Top Canadian Stocks To Watch For 2019

Walmart is turning up the heat on Amazon on both sides of the Pacific.

America’s biggest retail chain said late Thursday it would start selling e-books and audiobooks online for the first time later this year.

The shift will bring the company into even closer competition with Amazon (AMZN), which started out as an internet bookseller but has grown into all-encompassing retail giant, both online and offline.

Walmart’s (WMT) move into an established Amazon business is part of a broader alliance with Rakuten (RKUNF), Japan’s largest ecommerce company. As well as teaming up to sell e-books to American consumers, they are also setting up an online grocery platform in Japan.

In the U.S., Walmart will sell Rakuten’s Kobo e-readers, which are similar to Amazon’s Kindle. The Kobo platform, created by a Canadian company that Rakuten bought in 2011, currently offers readers millions of titles.

Scott Hilton, chief revenue officer of Walmart’s ecommerce business, said in a blog post that the deal “enables us to quickly and efficiently launch a full e-book and audiobook catalog on Walmart.com.”

Top Canadian Stocks To Watch For 2019: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

    However, Long stated that the company is also in discussions with Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) and Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) to potentially join their Wink to Webster Pipeline project. Long stated that “we will continue to go down parallel paths in order to evaluate and achieve the most efficient and accretive [project] for our partnership.”

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    There’s just one problem with all that production: It needs to get out of the basin, which is a problem right now since there aren’t enough pipelines. Because of that, some of the best ways to play the Permian production boom are pipeline companies. Three perfectly positioned to profit from the Permian boom are Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA), Targa Resources (NYSE:TRGP), and Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI).

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Another issue affecting Permian producers is dwindling space on pipelines to move crude out of the region. At one point last year, oil companies were pumping 3.3 million BPD out of the Permian but had only about 3.6 million BPD of pipeline space. That bottleneck has eased somewhat in recent months, after Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) raced to finish its Sunrise expansion project, which came online in November. Plains All American is also on track to start partial service of its Cactus II pipeline by the third quarter of this year, with full service expected by next April. Meanwhile, Plains All American recently joined forces with ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) and another midstream company to move forward with a new pipeline project, Wink to Webster, which should start up in the first half of 2021. That pipeline is crucial to support ExxonMobil’s Permian-focused expansion plans.

Top Canadian Stocks To Watch For 2019: Encana Corporation(ECA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

    Shares of Encana Corp (NYSE:ECA) (TSE:ECA) gapped up before the market opened on Tuesday . The stock had previously closed at $5.95, but opened at $6.10. Encana shares last traded at $6.11, with a volume of 65113676 shares changing hands.

    Cenovus Energy (NYSE:CVE) and Encana (NYSE:ECA) are both large-cap oils/energy companies, but which is the superior stock? We will compare the two companies based on the strength of their risk, institutional ownership, valuation, profitability, dividends, earnings and analyst recommendations.

  • [By ]

    Already, shale companies such as Encana (ECA) , Occidental Petroleum (OXY) and Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD) , among others, are reporting higher cash flows and earnings on higher oil prices. As a result, they are paying down debt, increasing dividends and engaging in buybacks. This is a dramatic improvement in shareholder yield for the group.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Today, however, many drillers are setting a high bar for new wells. EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG) has been one of the leaders in disrupting the former way of thinking by establishing a high return hurdle rate for new wells of 30% after-tax at $40 oil. Others followed with similar return-focused approaches, including Encana (NYSE:ECA), which needs locations to achieve a 35% after-tax return at $50 oil to meet its premium hurdle rate.

    This stock has pulled back sharply and is offering an outstanding entry point. Encana Corp. (NYSE: ECA) is an energy producer focused on developing its multibasin portfolio of natural gas, oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs) producing plays. Its operations also include the marketing of natural gas, oil and NGLs. All of its reserves and production are located in North America.

Hot Canadian Stocks To Buy For 2019: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Two years ago, Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and Plains GP Holdings (NYSE:PAGP) took a step to simplify their corporate structure by eliminating the costly incentive distribution rights (IDRs) that Plains All American paid to Plains GP. In exchange, Plains GP acquired a 34.8% stake in the MLP. While that deal was certainly a step in the right direction, the companies could eventually take the next logical progression by combining into one entity.

    In a new research report, the MLP team at Baird has assimilated the data from the recent Plains All American Pipeline L.P. (NYSE: PAA) analysts day and come to some interesting conclusions. The report noted this:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    After several challenging years, oil pipeline operator Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) started bouncing back in 2018. Though the third quarter, the company’s results were well ahead of forecast, which led it to boost its full-year guidance.

  • [By John Bromels]

    That’s what happened to U.S. oil and gas pipeline operators Kinder Morgan, Inc. (NYSE:KMI) and master limited partnership (MLP) Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) in 2016. Both made a major dividend/distribution cut. Both stocks took a hit. And neither one has recovered: Plains All American is down 53.3% over the last three years, while Kinder Morgan is down a painful 63.1%.

  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    The most important energy play in the mix will be the Permian Basin in West Texas and southeast New Mexico, which, if the area were a stand-alone country, would be among the top 10 global petroleum liquids producers. However, exploiting its full potential will require nearly doubling pipeline capacity in the region by the end of 2023. Few companies are tapping into that opportunity quite like Plains All American Pipeline LP (NYSE:PAA). Impressive near- and long-term growth strategies, a healthy 5% dividend yield, and a new joint venture with ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) make it my top stock to buy this July. 

  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    That alone should put pipeline stocks on the radars of investors. But don’t forget the high yields, steady, predictable earnings and cash flows from fee-based contracts, and billions of dollars of growth projects under way. Two companies that fit that mold and are well-positioned to exploit the long-term opportunity are Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) and Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA).

Top 5 Canadian Stocks To Watch Right Now

Thursday was a largely down day for the stock market, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average taking the biggest hit of the major benchmarks. The global turmoil over trade got a lot closer to home as the U.S. imposed new restrictions that led the Canadian government to issue retaliatory tariffs in response. Yet many broader-based measures of the market fell only slightly, showing that much of what drives the economy isn’t as dependent on trade as traditional industrial giants. Good news also sent some key stocks higher. Madrigal Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:MDGL), Brink’s (NYSE:BCO), and Applied Optoelectronics (NASDAQ:AAOI) were among the best performers on the day. Here’s why they did so well.

Madrigal sings a pretty song

Shares of Madrigal Pharmaceuticals soared into the stratosphere, leaping more than 140% in the wake of extremely encouraging clinical trial results in a study of the company’s MGL-3196 candidate treatment for the liver disease non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. The phase 2 trial showed that Madrigal’s drug met the study’s primary endpoint of cutting liver fat levels, as well as showing promising improvements in other risk factors like cholesterol, triglycerides, liver enzymes, and fibrosis biomarkers. With several rivals fighting to come out with a treatment for the liver disease, investors today have high hopes that Madrigal will be first out of the gate and make that translate into a profit boom if late-stage trials go equally well.

Best Value Stocks To Invest In Right Now: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    That alone should put pipeline stocks on the radars of investors. But don’t forget the high yields, steady, predictable earnings and cash flows from fee-based contracts, and billions of dollars of growth projects under way. Two companies that fit that mold and are well-positioned to exploit the long-term opportunity are Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI) and Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA).

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Plains All American Pipelines’ (NYSE:PAA) turnaround strategy continued paying dividends during the fourth quarter. The oil pipeline-focused MLP’s financial results surged thanks to recently completed expansion projects, as well as its ability to capitalize on issues in the oil market, which enabled it to deliver earnings and cash flow well above its guidance. That strong showing has the company on track for continued success in 2019.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    The market has pummeled master limited partnerships (MLPs) over the past few years due to the impact the oil market downturn had on their operations and business model. Among the hardest-hit have been oil pipeline MLP Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and gas pipeline giant Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP), both of which have lost more than half their value over the last three years. That persistent slump comes even though their turnaround strategies are beginning to gain steam. While these companies still have some work to do before they’re back on solid ground, both could deliver significant returns as they complete their plans and the oil market continues rebounding over the next few years. That upside potential makes them compelling options for investors with a higher tolerance for risk.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    In addition, the company’s Advantage Pipeline joint venture (JV) with Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) has been exceeding expectations since it began last year. Noble Midstream and Plains All American might need to expand that pipeline even further.

    Friday was a good day on Wall Street, especially for the large companies that make up the broadest major benchmarks. Market participants didn’t let a slightly weak July employment report rain on their parade, instead insisting that the long-term course of the U.S. economy still looks overwhelmingly positive. Nevertheless, that general sentiment wasn’t enough to prevent some stocks from posting considerable losses. Shake Shack (NYSE:SHAK), Tesaro (NASDAQ:TSRO), and Square (NYSE:SQ) were among the worst performers on the day. Here’s why they did so poorly.

After a long weekend of cookouts and college football, investors turn their attention back to the market today. Trade concerns that haunted the Street late last week haven&a;rsquo;t necessarily gone away, but stocks have remained very close to all-time highs amid continued U.S. economic strength.

&a;nbsp;

Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Gordon has been picking up steam as it heads north through the Gulf of Mexico. As some offshore oil rigs suspend operations, WTI crude raced past $70 a barrel to above $71. This may be a story worth watching as it unfolds this week. Weather-related supply disruptions can sometimes have far-reaching economic effects.

&a;nbsp;

Also, the U.S. Dollar Index is up a bit this morning on weakness in several major currencies, perhaps most notably the Canadian dollar, which fell on comments from the President concerning the future of NAFTA and its potential replacement. Recall last week the U.S. and Mexico struck a trade deal, without Canada. Talks with Canada broke down without any concrete agreement. According to office of the U.S. Trade Representative, the U.S. and Canada exchanged more than $670 billion in 2017.

Top 5 Canadian Stocks To Own Right Now: ConocoPhillips(COP)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Jon C. Ogg]

    Goldman Sachs has made a key rotation in its oil and gas sector coverage. The firm downgraded ConcoPhillips (NYSE: COP) to Neutral from Buy now that its shares had risen more than 40% so far in 2018 alone. That blows away the performance of most energy index leaders, and this downgrade is based on the good news now being reflected in the shares. Goldman Sachs analyst Neil Mehta has an $81 price target on ConocoPhillips, which compares with the prior closing price of $79.89 and its 52-week high of $80.24.

  • [By Chris Lange]

    The number of ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) shares short dropped to 12.37 million from the previous 16.01 million. Shares were trading at $71.75, within a 52-week range of $42.27 to $73.76.

  • [By Ethan Ryder]

    Investors purchased shares of ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) on weakness during trading hours on Friday. $107.97 million flowed into the stock on the tick-up and $35.36 million flowed out of the stock on the tick-down, for a money net flow of $72.61 million into the stock. Of all stocks tracked, ConocoPhillips had the 26th highest net in-flow for the day. ConocoPhillips traded down ($0.13) for the day and closed at $73.43

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) has been one of the best-performing oil stocks of 2018, up nearly 30% year to date, easily outpacing the less than 4% return of the S&P 500. Meanwhile, shares are up almost 64% in the past year, smashing the 14% gain by the broader market. And despite its impressive outperformance, we “still see upside potential for our shares,” according to CEO Ryan Lance. The company is backing up that statement, too, by significantly expanding its share buyback program. Those buybacks could give the oil giant’s stock the fuel it needs to continue its market-crushing run.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    However, the region has been growing so fast that oil producers are on pace to exceed its pipeline capacity in a matter of months. While several new lines are under development, drillers have already started slowing down. ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) and Noble Energy (NYSE:NBL) were among several producers that recently announced plans to reallocate some of their drilling activities to other regions. In ConocoPhillips’ case, it plans to drill more wells in the Eagle Ford shale, while Noble Energy will likely allocate more capital to Eagle Ford and the DJ Basin.

    As things stand right now, analysts anticipate that at least some Iranian oil will come off the market as a result of the sanctions. That lost output would further tighten an oil market that suddenly has little margin for error thanks to red-hot demand and tame supply growth. That’s the recipe for higher oil prices and could make top-tier U.S. oil stocks Anadarko Petroleum (NYSE:APC), Devon Energy (NYSE:DVN), and ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) big winners in the coming years.

Top 5 Canadian Stocks To Own Right Now: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    On a more positive note, pipeline companies are building new lines as fast as they can. Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) is working to accelerate the development of its two oil pipeline projects to get them into service sooner than the current timeline of January 2019 for its Sunrise project and the early part of next year’s fourth quarter for partial service of Cactus II. Plains All American Pipelines is doing that by incurring additional costs to expedite material deliveries and vendor services as well as installing temporary generators until permanent utility power is in place. However, even though pipeline companies like Plains All American are working as fast as they can, the industry’s capacity problems likely won’t go away until the end of next year when the first wave of new pipelines enter service.

Those projects position the company to grow its earnings at a double-digit annual pace through 2019. In addition to that, the company has other growth opportunities in the works, including a proposed oil pipeline in the Permian via a partnership with ExxonMobil.

Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) is working to accelerate the development of its two oil pipeline projects to get them into service sooner than the current timeline of January 2019 for its Sunrise project and the early part of next year’s fourth quarter for partial service of Cactus II. Plains All American Pipelines is doing that by incurring additional costs to expedite material deliveries and vendor services as well as installing temporary generators until permanent utility power is in place. However, even though pipeline companies like Plains All American are working as fast as they can, the industry’s capacity problems likely won’t go away until the end of next year when the first wave of new pipelines enter service.

    The market has pummeled master limited partnerships (MLPs) over the past few years due to the impact the oil market downturn had on their operations and business model. Among the hardest-hit have been oil pipeline MLP Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and gas pipeline giant Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP), both of which have lost more than half their value over the last three years. That persistent slump comes even though their turnaround strategies are beginning to gain steam. While these companies still have some work to do before they’re back on solid ground, both could deliver significant returns as they complete their plans and the oil market continues rebounding over the next few years. That upside potential makes them compelling options for investors with a higher tolerance for risk.

Best Canadian Stocks To Watch Right Now

This has truly been a year of “marijuana firsts.” Since the year began, we’ve seen the following:

The largest marijuana deal in history, with Aurora Cannabis acquiring CanniMed Therapeutics for $852 million, followed by Aurora’s offer to buy Ontario-based MedReleaf for $2.5 billion. This latter deal is still pending. Two over-the-counter-listed Canadian pot stocks – Canopy Growth Corporation (NYSE:CGC) and Cronos Group — uplisted to reputable exchanges in the United States. Vermont became the first U.S. state to legalize the use of recreational marijuana entirely through the legislative process. Canadian-based Tliray became the first marijuana stock to have an initial public offering on a U.S. exchange. Canada became the first industrialized country in the world to legalize adult-use marijuana.

Now, we have a new “marijuana first” to add to the list: an investment from Big Tobacco.

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Own For 2019

The countdown is underway. In less than four months — Oct. 17, 2018, to be precise — it will officially be legal for adults in Canada to purchase marijuana. In becoming the first developed country in the world to give the green light to recreational weed, Canada has opened the door to an industry that could now see a $5 billion annual windfall of sales.

In anticipation of this long-awaited vote, and, of course, these delectable sales figures, Canadian pot growers have been busy expanding their capacity as quickly as their wallets will allow. Some growers have seen their projected peak production soar by more than 400% just since the year began, all in an effort to secure long-term supply deals, forge emotional attachments with consumers, and lay claim to as much market share as possible when the proverbial green flag waves in mid-October.

    Financial services hasn’t exactly been America’s most popular industry in recent years.

    Banks have traditionally obtained 40% of their profits from “fee income,” which are those charges for using out-of-network ATMs, for maintaining too low of a monthly balance, or for any of the other fine-print fees you never knew you triggered until it’s too late. This is aggravating for retail customers. Consumer lenders are among the most-hated companies in our country, with predatory loans largely responsible for burdening subprime borrowers with excessive debt and for spurring the 2008 economic recession. This makes the public leery of lenders and distrustful of the fine print in the contracts. Even the companies who are considered best-in-class have an unflattering reputation. Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) was once considered one of our nation’s most dependable banks. But their recent sales scandal, which opened millions of unauthorized consumer accounts, may have permanently impaired their reputation. And no one has forgotten how Goldman Sachs’ (NYSE:GS) traders boasted about ripping the faces off of their clients just to generate profits. It prompted Rolling Stone magazine to famously refer to Goldman as a “great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity.”

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Own For 2019: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    The market has pummeled master limited partnerships (MLPs) over the past few years due to the impact the oil market downturn had on their operations and business model. Among the hardest-hit have been oil pipeline MLP Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and gas pipeline giant Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP), both of which have lost more than half their value over the last three years. That persistent slump comes even though their turnaround strategies are beginning to gain steam. While these companies still have some work to do before they’re back on solid ground, both could deliver significant returns as they complete their plans and the oil market continues rebounding over the next few years. That upside potential makes them compelling options for investors with a higher tolerance for risk.

    Another issue affecting Permian producers is dwindling space on pipelines to move crude out of the region. At one point last year, oil companies were pumping 3.3 million BPD out of the Permian but had only about 3.6 million BPD of pipeline space. That bottleneck has eased somewhat in recent months, after Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) raced to finish its Sunrise expansion project, which came online in November. Plains All American is also on track to start partial service of its Cactus II pipeline by the third quarter of this year, with full service expected by next April. Meanwhile, Plains All American recently joined forces with ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) and another midstream company to move forward with a new pipeline project, Wink to Webster, which should start up in the first half of 2021. That pipeline is crucial to support ExxonMobil’s Permian-focused expansion plans.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Most investors have probably heard of energy giants Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS-A) (NYSE:RDS-B), Dominion Energy (NYSE:D), and TransCanada (NYSE:TRP). Fewer, however, are likely familiar with their publicly traded master limited partnerships (MLPs): Shell Midstream Partners (NYSE:SHLX), Dominion Energy Midstream Partners (NYSE:DM), and TC Pipelines (NYSE:TCP). That might be a good thing, as the market has beaten up the latter trio this year, sending their valuations south.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    North American pipeline companies have three major pipeline projects currently under development: Trans Mountain, Enbridge’s (NYSE:ENB) Line 3 Replacement, and TransCanada’s (NYSE:TRP) Keystone XL. Of that trio, only Line 3 is currently under construction. Enbridge anticipates that the project will enter service in the second half of next year, bringing the pipeline’s capacity back up to its original design of 760,000 barrels of oil per day (BPD), which is double its current rate. The company recently won approval to construct the line through the state of Minnesota along its preferred route and signed an agreement with a Native American group to build it through their reservation. As a result, the company remains on schedule and on budget with the project.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Enbridge just bought its stake in the German offshore wind farm projects last year, initially agreeing to invest about $1.25 billion for a 50% stake. However, with concerns growing about its balance sheet and ability to finance growth projects, the company has chosen to monetize part of this asset. It’s also monetizing its onshore renewable facilities in Canada and two in the U.S. to bring in some much-needed cash. This decision to cash in on a portion of its renewable portfolio follows a similar plan by fellow Canadian pipeline giant TransCanada (NYSE:TRP), which sold its solar assets in Ontario last year. The driving factor in that decision was TransCanada’s desire to improve its financial flexibility so that it could “continue to build on our vision of being North America’s leading energy infrastructure company,” said CEO Russ Girling. What’s clear from these deals is that neither TransCanada nor Enbridge sees renewables playing a key role in building the companies they envision themselves being.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    However, not all energy stocks have enjoyed an up year. Two of those laggards are TransCanada (NYSE:TRP) and Williams Companies (NYSE:WMB), which have both sold-off by double digits. Those declines have pushed their dividend yields above 5%, making them great options for income-focused investors to consider buying.

Top 5 Canadian Stocks To Watch Right Now

What happened

Shares of the Canadian pot grower Tilray (NASDAQ:TLRY) gained as much as 13% on heavy volume Friday.

Given the lack of a discernible news event, Tilray’s shares appear to be simply resuming their monstrous uptrend that’s been ongoing pretty much ever since the company went public last July. Following this latest positive double-digit move, the company’s shares are now up by an eye-popping 190% since its initial public offering only a few weeks ago.

So what

Tilray and several of its closest peers have seen a tremendous uptick in their share prices this month, thanks to the reported interest by several alcoholic beverage-makers such as Diageo in forming strategic partnerships. The legal Canadian pot industry, after all, has already seen major deals struck between Molson Coors Brewing Co. and Hydropothecary Corp., as well as between Constellation Brands and Canopy Growth Corporation. So, with Tilray quickly becoming one of the top dogs in the industry following its uplisting to a major U.S. exchange, investors appear to be betting that this name will attract a deep-pocketed partner as well.

    FAANG stocks are attempting to rebound today after a brutal sell-off hit the Nasdaq components Tuesday. The social media giant Facebook Inc.

    Right now, the 10-year interest rate is sitting on the border of 3%. And this news has many investors jittery about the impact on the stock market and the broader economy. Of course, many people forget that interest rates remain historically low for this stage of an economic expansion. And inflation targets remain stubbornly elusive for members of the U.S. Federal Reserve. The truth is that investors have little to worry about regarding interest rates.

    Markets are cheering a major development in efforts to fix the ongoing trade conflict between the United States and China. According to Reuters, Chinese telecom giant ZTE has signed an agreement to get back into business with its American partners. The agreement will lift a ban by the U.S. Commerce Department that prevented China’s No. 2 telecommunications equipment from buying from U.S. suppliers. This is a major development, and one that signals progress among trade officials from both nations. There are now more job openings in the United States than available workers. This is the first time that the Department of Labor has documented this phenomenon. There are 6.7 million openings compared to the 6.4 million workers available to fill those positions. As a result, U.S. companies have been forced to increase compensation in order to attract talent. All of the positive economic development could come to a screeching halt should the U.S. experience the largest labor strike in a decade. Reports indicate that the Teamsters and the United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS) are on a collision course that could result in a general strike. The union has announced that 260,000 UPS employees have authorized a strike should both sides fail to reach a labor deal by August 1.

What happened

Units of midstream industry bellwether Enterprise Products Partners LP (NYSE:EPD) rose 12.5% in January, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. That’s a pretty big move for this conservatively run limited partnership. It was also a dramatic reversal of 2018, when the $60 billion giant saw its price fall around 7%, with a couple of long up and down swings in the mix. But Enterprise was hardly alone in its January jump.

For example, relatively small peer Crestwood Equity Partners LP (NYSE:CEQP) ended the month up 13%. ONEOK (NYSE:OKE), which is structured as a regular corporation and not a limited partnership, rose an impressive 19%. And Canadian midstream owner Pembina Pipeline (NYSE:PBA) jumped 20% (like ONEOK, Pembina is not structured as a limited partnership). The midstream sector across the board had a pretty decent month.

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Own Right Now: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    The growth opportunities could be significant. Large-scale midstream companies Targa Resources (NYSE:TRGP) and Plains All American Pipelines (NYSE:PAA) currently have billions of dollars of Permian growth projects under way that will significantly increase their cash flow in the coming years. Targa Resources recently secured contracts supporting $500 million of gas gathering and processing investments in the region, which boosted its total backlog of Permian projects to $2.4 billion, or 75% of its total planned spending over the next two years. Those expansions position it to nearly double its earnings by 2021. Plains All American Pipelines, meanwhile, is investing more than 80% of its roughly $2 billion capital budget on the Permian over the next two years, and it could end up spending even more money to meet the demand for oil gathering capacity. Those expansions help position it to grow cash flow at a double-digit annual pace over the next two years. Given Oasis Midstream’s much smaller size, it has the potential to capture needle-moving growth by expanding into the Permian.

    It’s also just one of several oil pipeline projects in the works throughout the Permian Basin. Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) is currently investing $1.6 billion on Permian Basin expansions, which include two long-haul pipelines and several other complementary projects to help de-bottleneck the flow of crude. Those projects help position Plains to grow earnings and cash flow at a double-digit annual pace over the next two years, setting it up to increase its 4.9%-yielding payout at a healthy rate going forward.

    Back in June, Exxon and oil pipeline company Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) signed a letter of intent to pursue the creation of a joint venture that would build another oil pipeline out of the Permian Basin. Exxon and Plains All American envisioned a more than 1 million barrel-a-day pipeline that would move oil produced by Exxon and others to refining and export markets along the Gulf Coast.

    One oil midstream company that meets all these criteria is Plains All American Pipelines (NYSE:PAA). While the oil pipeline MLP did struggle during the recent oil market downturn, it’s working to address those issues, which positions it to deliver better returns for investors in the coming years. Among the problems it’s fixing is its balance sheet, with Plains’ aim to get its leverage ratio to less than 4.0 times by early next year. Meanwhile, the company has invested heavily in strengthening its portfolio of fee-bearing assets so that long-term contracts now support 90% of its earnings. Finally, Plains only expects to pay out about 60% of its cash flow to support its high-yield dividend in 2018, which is an ultra-conservative level for an oil pipeline stock.

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Own Right Now: ConocoPhillips(COP)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Several other oil and gas companies are beginning to ramp up their investments in the Montney. U.S. oil giant ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP), for example, spent $120 million earlier this year to lease another 35,000 acres in the region. That boosted ConocoPhillips’ position up to 140,000 acres that it can develop in the future. As companies like ConocoPhillips drill more wells in the Montney, it should open the door for Brookfield to expand its system in the region, which should grow its cash flows.

    Three years ago, if you asked me to compare the prospects of an integrated oil major like BP (NYSE:BP) to an independent oil and gas exploration and production company (E&P) like ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP), I’d have told you the oil major would win hands down. The price of oil had collapsed, and independent drillers were stuck up the proverbial creek without a paddle.

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP) has been one of the best-performing oil stocks in the market recovery. One of the fuels driving its outperformance has been the company’s efforts to reshape its portfolio. Those actions not only brought in some cash to pay off debt and buy back stock but have sharpened its focus on its best assets.

    Winnebago’s total backlog increased by 36% against the comparable prior year quarter, to $193.1 million. Competitor Thor Industries’ (NYSE:THO) quarterly earnings, reported earlier this month, revealed a backlog reduction of 18%. Although Thor’s management presented a credible argument that the organization’s backlog reduction is due to increased production capability, its shareholders nonetheless have worried over demand trends. Winnebago’s own backlog growth provides a more positive data point for those taking stock of the larger RV industry.

    Darden Restaurants Inc. (NYSE: DRI) leads a fairly busy day of earnings reports. The restaurant management giant easily topped Wall Street profit numbers by reporting earnings per share of $1.34. The average Wall Street estimate was $1.23. The firm also easily topped revenue expectations. DRI shares were up 4.5% this morning. The problems continue to mount for General Electric Co. (NYSE: GE). This morning, JPMorgan Securities slashed its price target for the U.S. conglomerate from $11 to $10 per share. The investment firm cited ongoing challenges to the company’s turbine business. General Electric has been under pressure since the financial crisis, and it was the worst performing stock on the Dow in 2017 before it was ultimately replaced on the index. Shares of Under Armour Inc. (NYSE: UAA) added 3.4% this morning, but the driver wasn’t necessarily positive for the global apparel giant. According to reports, the Baltimore-based sports apparel giant is cutting 3% of its international workforce. That equates to roughly 400 jobs. The company did raise its fiscal 2018 earnings forecast, and issued a revised update of severance costs. Look for earnings reports from Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MU), Thor Industries Inc. (NYSE: THO), United Natural Foods Inc. (NASDAQ: UNFI), Steelcase Inc. (NYSE: SCS), Scholastic Corp. (NASDAQ: SCHL), and Xcerra Corp. (NASDAQ: XCRA).

    Right now, the 10-year interest rate is sitting on the border of 3%. And this news has many investors jittery about the impact on the stock market and the broader economy. Of course, many people forget that interest rates remain historically low for this stage of an economic expansion. And inflation targets remain stubbornly elusive for members of the U.S. Federal Reserve. The truth is that investors have little to worry about regarding interest rates. Instead, they should listen to Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald, who offered his insight to Fox Business Network earlier this week. Here’s what Keith had to say.

    Shares of NRG Energy Inc. (NYSE:NRG) rose 10.9% in August, buoyed by its second-quarter results and an analyst upgrade.

    So what

    “Our business performed exceptionally well during the second quarter,” stated CEO Mauricio Gutierrez in the company’s earnings press release. Driving that view is that income from continuing operations rose from $99 million in the year-ago period to $121 million in this year’s second quarter. Powering the company’s improvement was its retail segment, where adjusted EBITDA came in at $298 million, which was $94 million higher than the second quarter of last year. The company’s generation business also delivered stronger results as adjusted EBITDA rose $45 million to $197 million. Those dual fuels enabled the company to reaffirm its full-year outlook for adjusted EBITDA between $2.8 billion to $3 billion.

    There’s just one problem with all that production: It needs to get out of the basin, which is a problem right now since there aren’t enough pipelines. Because of that, some of the best ways to play the Permian production boom are pipeline companies. Three perfectly positioned to profit from the Permian boom are Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA), Targa Resources (NYSE:TRGP), and Kinder Morgan (NYSE:KMI).

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Another issue affecting Permian producers is dwindling space on pipelines to move crude out of the region. At one point last year, oil companies were pumping 3.3 million BPD out of the Permian but had only about 3.6 million BPD of pipeline space. That bottleneck has eased somewhat in recent months, after Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) raced to finish its Sunrise expansion project, which came online in November. Plains All American is also on track to start partial service of its Cactus II pipeline by the third quarter of this year, with full service expected by next April. Meanwhile, Plains All American recently joined forces with ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) and another midstream company to move forward with a new pipeline project, Wink to Webster, which should start up in the first half of 2021. That pipeline is crucial to support ExxonMobil’s Permian-focused expansion plans.

Among the hardest-hit have been oil pipeline MLP Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and gas pipeline giant Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP), both of which have lost more than half their value over the last three years.

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Buy For 2019

Monday June 19: Five things the markets are talking about

Last week saw a plethora of bad economic news stateside, starting with continued weakness in inflation, consumer confidence, housing and manufacturing. The Fed followed their script and removed the expected amount of stimulus on the assumption that inflation and the U.S economy will improve.

This week should be much quieter on the central bank and economic fundamental front with only the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) announcing its monetary policy decision (June 21) – expected to maintain at +1.75%. In the U.S, flash June PMI surveys will give investors their first look at this month's and Q2 end data. North of the border, Canada releases its May consumer price data and April's retail sales.

Note: With the loonie (C$1.3242) on such a tear of late and with confidence growing in the Canadian economy, the data will be watched carefully for implications to Bank of Canada (BoC) policy.

Among other events, investors will be focused on the start of formal Brexit negotiations.

Note: Chicago Fed President Charles Evans and Fed Bank of New York President William Dudley are both due to speak in New York Monday. They are the first of a slew of Fed appearances scheduled for this week including Vice Chairman Stanley Fischer and Governor Jerome Powell.

Advisors’ Opinion:

Best Safest Stocks To Invest In 2019

Widows and orphans have had a tough few months.   Long-term U.S. Treasury bonds – often cited as the safest investment on the planet and suitable for the most cautious investors – lost more than seven years' worth of income in just the past four months.   Lending money to the U.S. government for 30 years in exchange for a 2% yield turned out not to be such a good idea. Yields are now 50% higher than they were back in July. And these Treasury bonds, or "T-bonds," have collapsed in price.   But that has given us a fantastic risk/reward setup today…   Let's start by looking at this chart of the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond Fund (TLT)…

Best Safest Stocks To Invest In 2019: Plains All American Pipeline L.P.(PAA)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    The growth opportunities could be significant. Large-scale midstream companies Targa Resources (NYSE:TRGP) and Plains All American Pipelines (NYSE:PAA) currently have billions of dollars of Permian growth projects under way that will significantly increase their cash flow in the coming years. Targa Resources recently secured contracts supporting $500 million of gas gathering and processing investments in the region, which boosted its total backlog of Permian projects to $2.4 billion, or 75% of its total planned spending over the next two years. Those expansions position it to nearly double its earnings by 2021. Plains All American Pipelines, meanwhile, is investing more than 80% of its roughly $2 billion capital budget on the Permian over the next two years, and it could end up spending even more money to meet the demand for oil gathering capacity. Those expansions help position it to grow cash flow at a double-digit annual pace over the next two years. Given Oasis Midstream’s much smaller size, it has the potential to capture needle-moving growth by expanding into the Permian.

    Fortunately for those looking at these attractive valuations, oil’s end-of-days scenario is likely a ways down the road. So we asked three Fool.com contributors to highlight a stock they see in the oil industry right now that looks attractive.

    It’s also just one of several oil pipeline projects in the works throughout the Permian Basin. Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) is currently investing $1.6 billion on Permian Basin expansions, which include two long-haul pipelines and several other complementary projects to help de-bottleneck the flow of crude. Those projects help position Plains to grow earnings and cash flow at a double-digit annual pace over the next two years, setting it up to increase its 4.9%-yielding payout at a healthy rate going forward.

Top 10 Canadian Stocks To Watch For 2019

Canadian home sales fell to the lowest in more than five years in April, as tougher mortgage qualification rules deterred buyers.

The number of homes sold last month declined 2.9 percent from March, the Canadian Real Estate Association said Tuesday from Ottawa. Declines were recorded in about 60 percent of cities tracked including Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto and Montreal.

It was a disappointing start to the busy spring selling season for realtors that suggests markets are still struggling with tougher rules that require borrowers to prove they can afford to cope with higher interest rates. Policy makers made the changes along with other steps, such as foreign buyers taxes, to put the brakes on a surge in price gains last year that some fear could be a danger to the financial system.

The drop in April is the third monthly decline this year, with sales down over 20 percent since December. The new mortgage qualification rules kicked on Jan. 1.

    The market has pummeled master limited partnerships (MLPs) over the past few years due to the impact the oil market downturn had on their operations and business model. Among the hardest-hit have been oil pipeline MLP Plains All American Pipeline (NYSE:PAA) and gas pipeline giant Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP), both of which have lost more than half their value over the last three years. That persistent slump comes even though their turnaround strategies are beginning to gain steam. While these companies still have some work to do before they’re back on solid ground, both could deliver significant returns as they complete their plans and the oil market continues rebounding over the next few years. That upside potential makes them compelling options for investors with a higher tolerance for risk.
