Gold Dollar SignWhen going through my options for the latest purchase in my Roth IRA, I ended up deciding to purchase more Provident Energy (PVX: chart, web, Y!).

While BIF does look attractive, it’s trading at a premium to the NAV and the return on capital is nearly 100%. While my CLM holdings are along those same lines, I don’t want to put too much into a stock that’s essentially giving me my money back.

I feel that Provident is a solid CANROY that is working hard to maintain reserves for the next decade and to provide a stable dividend to share holders. They also just announced a contined distribution of about $0.11 US on a monthly basis. There’s something to be said for consitency.

We are at the begining of natural gas season, and even though natural gas stockpiles are near record highs, I still feel natural gas has some price appreciation potential ($natgas: chart)through March of next year when temperatures start to rise before summer.
