Q: Good day - What are your best recommended/favorite oil and gas producers at this time? With and without dividend. Is a dividend paying producer something you would consider?

Q: I feel both Oil & Gas are going to make a modest comeback over the next 6 months and would like to increase my exposure. I currently hold full positions in VET, PEY and ENB and collectively they represent about 10% of my equity holdings and equities represent about 60% of my total portfolio. Do you think it is OK to add to this space and if so What would you suggest I add to diversify this group?

Q: May I have your comments on Parex Resources Q2 release.
My reading is positive on all metrics, but I have no idea what estimates were or street expectations. A 6% drop on the release seems overdone? Am I missing something?
I have a small (1%), recent position, in my TFSA, so 6% isn't overly worrying, but does it illustrate growing unease among investors?

Q: The data I have is showing that Frontera Energy(FEC)has a much higher net margin than PXT, RRX and ERF.(does this mean that it has a better cash flow?) How do you rank these companies in term of buy, hold or sell and best to worst?

Thanks.

Thanks

Q: Hello:
RE: XLE Energy Select Sector SPDR (ETF)
(This ETF does not appear in your dropdown menu).

With the price of oil dropping today to the $49 level,
my position in XLE is down 10 % since I purchased mid Nov 2016.
I also hold SPE & PXT in my TFSA; my total Energy exposure is just over 4.5% of my total holdings.
What are your thoughts on XLE with regard to having it as a core holding in the energy space ? Would you recommend a Canadian energy ETF instead (i.e. ZEO) ?
My risk tolerance is medium to high, am looking for growth.
I purchased this ETF after Nov 8th and researched the "Trump" factor.
Appreciate your input ... thanks, Steve.

Q: I bought both companies at the same time to balance oil investments. Meanwhile, PXT is up 14% and WCP lost 2%. Assuming that oil stocks move with oil prices why would there be such a diversion?
As always, thank you Team!
