| U.S. Oil and Gas Royalty Trusts |
| U.S. Royalty Trusts differ from Canadian Royalty Trusts in that they are precluded by law from making acquistitions financed by debt or new equity. As such the U.S Trusts will cease to exist in the future at some point when their assets are depleted. The Canadian Trusts continue as they develop further resources or purchase assets from other companies. Listed below is our Master List of U.S Royalty Trusts. The stocks listed below trade on the various exchanges in the United States. All Royalty Trusts (both U.S and Canadian) have been going through a period of consolidation during the past couple of years as such the list below has continued to shrink. U.S. Royalty Trusts trade on the basis of income--as such it is important to check not only todays yield, but more importantly what the yield will be or is projected to be in the future. The price of Oil and Gas drive the payouts so as oil and gas fall and rise the payouts change month to month. Most of these issues pay a monthly payout--and as such the yield can move every month. |
