Investment Q&A

Q: From what I can gather, the Oil Supply/Demand Gap is supposed to come in line sometime late Q2 or sometime in Q3. At these levels RRX looks very attractive. The have a strong balance sheet with little debt.

Obviously pullbacks are hard to predict. That being said, do you think its reasonable that we'll observe sub $50 prices with news today of a record amount of speculative long positions in Oil?

There is a lot of concern whether a border tax (if implemented) would either exempt Canadian Energy companies.

Q: Hello Peter,
I am currently underweight commodities and overweight technology. What would you think of selling DSG and ENGH and buying TOG and RRX? Do you think whatever incremental return expected by this change would justify the increase in volatility and risk?
Also, what are the approx wait times in terms of weeks for a portfolio review?
Regards.

Q: I would like to sell my positions in these (IPL, PPL) to buy mid cap oil stock to try to get a bit more growth as this is al in my TSFA. I am thinking about companies such as TOG.T CJ. PD. and companies that have been hit a little harder then the bigger oil players thanks.

Q: Hello 5i.
Pushed send on this question Jan 30. Resending.

Hello 5i
I have a couple oil investments(PSK/CPG) and have been using pipelines for Energy sector exposure.

As I have been watching the chatter on 5i about energy growth stocks and with today's pull back, I have been looking to enter positions of producers....possible VII(significant asset in the ground), TOU(after purchase from Shell), RRX(a 5i focus stock).

Would you please comment on preference from above or other from universe - related to search for growth from today's price , political situation and oil/gas price environment?

Peters and Co indicate expectation for $40 oil price going into summer. How would you balance this information in purchases today?

Thanks
Dave

Q: It looks like you prefer RRX to SGY. For an owner of SGY not looking to change sector weightings would you recommend selling SGY and buying RRX?
Thanks.

Q: I am underweight energy and presently have CNQ, SU, and Total energy services. Would you add to energy at this time and if so what companies. Thanks

Q: Hi folks,bought into rrx/t last week at 9.60,watched it run to over $10 but today watched it break below $9. I know oil has been volatile but is everything still ok with company that you know of??, stock has sold off more % than others in the sector, thanks as always, jb

Q: Which of these two energy stocks do you prefer? Please compare and explain why. Kelt seems to have better momentum lately. Thanks.

Q: Good afternoon,
I hold a combination of stocks from your BE and Growth portfolio. To date I have not purchased either of your energy picks. At current prices both have had a pull back. Which one do you recommend purchasing at this time? I plan to hold long term and dividend is not needed.
Thank you,
Kerri

Q: SGY has dramatically outperformed RRX over past 6 & 12 months.
Thinking of switching to RRX. Have you heard rumors of takeover of SGY?
That possibility holds me back.

Q: would you be a buyer of these co.s or do you see any problems.

thanks donald.

Q: would you consider all of these stocks energy and oil related? How much of total weight would you give in this sector at this time? Would you consider 13% total too high in this sector?

Thanks
D

Q: Hi 5i: I want to add to my small holdings of mid-cap oil stocks when the OPEC bounce subsides. I have looked at WCP and RRX. How would you rate these - I wish to focus on light oil producers? Do you have any other suggestions - I am interested in growth not dividends? Many thanks.

Q: Do you think I would be wise to switch from CPX to RRX?
Jim

Q: Hi 5i team. I would appreciate your thoughts on Raging River's recent aquisition. Thanks a lot.
Ed

Q: Any thoughts on Raging River Exploration. It's been on a bit of a down trend recently and I was wondering if it might be an entry point or if there is something up at the company.

As always thank you for your thoughts and analysis.

Q: Hi all - I need an energy company to add to my portfolio. I have held off buying a name in the oil/gas/pipeline sector as I've been expecting the cycle to take a number of years for the demand and supply sides to lose inertia and start moving in the opposite directions. I don't think we're there yet (US crude draw-down reports are suspiciously counter to other indicators out there), but I'm thinking the down-side risk is for companies that will survive is pretty low at least.

Which two companies would you recommend at this time?

Thx very much.
