me it's not that much. I say invest in Canada's energy as you get a nice return for your money.KPA

Look for Significant Changes at Talisman Energy in 2008

I think in the long term you should buy energy stocks. The big "3" do not seem to be in any rush to make high mileage cars. I'm buying a lot of energy stocks almost at there 52 week low right now. I also buy 'canadian stocks' because of there yield. Just hold on to your investments, as they will rebound. The market is in turmoil right now partialy because of the 'sub-prime' mess,it will take a long time to straighten out.KPA

Wall Street Breakfast - Sample Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News by SA Editor Rachael Granby Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought. Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only. Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses.

Better Choices - Cramer's Lightning Round (10/15/08)

by SA Editor Rachael Granby

Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramers Mad Money TV program,
Wednesday, October 15.

Bullish Calls:

Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.

Bearish Calls:

Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend.
