Q: I have always considered invests in companies that have operations in Russia or are Russian domiciled as being too risky, but recently came across Gazprom. I would appreciate your opinion as to the risk of investing in Gazprom at this time. A perusal of a Reuters report on the company indicates that the company’s metrics look ok and it has a 25% payout ratio. If purchased it would be for income.
Thank you for considering my question

Q: Hello 5i. I would like your opinion on the renewable energy industry. These companies seem to have done well over the yr. Would you classify these as being cyclical and what would there cycle be? I am looking at getting into these but find their valuations expensive currently. Do you see a catalyst for their prices falling in the near future or do they have momentum on their side?

Q: I own TOU in a taxable account at a loss which I could use to offset gains this year. I have several choices at this point:-
1. Continue to hold,
2. Sell and buy back after 30 days.
3. Sell and wait until Dec. to buy back hoping to take advantage of others tax loss selling.
4. Sell and deploy money elsewhere.
With the current climate for energy stocks I would appreciate your guidance - if there is a change of government in Oct. will this likely affect the outlook for energy - if so how?

Q: Hi Folks,
I'm thinking of slowly getting back into the energy sector. I like the mid cap space - companies with good balance sheets, existing production, growth potential. I'm considering ERF, PXT, WCP, KEL and PSK. How would you rank this group. Any others that you would recommend?
Thanks as usual,
Dennis
