Q: I am Following your balanced portfolio. There are significant losses in AEM and WCP and both are a tax loss opportunity. I am considered changing these for KL and PXT? The later two have much better momentum and I think look much better on their technical charts over the last 3-5 years. Both are less than 3% positions each. What is your opinion?

Q: With the problems in Canada getting our oil to markets and large producers selling off assets do you think that an investor would be okay in holding companies like Parex and Vermilion where for the most part they are able to get product to world markets? I currently only hold these 2 companies (along with ENB and IPL) for energy exposure. Would you consider this appropriate or would you add 1 other company to this mix? Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Q: I have held Cardinal Energy for some time and with the dividend, have been about break even with the investment. I like dividends, but I value overall return more than I do yield alone and am wondering if I would be better served by selling CJ and purchasing Parex? In addition to CJ, I also own ENB, PKI, BTE, VET and TOG in this space. If not Parex, is there another energy play you would prefer in this scenerio? Your comments and rationale are most welcome. Thanks for the great service.

Q: I have a 3.77 % position in YGR. Thinking of adding a further 2% in the sector. I’m mainly a dividend investor with some growth. I’ve been looking at VET because of its dividend and exposure outside Canada. Con looks a bit expensive. Canadian oil trades at a large discount so Canadian oil stocks do not benefit as much from rising oil prices.What do you think. Maybe there are better opportunities that you can offer. Your best suggestion would be greatly appreciated. This would be in a cash account.

Q: Hi 5i,
Is there any news, etc. to justify the down moves on these two former market favourites? Has the market lost confidence in the management? Has the Canadian O&G sector gone out of favour as managers move to global co's? I would appreciate any comments/insight on these question & stocks. Thank you.

Q: So Druckenmiller and Soros are putting more bets on oil. I'm not an oil expert, but I do understand the operational leverage that can be created. I also understand there are specific Canadian specific variables to profitability with the pipelines and oil sands etc. If I were to bet with these two, could you give me a list of Canadian oil Companies to bet on? Could you also comment on any possible reason they see oil as attractive?

Much Thanks,

Wayne

Q: Parex has initiated a strategic review for sale of one asset - perhaps the entire business. Yesterday, market original reaction was positive. Today down sharply. You indicated in an earlier comment this was a positive development. I cannot find any new news on this story to warrant the sell off.

What are your thoughts? This company is well managed, no debt and huge cash balance, long life assets, and still reasonably valued. This is not like Spartan or Raging River where consolidation needs to take place. New pro business government in Columbia without pipeline issues. What gives here? If you held this name would sell, hold or buy more?
