Kastel, be careful with these trusts! NCE is approximately 40% weighted towards natural gas, and very little of it is hedged. PrimeWest - pretty much the same story, although they do use hedging on half the production. These trust are essentially dependant on oil for their dividend pay-outs, so you are relying on OPEC -- yet again! We are in an oversupply situation, more downside then up! FYI, I hold no O&G, I'm 60% weighted in precious metals and 40% cash. Regards Frank P.
