The oil and gas royalty trusts are the obvious way to play oil and gas in a market (like we have now) where share prices of oil and gas stocks are lagging the commodity price. The reason is, of course, that the yields on these things track the commodity price - in fact a low share price/high commodity prices (like we have now) is a perfect enviroment for incredible yields. Any capital appreciation is simply a bonus. This is so completely obvious that I am amazed (and gratified) that these things are still relatively cheap. I'll just keep pocketing my 20-30% yields until it's not there anymore.
