Q: I am a retired dividend-income conservative investor, with a diversified portfolio consisting of mostly dividend producers (AD, AQN, ALA, BCE, BNS, CGX, CPG, PBH, RY, TRP, WCP, WEF, WSP, ZLB, XIT, Sentry Cdn Inc, Sentry REIT, RBC Cdn Equity Income, TD Health, Insured annuities, Fisgard Capital).

Now that CPG has virtually no dividend, I have a couple of options:

#1 = hold and wait for the eventual rebound in oil and the associated reinstatement of the dividend.

#2 = sell CPG, capture the significant capital loss and invest the proceeds into another energy name. Please provide 3 dividend names, like VET, who you believe the dividend "should" be safe (if there is such a thing as safe).

#3 = sell CPG and reinvest proceeds in non-energy. I currently have roughly 9% of my equity portfolio in energy.

What would you recommend...hold of sell?

Thanks,
Steve

Q: Hello, I just read your updated report on NAL. What percentage of their revenue comes from the oil sector ? Considering they are reducing their workforce, would it be difficult for them to grow again when the market turns ? What oil price do they need to get their business going again (rough estimate if possible) ? thank you, just looking for general comments.

Q: After languishing in the 55 cent range for months, the stock price has recently increased. On March 9th it seems to have gone up to 71 cents, (18% rise) on double the normal trading volume. I can't see any specific news. Any ideas ? Is this a sector rally ?

Q: Hello Peter,
I am trying to decide between crescent point energy or tourmaline oil for 1 to 2 year hold. Also, what is driving the metal stocks like Teck and Hudbay minerals? Do you see this as a sustained rally or do you think it is simply a trade for now. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you.

Q: I own Surge Energy which is down 54% and presently represents 1% of my portfolio. I want to slowly build up this sector by starting to buy again into Surge but I thought I should also add another name and keep the 2 within the overall 5% range of the total. What other name would you recommend. Thanks. Gerry
