Roger S. Conrad needs no introduction to individual and professional investors, many of whom have profited from his decades of experience uncovering the best dividend-paying stocks for accumulating sustainable wealth.

Roger built his reputation with Utility Forecaster, a publication he founded more than 20 years ago that The Hulbert Financial Digest routinely ranked as one of the best investment newsletters. He’s also a sought-after expert on master limited partnerships (MLP) and former Canadian royalty trusts.

In April 2013, Roger reunited with his long-time friend and colleague, Elliott Gue, becoming co-editor of Energy & Income Advisor, a semimonthly online newsletter that’s dedicated to uncovering the most profitable opportunities in the energy sector.

Although the masthead may have changed, readers can count on Roger to deliver the same high-quality analysis and rational assessment of the best dividend-paying utilities, MLPs and dividend-paying Canadian energy names.

Focus on MLPs: Questions and Answers

By Roger S. Conrad on Dec. 2, 2018

How have MLPs recommended in Energy and Income Advisor fared year-to-date? Is there any reason to expect a better performance in 2019?

The table “EIA Energy MLP Performance” highlights master limited partnerships recommended in three places: Our Actively Managed Portfolio, the Focus List and the “legacy” portfolios that we continue to track on the EIA website.

Endangered Dividends List

By Roger S. Conrad on Dec. 2, 2018

The latest two EDL members to announce dividend reductions are Bonterra Energy (TSX: BNE, OTC: BNEFF) and Sanchez Midstream Partners (NYSE: SNMP).

Canadian oil and gas producer Bonterra is slashing its monthly payout from 10 cents Canadian to just a penny a share. That’s a direct consequence of a decline in its realized selling price for oil to just CAD21.50 per barrel from CAD77.20 since the end of the third quarter.

Energy Sector Earnings: The Recovery Continues

By Roger S. Conrad on Nov. 7, 2018

It’s hard to tell from the volatility of sector stocks. But third quarter earnings season is going well for best in class energy companies up and down the value chain.

A lot of oil and gas in North America is still bottlenecked by transportation constraints. That’s hampering producers in many places, notably the booming Permian Basin. Canada, meanwhile, is in a virtual depression with Western Canada Select recently fetching less than $20 a barrel and natural gas at the AECO hub going for just 48 cents per million BTU.

Round Table: Our Take on Q3 Earnings So Far

By Roger S. Conrad on Nov. 7, 2018

Are you concerned by the large number of energy company dividend cuts we seem to be seeing this earnings season? – Roger Conrad: Let’s get one thing straight right up front. There’s no such thing as a “good” dividend cut. When a company reduces its payout, investors lose income and share prices typically fall to reflect the lower amount. That’s why we want to avoid stocks at risk of dividend cuts and it’s the reason we have an Endangered Dividends List.
