Royal Energy rides oil and gas wave
Article Abstract:
The Royal Bank of Canada's Royal Energy Fund has boosted its exposure to energy producers and oil field services companies. Around 83% of the portfolio was invested in oil and gas producers as of June 30, 1999, after reducing exposure to integrated oils. The shift in portfolio strategy was due to the surging prices of crude oil and strong natural gas prices. The fund was up by 39.3% for the eight-month period ended Aug 31, 1999.
