Hi Jurgis -

What type of Oil related investments are you looking at?

I am looking at mid cap energy & distribution companies with market Caps less than $3 Billion but larger than $1 Billion.

I have my eye on a few that are selling at a reasonable PE for their sector, have acceptable debt profiles (total LT Debt no more than 6x annual Net Income) and pay a pretty good dividend.

Each company in my list has a growth theme that if executed by management could add additional value to shareholders in two or three years.

Some of these companies have already been discussed on this thread. I still believe they present a value opportunity at current prices. I have them on my watch list and will be adding to my positions on any sell off where they trade below their 200 MA. AGL is the only one that sells below it's 200 MA at this time.

Another "Wild Card" small cap on my list is Gas Natural Inc. Common Stock (AMEX: EGAS ) . The company pays a good monthly dividend, has a low PE and has a growth strategy where the CEO (and largest shareholder) has delivered double digit growth for the last few years. The company is a NG distributor & well owner that has been buying other very small utilities primarily in the North East. I hold this in the IRA account and have recently added shares.

Looking to see what you eventually buy.

FWIW, peeled off shares in Transcananda Corporation(NYSE: TRP ), UGI Corporation (NYSE: UGI ) and closed out my position in Macquarie Infrastructure Company (NYSE: MIC - A Very Wild Ride!). Upped my position in AGL Resources Inc. (AGL) and Gas Natural Inc. (EGAS).

Parked some money in MHRpC 10.25% $25.00 PAR value. This is one of the only preferreds I have seen that pays monthly distributions.
