Q: What is exactly the problem with EIF as its SP keeps on falling daily? Is this company actually has an operational/financial problem, or is the market's perception that it could have such problems going forward? EIF is one of my key holdings and I'm down about 40% so far (actually closer to 90% from the start of 2020). If it's the latter I might have to consider cutting my losses. Thanks.

Q: So with the pipeline companies yielding between 8 and 20% and factoring in a 50% dividend cut, they would still have a nice yield. I suspect that some might increase, or at least slow price decline if cut.
Please list these companies in order of balance sheet strength and debt % and coverage, and order of preference. Thanks

Looking to clean up my oil and gas names but don't mind keeping some or adding others to maintain some exposure.

How would you rank TOG/TOU/BTE/WCP in terms of bounce back potential/likelihood of survival/balance sheet strength? What is you top two?
