Q: Hi again,
Sorry the symbol I was asking about is HEU. I've copied the question again below.

Hi 5i, I think over the next 3-5 years oil is going to rally up. In doing some reading I found this etf. The management fee is definitely higher than I like. I'm not exactly sure how the 200% correlation works but it sounds like if energy goes up it would be a good thing. Could you give your opinion on this fund, also could you give some better options for getting some more energy in my portfolio if you know of some. Thanks!

Q: Greetings

I am presently without any exposure to oil and gas companies. To what extent do you think PKI might be a good place to re-enter the sector? Your most recent review was a tepid "B" so I am completely open to other suggestions you might have.

I am a retired conservative investor who has no need to "shoot out the lights" and realize that diversity is a good thing.

Thanks

Q: Cathedral Energy Services (CET) and Enterprise Group (E)

The above two companies are two very small contrarian bets on a recovery in the energy market within my portfolio that are becoming smaller everyday. I am looking at consolidating the two holdings into a single one. Cathedral seems to have smart management, communicates well with its shareholders and is working on managing their balance sheet during the downturn. On the other hand, Enterprise has had some recent "C" suite insider buying. Should I maintain both positions, or consolidate into one? If I consolidate into one, which one do you like better and why?

Thanks!

Q: RE: Spyglass Resources and Parallel Energy Trust. Both of these small oil and gas producers appear to be in receivership, but news of their current status is hard to come by. Do you have any Idea if there is a possibility of any recovery for investors? Spyglass resources has been relisted as SGLRF I believe.

Q: Good morning,

I understand that AMLP.US ETF that tracks the performance of a basket of energy infrastructure - oriented master LPs. Assuming that the oil prices will be up from here in 5 years and given that this etf currently pays out approximately 9% dividend, I would be interested to hear your view regarding the suitability of this etf in a RRSP in terms of downside risk and dividend sustainability. Thank you.

Q: I read with interest your recent article in the Post and was intrigued by the comment that research shows 90% of portfolio returns come from sector allocation - if a person wanted to take advantage of that, in a simple, easy to manage and inexpensive way (ignoring taxes for the moment) what would be your view be on an approach where one's equity component of their portfolio consisted entirely of a number of ETF's with each one of the ETF's focused on a particular sector, with a periodic (say quarterly) rebalancing? What specific ETF's would you suggest for such a portfolio? Thank you.

Q: I bought Painted Pony when it was around $4.50. So I am up on this investment. Is Raging River a more compelling stock for growth? Should I sell PPY and buy RRX. Should I hold long term on PPY? Or should I sell and go inot an entirely different energy stock? I view myself as a long term investor and want to hold stock for 5 to 10 years and hopefully watch them grow.
