Investment Q&A

Q: I noticed there has been no recent question on SUNC. I hung on to it following the PKI takeover and recently added a bit for income. They have now announced a dividend that is close to 7%. My question, is it likely secure, if such a thing exists in this day?

Q: Hi could you please give an update on SO - it’s kind of moved sideways in for quite awhile so wondering if you see it moving any time soon.

Thanks

Q: What would be your 3 favourite drillers/service companies in the US and Canada? Thanks.

Q: NXF is a covered call EFT. Do you have a recommendation for an energy sector ETF that does not sell covered calls? Within my RRSP, I would like to own two ETF’s, the energy sector, to hold my energy related investments. Is there a rule of thumb to guide the percentage one should put into each (ie: 25% in a covered call ETF; 75% in an ETF which does not sell covered calls)?

Thanks for your help.

Q: Could you provide your thoughts on Suncor results.

How is stock's present valuation ?

Is it safe to buy/add at current levels or wait for a pullback ?

Thank You

Q: I am looking to move away from some under performing stocks and looking at these as replacements. Any concerns? Ones you would prefer?
thanks so much.

if not too early pls comment on the above companies

Q: I have followed Rick Rule for a couple of decades now and always find him to be a valuable source of insight regarding the natural resources sector. Lately, he has been saying that he sees a big opportunity in the oil and gas sector because it is so "hated." A contrarian, Rick says he "loves hate." However, I am a bit confused--I don't see the "hate." For example, while a barrel of WTIC at $60 is not great, the unit price of XEG is at a 10 year high, and all of my oil and gas stocks are doing well.

Rule believes that the price of oil is bound to increase because of the recent lack of capital expenditure in the sector (he cites $1-2 billion per day of under-investment), and as a result the related equities will do well.

Do you share Rule's belief that the sector is undervalued ("hated") and therefore a good investment given a 5 year time horizon?

Thanks as always for your expertise.

Q: Despite it's name, Canadian Solar, is listed only on NASDAQ. Please advise whether there are similar companies listed in Canada, producing industrial-scale solar/wind energy battery storage products. Pls. also indicate their prognosis for investment.

Q: Good morning.

Please provide your thoughts on BEP.UN latest earnings reports and do you think this is a buy at this time?

Q: What is your view on the cardinal deal? I am a little disappointed

Q: Relating to ongoing AI buildout. I have exposure to the power generation side through Brookfield Renewable (BEP.UN), Duke Energy (DUK), and Constellation Energy (CEG), maybe some overlap here.

Given that I am effectively covered on green power, regulated utilities, and nuclear baseload, what are the best complementary high-yield blue chips in Data Center REITs, midstream energy, or industrial supply chain that would diversify my AI exposure without duplicating my existing utility holdings?" I was thinking
Realty Income for physical space. It has high yield however may not play in that space, but what about DLR for eg to compliment (lower yield however)

Q: I was very unexpectedly "stopped out" of my holdings in PHX today though, thankfully, not at the low. Can you explain why there was such an unpleasant (i.e. approximately 9%) swing in the PHX price this morning?

Q: NXF.B appears to have a cycle. When it is up it is up for about 1 month to two. Then it drops slightly under what I paid for it. This lasts for about two years. Then it goes up for 1 -2 months again. It is up now. Should I sell and wait untill it drops again or just keep holding for income? 80 yr old investing for income with individual stockd and some covered call ETF's with a ten year time frame. I hold individual stocks included in the ETF.

Q: There appear to be varied opinions on the demand for Canada's future lng demand in the future. The us appears to have the upper hand as far as exporting. Two of the kitimat lng project holdings looking to sell. Your opinion for the next couple years for the above companies. Would you still hold enb as a long term hold?

Q: What would be the safest for dividends and longer term growth, PPL or WCP.

Q: Could you please provide your analysis of these two energy funds.
Thanks as always for a great service.

Q: I bought and traded out of HME and then re-purchased at the recent low... It is a fairly small producer and the stock price seems to be range-bound... $1.89 to $2.20 ± . What are the long term prospects for this company ? Should I just keep flipping it for a profit , or do you see it pivoting upward ?

Q: Please provide your thoughts on MATR.T
