Hi Stan,
If you plan on holding through the entire trough, maybe you don't care about the unit trading value, but if it declines along with the distributions it's a given that your capital will be trapped for the duration. IMO you have to take that into
consideration when allocating your capital into these things, since changing horses in the middle of the stream won't really be an option without taking a major bath.

Yes, I agree and I'm planing at this point to ride the cycle at least into the spring. Of course I may change my mind if some fluke trading opp appears :o) I decided to hedge my bet with the PM plays and FAX (a bet against the Yankee Buck which pays a dividend - foreign withholding tax) and of course gassier and hedged trusts. I have a day business to run so I don't have the luxury of being on top of trading regularly and this hurt me a bit. HSE comes to mind, stops are a mixed blessing :o(

check out the new issue calendar Thanks I'll start checking that.

if prices do crater, I still have a goodly bit of cash so I'll be looking for bargoons too instead of lamenting but right now my trust weighting is as high as I want it to go. I still believe that the LT trend in NG is up. Now if only Bush would start replacing that SPR :o)

regards
Kastel
