Q: I am thinking of buying these companies in my tfsa account in equal weights. Do you have any concern with any of these companies and would you be able to rank them in order of possible upside? Thank you

Q: Peter and Co,
The UK has introduced a ‘windfall tax’ of 25% on energy company’s profits. The bite of this tax can be substantially reduced on profits that are reinvested in more fossil fuel extraction. While this reduced tax rate might result in greater investment in oil/gas extraction and, therefore, production and profits it would appear that in subsequent years companies using reinvestment to reduce current taxes will have to make greater and greater reinvestments to keep ahead of the 25% tax. I understand that the existing UK tax on fossil fuels is 40%.
My portfolios are very overweight in energy stocks and particularly Vermilion. I understand that VET’s Corrib gas field is located within the boundaries of Ireland and the company pays only the Irish tax of 25% and has never paid taxes to the UK.
Would you please confirm or correct my statements about the UK taxes on fossil fuels. and the advantage that VET enjoys being an Irish producer?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: I have a small percentage in each of these companies, I would like to add to some or all can you tell me in order of preference you would suggest I add them.
Thanks, Dorothy
