While slightly higher long-term interest rates, higher oil prices, and
Y2K concerns may be seen to be putting a damper on the North
American economy, there is an excellent chance that economic
growth may surprise on the upside, says Bert Quattrociocchi,
vice-president and director of institutional sales and research at
Pacific International Securities Ltd. in Vancouver.

In energy, Richard Oddy, Pacific International's oil and gas analyst
is favouring companies with strong balance sheets and "the ability to
take advantage of the present environment to acquire additional
reserves and land at reasonable costs. The company must be
capable of growing production and have a good leverage to natural
gas and light oil."

His call is that natural gas markets will be strong this fall and winter.
As well, "crude oil price has now bottomed and will continue to
show gradual improvement."

Mr. Oddy's top picks include:

Cypress Energy Corp. (CYZa/TSE), which recently traded at
$4.20 and has a 52-week range of $5.25 to $3; Genesis
Exploration Ltd. (GEX/TSE) $5.50 ($8.20-$4.10); Merit Energy
Ltd. (MEL/TSE) $5.45 ($6.55-$3.20); Newport Petroleum Corp.
(NPP/TSE) $5.10 ($7.30-$3.55); Post Energy Corp. (PSN/TSE)
$4.50 ($5.60-$3.25); and Westminster Resources Ltd.
(WML/TSE) $4.80 ($8.90-$4.50).
