Investment Q&A

Q: hi 5i
I heard this morning that Cenovus was preparing an offering bid for Meg...is there any truth to this news?
thx

Q: Your thoughts on 2nd quarter earnings for Whitecap Resources? Thanks

Q: Whitecap has crept up to 5.5% position in my portfolio and is now my 3rd biggest position. This is in part due to the combing with Veren.

I believe they have a good management team and balance sheet is fairly decent.

The dividend is quite nice as well.

If I think there is room to move is it too risky letting this run to 7% or is it time to rebalance and take a bit off the table.

If you can't give personal advice;)

Hypothetically if you had a 5.5% position in WCP would you let it run and monitor or trim it up a bit;)

Thanks, Colin.

Q: Good morning,

I am thinking of taking a capital loss on TOU, and with the proceeds buy WCP for 30+days. Plan is to take 2 months of the monthly dividend of WCP, and then buy TOU back in early September ahead of the $0.50 ex-dividend date. I know I will miss the TOU $0.35 dividend next month with this strategy, but from purely a dividend payout strategy, it is accretive.

Anything I am missing with this strategy?

Thx as always.

Q: Hi 5i
How was the Strathcona conference call?
Strathcona announced they would be paying out a special $10 dividend if the meg deal does not go through.
How would 5i play this?
Currently a holder of meg...Wondering if this is an opportunity to hedge a little?
Where do you think meg ends up if the deal fails?
Also would you continue to hold meg...the clock keeps ticking on this one.
thx

Q: Any news/reason for the nice increase today? Also what are your long-term thoughts on this company, are there better utility stocks for an income investor? Thank you.

Q: Would you provide an update on your thoughts on FEC.

Q: I'm looking into the future of a Carney Government that might enable the CO2 -EOR(Enhanced Oil Recovery) and how that might help Whitecap(WCP) and Pembina (PPL).

I know in order for it to happen he has to lift the exclusion of EOR from (Bill-59) and streamline it for specific projects via national interest projects, amend assessment and emission laws to reduce regulatory friction(a key request from oil companies) and revise carbon pricing by incentivizing EOR as a CO2 storage pathway possibly with credit stacking.

If the government is able to do this, how lucrative will this be for stocks especially Whitecap (WCP) which operates the Weyburn-Midale CO2 EOR project, the world's largest and longest running CO2 flood in Saskatchewan and Pembina(PPL) who is collaborating to build the Alberta Carbon Grid to transport captured CO2 to oilfields for EOR and sequestration.

Based on this would they be a long term buy today because Carney is now PM?

Thanks

Q: In what order would you buy PPL, SOBO and TRP? Are all three buyable at todays prices? Which has the best upside? Which is the most likely to increase their dividend?

Q: Peyto has been significantly outperforming Arc over the last year and beyond. Which company is likely to outperform in terms of total return over the medium term and why?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: How were the earnings in early May?The stock seems to be doing okay and any other thoughts would be welcome. THX

Q: Is energy a good sector to invest right now?

Would you have a preference between IMO or CNQ?

Q: Looking for best in breed in the energy midstream and distribution space, US geographically. For dividend stability and growth, which is a better long term play in a diversified US Rif. Duk is termed a utility and my take is that this may affect growth vs Williams. Your take?

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide an update on Logan Energy, its fundamentals and balance sheet, insider ownership, expected revenue and cash flow growth. Also could you comment on management which apparently has had success in prior ventures.
Thanks.

Q: Which company has the most upside.

Q: While very disappointed in what we will finally get for our PKI shares, I am thinking that the best option might be to take all SUN shares for my PKI shares and hope that the SUN shares go higher, perhaps closer to $44 over the next 6 months. I don't see anyone getting all cash for their PKI shares. What would you do with your shares? Also, I voted against the takeover and I am wonder when and how I will get the opportunity to indicate my choice of compensation? Thanks for your great service.

Q: Hello,

Would you be comfortable adding to both here? Or wait for a better entry price? Long-term hold. Which are you more bullish on if you had to pick 1 over the other?

Thanks!

Q: Hello,

You've replied to questions regarding Valeura Energy's financials earlier in the year. It seemed at the time, you used Bloomberg's numbers which differ greatly from that of the company's. Wondering if you can take another look and comment on whether you feel the current share price still represents good value. Their revenue and cash position over the past few years seems decent for a smaller oil play. Just wondering if I should continue hanging on to my position for a little more potential upside?
Thank you,
Tom

Q: Hello Team,
Could you rank these three pipelines for total return over the next couple of years. and why?
Thank You,
Barry

Q: Given all the positive news on new contracts to supply renewable energy, any idea of what the price target should now be for BEPC?

Thanks
