The over 250 companies whose data is embedded in the website are drawn from the approximate 1,750 Mining, Oil & Gas, Oil & Gas Service Companies and Oil & Gas Income Trusts that are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Toronto Venture Exchange. They have market capitalizations that range from $50 million to $1.5 billion, and collectively operate in over 25 countries around the world. We believe they are companies that serious investors should consider investing in where such investors believe a portion of their wealth should be invested in speculative, high risk, but potential high return securities. The National Post, one of Canada’s national newspapers, today suggests under an article headed ‘First Rule of Investing - Know Yourself’ the following portfolio asset mixes (reported source: Ontario Securities Commission Investor Education):

  Cash & Equivalents Low Risk Moderate Risk Speculative
Early Career Years 10% 10% 50% 30%
Age 35 - 55 10% 30% 40% 20%
Retirement - over 55 20% 40% 30% 10%

Reader comments as to whether they agree or disagree that Junior Mining and Oil & Gas stocks ought to be considered as part of a portfolio are welcomed - particularly in circumstances of prevailing U.S. dollar uncertainty, high oil prices, and the apparent ongoing escalation of world interest in gold as a safe haven investment.
