Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: As an investor, I've been in & out of Questor a few times over the past 10yrs. They seems to have a great technology to reduce green house gases but they never seem to get much traction in the oil/gas industry. For an industry that is under constant scrutiny to reduce emissions you would think they would get better adoption of their technology. What needs to change? The new US government will definitely be more pro regulation to fight climate change but will this be enough. Somehow I think the company should be doing more self promotion within industry.

How would you rate the performance of the management team to date?

Thanks

Q: I just asked a question about comment/thoughts on an oil/gas stock then I came across your response to a question where you mentioned the 5i couch potato portfolio (is it published elsewhere?). The clean energy ETF has done very well ICLN-Q. Would you recommend it? It has certainly been on a tear. If yes, could it replace the oil/gas component?

Q: Good morning,
I just completed my annual portfolio review to identify potential tax loss harvesting candidates for the 2020 tax year and given that both KEY and ENB are both underwater, I am considering the option of selling both stocks and repurchasing them in 30 days.
My first question is which stock, stocks or ETF would you recommend I purchase to replace KEY and ENB for the next 30 days before repurchasing both KEY and ENB if that is indeed my best course of action.
My second question is whether or not these two pipeline stocks continue to have a place in an income generating non registered account portfolio or should I simply replace them now with some other income generating stock and if so which one or two stocks would you recommend.
I thank you in advance and look forward to hearing your response.
Francesco

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. I own AQN, FTS, TRP.

I am trying to put into perspective the relative market share (whatever the appropriate metric is?) of Renewable Energy vs Traditional Energy. The recent surge in renewables has, I'm sure, accelerated the transition from traditional to renewable. I am wondering how far into the future the oil industry has (20 years?)?

While I have no data, I suspect if we broke down the various energy subsectors into Renewables (solar, hydro, tidal, wind) vs Gas vs Oil, that Renewables would currently make up roughly 10-20%? Can you please give me the current breakdown vs where we are forecast to be in 5-10-20 years?

Thanks...Steve

Q: Hi team,
Your response to a member's question on your "forward thoughts about CNE's Q3,s earnings were positive.Now that the earnings were out today, are your views still favourable?Total debt to total assets also seem reasonable.One year target prices vary from 7.00$ to 9.00$, seems overly "optimistic".
Many thanks,
Jean
