Provident Energy Trust: Income for Today and Tomorrow

Great article. My thanks to everyone who posted comments.

They are lucid, reassuring, and useful.

People who like the Canroys come across as a decent bunch.

CANROYs Remain Attractive as Oil-Related Investments

Mr. Yetiv, thank you for a good exposition. Weep for America...living in a dreamworld where Russian control of the Georgian pipelines does not matter, Pelosi as dictator stopping American energy independence, and Congress putting green before citizens lives and lifestyle.

The geopolitical forces are at work on oil prices. Canada with secondary and tertiary recoveries is a great blessing to the States. Canroys make lots of mistakes, but get bailed out by high crude prices. At their worst, most are still good investments. The old "businessman's risk" as Forbes Mag. used to say.

Thanks, write more.

Upstream MLPs and Canadian Royalty Trusts: High Return, High Risk?

Canroys work for some of us. Cash is king. Always. My (late) mother used to point out there were far too many American corporations whose boards met once a year to do two things only: Raise the pay of the officers and insiders, and Increase their retirement benefits.
Instead of looting the companies for the management, the canroys give the owners a bit back.
