UPR 20% cheaper today than Oct-Nov '98 with $10 crude...

One reason I have allways loved UPR; is in my opinion - this is a "non energy specialty" fund fav'. By that - I mean it's a name that many non energy speciality managers often add during rotation to the Oilpatch.

I have noticed it allways has money leave quickly and also flow in quickly on sector rotation - very volatile.

At the peak of Crude Oil & the Oilpatch's bottom - Sept to Dec of 1998 - when $5 crude oil was looked at as a real possibility; UPR traded from $8 to $14 and back down to $8 - then in 1999 up to $18.

If you catch UPR at a bottom on margin - these 50% "Waves" in UPR become "doubles". I see $10 3/4 to $16.25 in the next 90 days - for a margined double - bank on it.

The question to margin UPR is - does this look like a bottom ?

Well, we shall see...

Same price as the spring of '99 pre-rally; cheaper than Oct '98 with $10 crude; and greatly reduced debt levels here and lots of free cash flow.

If you're going to take on some risk and call a bottom - this looks like a good spot imho.

XTO - is now my largest holding - added today; love this one - Co announces increased production news & this is at 2 x cfps here ? - unbelieveable. They could earn $1.30 this year and be a less than 6-7 x EARNINGS here - that multiple being the high end of the "cash flow" multiple - insane !

There has to be some rotation coming - has to be.

If OPEC extends cuts - TOO THE MOON ALICE ~
