Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Good morning
As retirees, and still with a longer-term horizon, my wife and I own (and like) Suncor (integrated), Prairie Sky (no debt) and Peyto (low cost producer) for minimal risk; second, dividend income, and third, capital growth. Oil & Gas is 4% of our diversified portfolio. We plan to keep Suncor. I am considering Freehold Royalty, Tourmaline, and Ensign Energy Services as possible replacements for PSK and PEY.
Q1: Do you feel the stock price declines in the Canadian oil and gas sector represent investor capitulation?
Q2: I would appreciate your comments on the 3 stocks being considered. Would any of TOU, FRU or ESI better meet our investment objectives, compared to our current holdings, PSK and PEY?
Thank you for your advice on this.
Edward

Q: I have been watching ESI as part of my speculative portfolio. The ~8% div yield is currently unsustainable based on current earnings yet their acquisition of Trinidad at 40% of its value is somewhat compelling for future appreciation. They have indicated their plan to reduce debt and clean their financial statements yet, while the sector is negative, your opinion would be appreciated. Thank you!

Q: Many analysts are predicting a turnaround in the oil services industry. The stocks seem to be anticipating this. You have recommended CEU. Has it moved to high for an investment at this time? Also, what do you think of ESI? It has an attractive dividend.

Q: Hello, I just joined and was hoping to find a report on ESI. As a dividend investor, ESI looks very attractive given it's current yield and valuation. More important, it's record of growing dividends for 19 consecutive years is hard to ignore. Yet, I hesitate. It's not just the lack of growth and the recent misses, the FCF looks problematic. Can I have your opinion? Thanks
