Q: I have a question about name changes. In your experience if/when a Company changes its name does this help or hurt. My question is specifically about Veran (Crescent Point Energy). Now I have held this Company stock and options for a long time and made lots of money on it. Also lost some along the way. They have been slowly changing their operations to be very positive ie: no more Saxberg and serial aquisitions. Now they have decided to change the name and the stock has not responded very well. I grew up on a farm and found you may dress up a pig but it is still an oinker after the dress-up. Thanks Gordo

Q: In an earlier question you mentioned that although you disliked giving targets for entry points, you suggested $37 for BEP. That's $10. below its current price: does this mean that you expect further drops? My concern is only that, because of my age, time in the market is limited, so waiting for recovery is less feasible than it was when I was younger.

Q: I always like following the Form 13F SEC disclosures in the USA made by major investors. One of the guys I follow is Stanley Druckenmiller (Duquesne Family Office). I note that he has recently taken a new position in Kinder Morgan. Can I have your thoughts on this name for a new buy? Thank you,

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have received a offer from SES to purchase shares between $11.40 and $13. The position I have is part of a diversified portfolio in my TFSA and I am up 90% at current prices and have really enjoyed the growing dividend. I am tempted to sell 1/3 of my position at the higher range of the offer to take some money off the table.

What are your current thoughts on SES as a company, its assets and market position?

What do you think of the offer given the current market price and this point in the cycle?

Thanks for the great service!

Colin

Q: I had asked a question about the 'equalization dividend' for the Enerplus deal. I subsequently spoke with ERF investor services and was informed that the Mar 19 dividend from Chord is not included in the calculation, so the equalization will only be based on the June 5th dividend. The equalization amount will about .233USD and will only be paid to shareholders of record on the date that the deal closes, likely May 31.

Q: The ERF news release on Feb 21 included this note "It is anticipated that the quarterly dividend payments made by Enerplus until closing of the transaction will be equalized to those made by Chord, after giving effect to the exchange ratio, through an additional Enerplus dividend declared shortly prior to the closing." Chord's dividend payment on Mar 19th was $3.25US and the next payment on June 5th will be $2.94US. Using the share exchange ratio in the deal of .10125, should I be expecting a special dividend from ERF of about $0.50US ? ((3.25+2.94)*.10125-.065-.065)
