Q: I have been watching KML. My portfolio is a bit mixed up these days, and could probably use a little more diversification within my dividend plays (weighted heavily in Banks at the moment). At 4.5% yield, this looks like a decent play, and it feels like there is upside potential with the share price, with limited downside (assuming the Pembina deal stays on track, as the company has said). I like the stability of their income, and it looks as though they have "taken their lumps". How do you guys feel about KML these days?

Thank you in advance

Don

Q: Hey guys ! I own both SCL.CA and MTL.CA since many years, roughly 3% of my total portfolio, I am down between 40-50 %. Like many of your subscribers, I am not very confident for the future of energy in Canada and I am seriously thinking to pull the plug on both. What would you recommend ? wait until the next earnings or flush now.
thank you !

Q: Was listening to bnn today and the analyst made me relook at my dividend paying oil and gas stocks. How would you rank the four of them? And if you think there is a better choice, which one? Not including the majors though.

Q: I have a question about 3092.

Hey Peter:
What is your viewpoint on VLE action in the last month. It was as high as 3.50 and is now below a $1. Is it worth buying more to lower the cost as they have no debt and some say $60M in cash. I saw it dropping due to the political issue with Turkey but they said that has no impact where they are located. Appreciate your viewpoint?

Q: Can you suggest any companies in the energy sector that have a (very) solid balance sheet, are paying a dividend, and are growing or keeping their production constant ? I'm seeing lots of high dividends (Surge, Whitecap), but both of those still carry a fair amount of debt.

Q: I've been sitting on Pan Orient for a few years now. I've suffered the oil blues during the sector meltdown but this one has done well this year at least. They've had a couple of recent oil discoveries on their Thailand concessions and are starting a new drilling effort for gas in Indonesia. I'm thinking they will soon be increasing their profit notably. Would you hold out for higher gains or dump and move on?

Q: I'm in the process of putting together a list of mid range oil and gas producers that might benefit from a change in government policy following the upcoming election. Any thoughts on my thesis, and what mid range producers might you recommend?

Q: Hi, would like your opinion on psi going forward.
Is it a service company only for oil and gas,or is it also diversified to other sectors? How about debt and management?
Would this be a good tax loss candidate as I’am down 35%, then buy back, or would you stay out of the sector. I also have Vermillion ,WCP, SPB at 5-6% of portfolio
Thanks

Q: I currently hold PEGI, TRP, ENB, PPL and CU. (approximately 20% of my RRIF portfolio)
However I am thinking of adding WCP, TOU and/or TOG.
Could you please rate these in order of preference. Or am I too heavy in resources.

Q: I am considering buying long calls - Jan 2022 on VET or ARX because there seems to be a lot of consensus that oil prices will eventually go up. I frequently sell covered calls but almost never buy calls. However, buying around current prices is very inexpensive and 2022 is a long runway, I would wait until I see tax selling volumes, probably in Nov., before buying. I would appreciate your thoughts or suggestions for any other candidates . Thanks
