no kidding, I have no opinion on BAS, but after trying to figure out a way to do it, I finally came to the conclusion that the only sensible way to take a position in energy was to buy individual stocks.
It aint easy. I don't advise any amateur (which is what I am) who can't spend 14 hours a day reading and understanding balance sheets and fundamental reports to do it on his own.
these analysts don't come cheap. And a good one won't tell you whether to buy or sell. Just the facts.
like the man told me over there in CL, "I don't buy oil. I buy oil wells."
