Alex Ruus is great. I wish he was on more oftern. What's impressive even more is that FRU makes money even @ $40 wti. What make me wonder about FRU is it's payout ratio of 100%. Can that be harmful to a company?

Cashflow is the key and the payout ratio is 60% - that's pretty conservative and allows them to be able to pay out all the way down to $40 a barrel. Personally, I'd prefer them to have $60 as their cut-off point and bump the dividend accordingly. When you can get close to 6% risk-free, I am looking for close to double-digit distributions for the additional risk profile.
