Q: Can you give me your thoughts on Whitecaps earnings? Seems like another not great quarter aside from decent revenue and production growth. Share price is down a couple percent more than its peers today. But I'm more concerned with the long term trend, it has been weak to say the least. At one point I was up about 25% on WCP when oil prices were much lower than they are now. WCP doesn't seem to be participating in the oil price recovery like many of its peers, possibly due to its acquisitions. I understand its a quality company with an okay div that was just increased. But if one wants to play the oil price recovery which is a little risky, don't you want to invest in a company with some torque that will actually benefit rather than take the risk for little reward. CVE for example has done great and also has a div (little smaller). Should I sit tight and wait for better results or lessen my position and add a company that has shown results the last few quarters?

Q: Can you please suggest a US$ stock that would be leveraged to an increase in the oil price? I am looking for a good, 5i-style company, but if possible, not necessarily a giant that doesn't have a lot of room to run. I appreciate you don't follow the US market but do let me know if there is something that you might be able to recommend.

Thank you,

Chris

Q: Maybe - we're really going to see a sustained positive - ongoing movement in the Cdn. oil patch. That said, I'm looking short term (1 yr) for a bite into several undervalued stocks, particularly where leverage is large. Would appreciate your comments on these in order of preference as well as any others. Thank you.

Q: Well I was lucky enough to hold shares of ANDV and it was taken over by MPC this a.m.

Combination of shares and cash.

If you were holder of ANDV what would you do at this point? Sell or hold? Partial or total?

Thanks

Q: I am a shareholder in Andeavor which announced this morning that it was being acquired in a friendly deal by Marathon Petroleum Corporation. I previously held shares in Western Refining that was in turn acquired by Tesoro, Andeavor's prior name, in a share deal. Marathon is offering $152 a share, payable in cash or shares. I am inclined to take the cash and run (assuming the deal clears antitrust review - note there is a large deal completion discount with Andeavor shares closing at $138 today). Do you have any thoughts on what a prudent course of action would be/would you be more inclined to take the shares or cash? (I hold the shares in a TFSA so no tax payable)

Q: I recently sold my Spartan shares for $6.77 - as of yesterday the price was down to $6.51 and I am looking at repurchasing.
in your opinion, should I purchase Vermilion or stay with Spartan (is there an advantage to be found here)?
It is my understanding that owners of Spartan receive .15 of a Vermilion share if the deal goes through!
