5 Energy Stocks with Low Long-Term Risk http://seekingalpha.com/article/105039-5-energy-stocks-with-low-long-term-risk?source=feed#comment-316955 316955
" Buying oil sands (COSWK.PK) makes ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE right now because the price of oil needs to be much higher than it is now to justify the high costs of extracting. In comparison, PWE has mostly conventional oil wells, where costs of extracting is lower. "

most aptly sums it up here!

Canadian Royalty Trusts in Need of an American Revolution http://seekingalpha.com/article/108123-canadian-royalty-trusts-in-need-of-an-american-revolution?source=feed#comment-315824 315824 Wed, 26 Nov 2008 16:06:04 -0500 Canadian Royalty Trusts Will Never Return to Their Former Glory http://seekingalpha.com/article/107494-canadian-royalty-trusts-will-never-return-to-their-former-glory?source=feed#comment-313954 313954 Or are you just totally Bearish on the Canadian Oil Trusts..you fail to mention US oil trusts such as BPT and Mexico Oil Trusts in their UMS bonds which by the way seen a size able increase in Price???? BPT has shown a huge drop in production ie from 400,000 to 300,000 bbl of oil per day in less than 13 months(I don't see BPT stock at sub basement prices like the Conroys see BPT$74/share vs PWE $13.60/share now vs BPT $108/share and PWE's $35/share this spring-summer 2008).
As an oilman a 25% drop in production over 13 months time especially at the end of its projected production era is far more terrifying than the prospects of future questionable tax burdens under any circumstances...so why aren't shares of BPT dropping??? Congressman Markey's (D. Mass.) proposal to cancel the withholding credit currently enjoyed by US investors is not a certainty nor do you know for a fact that the Obama folks will even act on it remember they put Richardson as Commerce secretary, and he’s shown a lot of conservative taxing ideals in the past….
