RE:Very prudent move on BXE's part...........Darb, a good point. If this is a person's best investment then we can hope BXE can withstand the clean out of the weak companies which will happen if oil and gas stay at these levels. Instead of a growth situation O&G companies are now stuck in situation requiring endurance. this is why I now like the gas plant; it brings in money from an alternate source.
However, I have looked at taxes and seen I can use a write off. I've sold my BXE for a huge loss and reinvested in two Permian producers which are well hedged and can produce oil at $50/bbl. About 6 years ago I'd never have thought I'd say this - the Cardium now looks like a smallish reserve off most people's radar. The Permian, Eagle Ford and Bakken are attracting any money looking for quicker and more stable profits. The XLE is not a big issue. The Permian and Eagle Ford get higher prices/bbl.
I don't feel good about investing in Nat Gas. I like growth and Nat Gas is in a very long basing position IMO.
Good luck to all. I've enjoyed the opinions and knowledge found here.
