  • Adding to EOG Resources (EOG) which has now fallen from $134 to $106 in under 2 weeks, now sits at its 200 day moving average. Taking it up from 0.9% stake to 1.7%.
    • <>Encore Acquisition (EAC) is showing some nice relative strength and refusing to sell off below the 50 day moving average of just over $64. Doesn't mean it won't, if the sector continues to break down - but so far it has not. So adding some here in the $65s and pushing it up from a 1.3% stake to 1.7%. As always, buying a stock like this near a moving average involves risk - the stock could break down...

    In a post earlier this month I mentioned how all things being equal it might make more sense to hedge towards smaller players in both the oil/natural gas exploration and production. [Jun 18: Will Encore Acquisition be Bought Out?]

    So all things being equal, we might develop a thesis here, that it might be sensible to build in exposure in smaller E&P companies with the carrot of potential takeouts. The typical market cap of the names above is $1 to $3 Billion.
