Chris I haven't checked their hedging. In this environment you (my opinion here) probably want to see some locked in value. This was a criterion for my two larger current holdings. Also look at how much debt of course and what % of cashflow they are paying out. Gives maybe an indication of a divi cut down the road sooner than later. I bought NCN and PVX back in December as swing trades since they had leverage due to lack of hedging, especially NCN.

Kastel

Chris one other thing. Check the yield histories. If you are more concerned with income (yield) and can ride the lows (and accumulate more :o) (my plan which is why I'm trimmed down now) when the lows come then check the payout histories. I seem to recall San Juan cut their dividend completely for a while ? I don't mind paying them as long as they pay me do do it. I also wouldn't overweight in these things now.
