Some Trades I made this week include:
- Agrium (AGU) purchased @ $44.78 sold @ $46.07 – holding period 3 trading days.
- Nexen (NXY) purchased in Cash and RSP accounts (July 21 & 22) @ $22.08, $22.13 & $22.14.
- Talisman (TLM) purchased in RSP accounts (July 21 & 22) @ $16.83 & $16.97.
Assuming a positive week on the markets, I continue to recommend Nexen (NXY), Talisman (TLM), and suggest readers look carefully at Agrium (AGU), Potash (POT), Petro Canada (PCA), Canadian natural Resources (CNQ), Encana (ECA), CNR and RIM.
I’ll follow up later in the week with a review of these picks along with some analysis of Corporate Bonds and Preferred Shares that I like. Good luck and be prepared to move quickly in and take profits out. The traditional summer slump hasn’t happened yet. Regards, Warren.
