About a year ago, I wrote an article in one of my newsletters about a highly-successful Toronto money manager named Eric Sprott who had given a speech predicting oil would hit $200 a barrel in the near future. At the time, the price of crude was well below $100 a barrel so it's not surprising that many people were skeptical. In fact, a few even wrote to me suggesting Mr. Sprott had lost it – this despite the fact the mutual fund he runs churned out 30%+ annual returns in five of the seven years from 2001 to 2007. (In the other two, the gains were a paltry 13%.)

If you're interested in a more conservative portfolio - one that provides an excellent yield (this one currently has 8.4%) and has a little growth potential - here's a starting point to start to put a diversified portfolio together. I'll be adding more candidates to the list in the future.
