Review of Pason Systems Inc.

Q: I’ve been putting some money into oil and gas stocks and energy service names over the last couple of weeks. That was a timely blog post on EFX yesterday, and my question relates to that company and PSI. Given the current elevated oil price environment, do you have a preference between the two (this question bakes in an assumption that you still like PSI, given that it’s in the portfolio, but correct me otherwise), or do you view them as complementary enough that owning both would be appropriate? If you do favour one over the other, please explain why.

Q: I’m hoping you may be able to identify a top 10 list of O&G-adjacent companies that could be considered the sector’s “pick-and-shovel” CO’s that could benefit from medium and long term production increases and not so dependant on the commodity price increasing such as what O&G producers are. If possible, please rank from highest to lowest conviction for stock price appreciation over the next 5 years. Thank you.

Q: In my TFSA the following companies are all in the red: ATS, DRX, KSI, LUCA, NTR, PSI, PXT. Can you suggest which ones are likely to recover in the next year or two, and which ones I could sell as laggards and reinvest the money in something "growtier". Thank you.
