Q: i bought CVE last year at $20/share, mainly because the yield had risen to above 5% due to the declining share price. At the time it looked like they could cover the dividend and the plan was to hold for the long term and collect the dividend. But given that they raised equity earlier this year and are looking at asset sales would you consider the dividend at risk based on current cash flows? I'm concerned that if they cut the dividend the share price will plummet. Thanks

Q: Most of the oil/gas trusts that converted to corporations continued to pay relatively high dividends. Now that many have had to reduce their dividends, what might happen when (if?)oil prices start going back up - will they increase their dividends accordingly, or be content to stand pat with dividend levels that allow them greater flexibility and are more in line with other industries? I realize that this is mostly a guess on your part, but would be interested in your comments. The 2 companies in which I am looking at are Vermillion and Bonterra.
Thank-you

Q: Hi 5i team,

What are your thoughts on continuing to hold badger? It has had a bit of stock momentum over the past month, but has still been affected by the gloom in the energy sector. Would you recommend continuing to hold badger for the long term or do you think it would be better to switch to a company exposed to an industry more in favour from your growth portfolio? I already own a good portion of your balanced and growth portfolio so I would likely top up my positions or purchase kinaxis as it currently has stock momentum. My position in badger is around 3 percent.

Thanks as always,
Jon
