Bought Provident
December 27th, 2007 by Grant in: Investing, Oil & Gas, Royalty TrustsI bought more Provident Energy (PVX: chart, web, Y!) today, adding another 50 shares to my holdings. Crude oil ($wtic: chart) spiked on the news that Benazir Bhutto was assassinated in Pakistan, and natural gas ($natgas: chart) is holding its own above $7 going into the cold weather season.
I’m playing the trend. I’m in the stock for the dividend, but if the price rises to $13 I’ll definitely take some off the table. 30% price appreciation is too much to pass up, especially when you see it coming. The fundamentals of the company remain intact, and the only other thing that is weighing on the canroys is increasing production costs and the lingering Canadian tax policy.
