Q: Hi,
Peyto is one of the securities that likely will get dropped from the TSX index this month due to is low capitalization (below the rate required to stay in the index). My question is .... why with this impending removal from the listing is this stock moving up significantly the last week or so? Do you see other factors influencing the price, and would you consider buying at this time?
Thanks .

Q: Hello there,
Seems like investors are not rewarding growth in production in the oil patch. I own PXT which has done well over the last year but has been stuck in the mud around the same price since February but has bounced around a lot. Because the market is currently not rewarding for production growth , PXT is focusing on share buybacks and a very strong balance sheet which is great. Any thoughts on them initiating their first dividend and becoming more of a growth plus yield story? Return even more cash to shareholders?
thanks

Q: "High Arctic Energy Services said Tuesday that Papua New Guinea has validated its LNG Gas Agreement. PNG Petroleum Minister's validation included new "good faith" concessions such as the preparation of a National Content Plan, third party pipeline access, possible state participation in pipeline ownership as well as LNG transport tankers."
Does this change your opinion on the company again? Thanks.

Q: I notice that this company pays a monthly stock dividend plus CIL(cash in lieu). I have been told that there is no taxation in a non-registered account until the security is sold. I have never seen this with any other stocks I own. Can I get your opinion on the advantages or disadvantages of this type of dividend payment?

Q: I currently have a position in cnq and wondering if this company is the best way to get exposure to oil. I am targeting a 5% position in my portfolio for oil stocks. I am considering selling this position in favour of Royal Dutch Shell. I am not concerned with the Canadian/us exchange since I hold both currencies. My targeted rate of return is 10% per year over the long run (dividend plus capital appreciation)and a 6% current yield in RDS goes a long way in achieving this return. I am also not concerned with the tax impact so the dividend tax credit is not an issue.
What is your preferred way to hold you exposure to oil? Is there a stock that you prefer to cnq or RDS?

Thanks for your comments.
