Q: I hold Crescent Point Energy, Inter Pipeline, and Parkland Fuel. With the volatility in oil prices the past few weeks all three are generally moving relative to movements in the oil price. This makes sense for CPG and IPL as they will be directly affected by lower oil prices and related volumes. However I'm not sure why PKI would be so closely tied to oil prices as they are a distributor and presumably lower fuel prices may actually cause an increase in consumption. Do you have any thoughts?
Q: Hello Peter et al:
My question is about senior unsecured notes that Parkland has recently announced. What are the big risks/benefits with this type of product and where do they stand in the pecking order if things go south for any company?
Thank you
Jerry

Hello Peter
I am interested in Parkland Industries PKI. They recently bought Pioneer and I wonder what they actually bought. Did they get freehold ownership of all the gas stations? Do they own all the convenience stores? Are the Convenience stores run by contractors? What do you think of the potential of this aquisition looking ahead a few years? I wonder why Alimentation Couche Tard didn't buy Pioneer as it would seem to fit their model. Did Parkland just get lucky? And finally what do you think of Parkland as a long term investment for both growth and dividend?
Thank you Paul K
Q: A Globeinvestor commentator lists overbought and oversold stocks using a 1 year daily RSI chart. According to that method the TSX index is oversold today at 25.16 If we use a 3 year weekly chart the TSX index is at 45.54. Which chart duration would you use if you wanted the RSI of PKI? Thanks
Q: PKI Parkland Fuels is up 15% today on news of the Pioneer acquisition. Good news but is it too much?
I'm also wondering where the cash portion will come from as I don't see it on their last quarter balance sheet.
Thanks John
Q: Parkland (PKI)
Would you recommend adding to an existing position in light of the Pioneer acquisition, as part of a long term hold strategy for PKI?
Thank you.
Q: Great riding Peter ...Ryan I have to park 30k until next April (Income Tax ) I have both portfolios covered ... PKI and CSH.un both have wonderful drip programs , would these two be a good choice or would you be more comfortable with something from either portfolio? TY for your help.
Q: Would very much appreciate your preference on adding to either ARX or PKI for their respective movement over the next 12 mos.
Thanks & will see you in Toronto next month.
Q: Hi Peter,
Could you please comment on the latest quarterly results from Parkland Fuel, PKI. There appears to be increased trading activity based on the results which seem to be quite good to me. I would appreciate your insight on the report. Thank you, Lynda
Q: hello Peter:
last question about 2 months ago, last report in 2012.
PKI: I have a small postition (about 2% of portfolio) and was looking at deploying some cash. How does this look from a GARP perspective, and how does it look to you from your perspective? The dividend is attractive and I am of the belief that dividends will mean more and more going forward, in a lower growth environment. Do you agree with the latter statement?
