Investment Q&A

Q: I own 4 of the most popular energy names in this rising market. Question: should I go vertical and put more cash into each name, or, go horizontal and add more names? Really curious here!

Q: Hi 5i; do you think TOU has a high probability of going up in the next week, and if so, by how much?

Q: In the past you have recommend ~5% towards energy. With everything going on with the O&G market and demand picture skewing positively can I assume it is okay to let this portion of a portfolio grow beyond that mark before rebalancing?

At what percentage of a portfolio would you suggest as a good ballpark to start trimming?

Added to this sector last fall and it has crept up accordingly.

Thank you.

Q: I am interested in buying some ARX which I would normally buy on the Canadian exchange but I am currently holding more $US cash than $Can. In the US ARX trades on the pink sheets. Are there any risks in buying it on the pink sheets? If I do buy it there, would I be able to swap it over the the Canadian side of my account with out any issues?

Q: Greetings - Considering the impressive returns from the energy sector last year, the leadership of the sector so far this year, the current supply demand scenario for oil , the likelihood of greater US production, geopolitical realities, and what we might see in the next 3 to 6 months (insofar as there is any clarity that far out) 1. Is energy a 5 or 6 year investment or more likely a shorter term trade. 2. Does it seem to you that the oil price is more likely to continue to climb throughout the next 6 months rather than to recede. 3.Which 3 of these 8 listed securities offers the best upside and which 3 the least risk and thirdly if you had to pick just one to buy a full position of today which one of the eight would you personally click the buy button on and would you be comfortable doing so at the current price.
Thank you for the input - Ken

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide an update on the fundamentals of Questor including cash on hand, level of debt, revenue, etc. Also do you think they have a management team that could take this company to the next level. Are there still decent growth prospects for this company. Thanks.

Q: I would like to sell BEPC to lock in a loss and then rebuy in 30 days. Do you see anything from the company or the market that might result in an increased price in that time period. Can you recommend a similar company to purchase for the 30 days that would reflect any market fluctuations. I already own AQN in this space.

Q: any small cap oil and gas stocks capturing your attention for good reasons?

Q: Hello Peter,
For the oil and gas sector, what do you think of Arc Resources and Tamarack Valley? Do you think they are too high or considering the oil price and if it continues to tick higher, the stocks will do well. Much appreciated.

Q: Good Afternoon,
I would like your opinion on which of the above stocks would be a better buy for growth and income for a multi-year hold.
Thank you,
Jane

Q: with the recent rise in oil prices are there service companies or drillers that could be worth getting into ?

Q: Hi, while ENB and SU are going up TOU is going down. Is there any specific reason for that ? Thank you.

Q: I notice that blx has a P/E of 121 at the moment. Which seems pretty high. Should this be something to be worried about?

Q: As per your team Industrials, tech and materials/energy can be decent sectors in times of inflation.

Can you please recommend USA & Cdn ETF that you would consider holding in each above sector.

Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! If you only have funds to purchase one of these, which one would you prefer? Cheers, Tamara

Q: I sold VET last month as a tax loss harvest and bought NNRG as a replacement. I'm thinking of now switching back to VET. It seems to have done better than NNRG over the last month. Would you endorse this switch back? This is for medium risk profile and an already existing portfolio of oil & gas stocks.

Q: Want your opinion on the last earnings report, i was in the stock since the bottom of the pandemic.Want to know if you see more upside from here.

Q: What do you think of the merger announcement today? Is the big drop in EFX warranted?

The above seems to be on a tear that last few months, would like to know your take on the above.
