Q: Hi team,

My first time real bloodbath experience. Just wanted to ask if you change your comment about not taking an aggressive stance on VET after this past weekend. Can the company survive with say $30 oil prices for the next 6 months, given the fact their debt to cash flow situation is going to get much worse. Would you buy today or would you expect the price to go even lower?

Thanks for being with us during such exciting times! :)

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
Please deduct as many questions as you see fit. I have a basket of oil stocks which of course I have wished I did not own for quite a while. Monday will be brutal. My question is surrounding the fact that some of our companies have significant hedges in place at higher $ per barrel while others will not have any or many. In the event that the market torches them all on Monday equally would you please research and provide details on hedging % , period and $ for a large list below
ARX,CPG,ERF,GTE,KEL,PXT,SGY,TOG,VET,WCP,YGR

Secondly could you advise of the debt to cash flow of the worst 4 of the above and the best 4 of the above.

Please provide detailed response with as many questions deducted as you see fit.

Thanks for all you do

Dennis

Q: Hello, is there a stock symbol I can use to follow the price of Crude Oil WTI? I have just looked on Marketwatch.com and it was 41.57$. The symbol they use is CL.1, but if I use that exact same symbol elsewhere I get no results. There does not seem to be a standardized symbol for crude oil WTI. Thanks, Gervais

Q: I never thought I'd see VET at $10.00 Is this a great buy or just a disaster - moreso than it is already waiting to happen?
Is this company sustainable at this number? With anyone but Trudeau at the helm I'd think theres a chance...but with him I fear its all downhill.
Your opinion....does this company survive??

Q: OVV (Encana): just looked at fundamentals supplied by CIBC Investors Edge - everything looks very good, if the data is correct? Please provide comments on this stock for me as a potential BUY or not? What are the true facts? Here is what CIBC had: ROE=15.47, TTM PE = 1.75x, B.V. = $28.00, D/E = 83% (high) & PR = 7.17%.

Q: Inter Pipeline has a current dividend of 8.9 %. According to TD Waterhouse today, the the 2020 estimated payout ratios are 81 % of AFFO and 197 % of EPS. The net debt to EBITDA ratio is 6.3 %. These numbers are high compared to other similar companies. Would it make sense to sell this stock and purchase ENB or PPL instead ? Thanks, Joe

Q: Hello. What are your thoughts on Ensign Energy Services (ESI.T)? They recently had a dividend reduction after engaging in the purchase of a competitor (Trinidad Drilling). The stock has collapsed and continues on a downward spiral. Is this a good long-term (5 yrs+) investment?
I am down considerably right now, should I take my losses or average down right now? Thank you.
