Q: Hello Peter,

Even if you have consistently maintained not to buy a stock in the hope of a takeover; I am tempted to dabble in the Canadian energy sector. The three mentioned here were your suggestions as a response to a query yesterday. I am considering all of them
My question-- would you not invest in anyone of the lot with the assumption that they are not takeover target?
Regards.

Q: Kel is up 20% in the past few trading sessions and HME is up 16%. I like them both but feel they have really had hyperbolic moves lately.

If you were going to open positions in these 2 energy plays would you wait or buy at current market.

If wait, at what price?

Q: Hello 5i,
In light of current status with oil and gas markets and what now most likely will be prolonged high prices, could you suggest two or three junior or mid cap O&G producers that might currently have greater upside opportunity than the larger producers.
Thank you so much for so many years of very sage advise.

Q: The way things look right now, it is difficult to see how energy and materials (mining) won’t play a major role in keeping Canada afloat. It seems we have things the world needs/wants if we can get over our distaste for being prosperous. I’m wondering if you can suggest some “pick and shovel” plays in the space generally?

Q: Hi 5i, Want to raise some cash in TFSA.
I have shares in KEL : I'm up 33% from purchase, KEL is down approx 6% this year, KEL does not pay a Div.
I have shares in PHX : Up 11% from purchase, PHX is down approx 19% this year, PHX pays a 10.6% Div.
Share values are < $5k each.
Given the outlook for Energy sector for the next year, would you recommend selling 1, or other, or both.
Thanks for your usual great support.

Q: What effect do you think Trump's election and energy policies (Drill, Baby, Drill) will have on Canada's energy industry, both on the big upstream companies such as CNQ and Suncor and the smaller exploration companies such as Kelt and Tamarack.
Read Answer Asked by Chuck on November 07, 2024
Q: When I look at Kelt on the 5i website it says insiders are exercising options at 2.76. I am assuming these options were issued in the past. I am also assuming that the insiders are exercising the options for stock and are using their own money. DO options have an expiry date ?Are my assumptions correct ?

Thx
