With US industrial production numbers for October coming in at a 4 month low of 0.1% versus expectations of 0.4%, investors managed to drive up the major averages to end the day in positive territory. The Dow closed up by 30.46 points or 0.3% at 10,437.42, the Nasdaq advanced by 5.93 points or 0.3% to 2,203.78 and the S&P 500 rose by 1.02 points or 0.1% to 1,110.32. Before jumping into these markets, one must ask the question: are the markets overvalued? When considering investing in turbulent times such as these, how does one manage risk? These are a few on the questions I posed to portfolio manager, Craig Stanford of TriVest Wealth Counsel.

On the flip side, gas producers are facing a "challenging quarter" depending on the value of their hedges, added Martin Pelletier with TriVest Wealth Counsel. "On a 30,000 foot view, given that the majority of producers in Alberta are gas weighted, we had a pretty abysmal quarter for gas prices."

Martin Pelletier, the managing director of Calgary-based TriVest Wealth Counsel said it's still too early to tell if the uptick in acquisition activity in the U.S. will spill over to Canada. "Given a lot of what we've seen with Chesapeake and XTO, there's certainly been a rebound in interest in natural gas. The question is whether it will manifest itself in acquisition opportunities here in Canada," he said in an interview. "Given some of the transactions we've seen, it appears some of the U.S. gas producers are taking a long-term bullish view on natural gas."
