I have done some further investigation into a couple of the Canadian players and as another commenter commented, the low yields seem to be a direct reflection in a real jump in price over the past few months. Price is a very important consideration and I am going to hold off some more.<BR/><BR/>As for the US players, I will need to look at them more closely, but yes it does appear that they are better priced.

Almost every senior energy producer has quadrupled in price over the past 2 years. Holding off on buying them seems very wise to me. You are right.

Oil companies derive profits from a commodity that is priced in USD. Profits of foreign energy producers are significantly affected by exchange rates (expenses in local currency, selling in USD). <BR/><BR/>Even if we assume that the C$ reaches par, an appreciation of 17% from here, BP's yield will go down to 2.7% (from 3.3%). Not too shabby.<BR/><BR/>Also, note that BP is increasing dividends at a 7% annual pace over the past 5 years. Over the long term, I really like those odds. doctoth: I disagree.
