Q: SPB has taken quite a beating missing estimates, trouble with the Kamp purchase ;but has 2 big investors, one being BAM, has experience with growth through acquisitions. I initially bought at
$15.00 and looking at topping up to 3% position. I am a patient investor and like the almost 6.5 % yield with the stock now just north of $ 11.00.
Your thoughts. are appreciated. Derek

Q: As I write this Feb 23/22 Russia has begun to bomb Kyiv in Ukraine. All market commentators are saying that oil will go up with this invasion as a catalyst. Do you agree? please name a ticker or two or three. I have noticed Devon DVN and GUSH the three times leverage.
I am down about 20% in my Tesla shares in a margin account. I will probably be margin called in the next few days.
I could trim my position taking a 20-25%.
Should I put something into Oil as this Russian conflict persists?

Q: Hello 5i,
Please include the payout ratio in the DIVIDEND section of company information. Payout ration using net income forACOX is 95%. Using operating income it is 11%. Is this correct? There seems to be quite a large discrepancy between the two.

Q: I am considering increasing my investments in pipelines. I am looking at Enbridge but I have noticed over the last 3 weeks a number of analysts on BNN when questioned about Enbridge have indicated that although there is nothing wrong with Enbridge they consider that there at better opportunities in the sector - they seem to talking about Pembina & TC Energy. I would be interested to hear your thoughts. I know that your recent review of Enbridge was B+

Q: Hi 5i
I am considering initiating a position in earthstone energy but there have been no questions asked on this energy stock and I would like your opinion.

The company has made several acquisitions in 2021 with another expected to close in second quarter..

What is your opinion on this company going forward and would you be interested at current price levels and if not why, why not.
Where do you it going medium/short term....Do they have potential given current the economic conditions affecting oil?

Many thanks
Jim

Appreciate very much your input and tks.Larry

Q: Hello,
I have a decent amount of exposure to names such as Brookfield Renew., Enbridge, Fortis. Should we expect a large correction in these names if rates increase faster than expected (if so what would be your wild guess in % for a correction?) I am a long term holder and don’t need the income. I was hoping that rate increases would be mitigated by the inflation we are experiencing. I am trying to decide if I should sell some and replace with financials and technology. I am slightly overweight utilities and main reason was for stability / safety. Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,
Was looking to add to my half position of FTS and came across this news.... heading.....

"Veritas Downgrades Fortis to Sell from Buy, Keeps CA$57.50 Price Target."

Can you provide any insight on why they would consider FTS a sell and would you agree?
Would you be comfortable adding at this price for 2-3 yr hold or would you wait for maybe better entry point?

thx
Jim
