Razorback / Talisman Energy

Talisman Energy is a great company. Shares have had a great run since OPEC agreement. As I have suggested before, this is one company to accumulate shares of for your retirement account. International exposure is excellent. If the political scene in Sudan settles, it would be a huge - huge "plus."

Warning, the stock is among the most volatile oil and gas issues in the marketplace. This could be a $60.00 stock in 12 months time. Oncoming production must occur as scheduled for that to happen.

Talisman is acquisition minded. That's okay. I have watched the company for a few years and it is certainly an exciting stock. As a bystander, I would like to see them acquire a company with substantial interests in the Gulf of Mexico. It's a safehaven region, would be a big additive for market appeal and certainly, a non-determent to operations. I even have a candidate for them.

Talisman Energy and Alberta Energy remain my favorite senior oils. I also like Canadian Occidental Petroleum, but the company doesn't get my top ranking due to heavy exposure to oil. However, there still is considerable upside to the current share price.
