Q: Would it be prudent to reduce energy exposure at this time? My wives RRIF account holds ARX, TOU, & FRU they represent 21.8% of the portfolio. My RRIF account holds ARX, TOU, HWX, PPL, OBE, & PD they represent 33.3 % of the portfolio, PPL alone is 15% of the total portfolio. I know I should reduce this exposure what would you suggest?

Q: In a response to Chris on February 27th, you indicated OBE was OK but you thought TVE was better. I am curious what brought you to that conclusion. Maybe I get too caught up in simple metrics. For example, OBE has a PE of 1.0 and a PB of 0.52 compared to TBE where the same ratios are 4.3 and 1.3. I realize it is not as simple as that. I hope you can educate me on how to dig deeper into your preference for TVE. Thanks again for helping the little person.

Q: I'm down 50%+ in these positions in a registered account with a 5-7 year time horizon. Which of these would you suggest I sell and which would you consider holds? Please offer better alternatives in the same sectors for the sells. thanks!
