Q: I'd be interested to hear your opinion on this comment:

Analyst Vince Valentini is no longer recommending buying shares of the Montreal-based communications services company. He cites concerns about the price war in the Canadian wireless sector, which has also led him to discontinue his recommendations for shares of competitors Rogers and Telus. The expected weak growth in the wireless market and the intensity of competition have prompted the TD expert to lower his expectations for the industry's major players. He noted "very aggressive" offers to attract customers, particularly at the end of March, and observes a race to the bottom with no winners. "This pricing doesn't stimulate better subscriber growth across the sector; on the contrary, it leads to an increase in churn."
Thank you

Q: Hi 5i

Good article recently in G&M about BHP Jansen project in Sask. It looks like they could be producing by 2027. Then I went down the rabbit hole about the MLP Banio project, my guess is it may produce by 2031. So my questions: When might be the optimum time to invest in MLP? Would you anticipate a series of share issuances for funding?
And NTR seems to have some seasonality where it does well Feb-May and then pulls back. I remember the big run up in 2022 and I sold about 1/3 of my shares. I'm getting tempted to take my profit before investors start to worry about Jansen again. Thanks, Greg

Since inception I'm down 34% GLXY, 23% BYD, 45% CSU. thx for your feedback.

Q: I received an email from Paul Colbourne with regards to surge having 6 of the top 10 producing medium heavy oil wells in Canada and 14 year plus inventory in the Sparky.Your thoughts on this please and Surge in general please? Lots of insider selling of late doesn't look great.

Q: I looked up prior inquiries on Kimbell Royalty Partners (KRP) and in your answeres you immediately pointed out that it is a limited partnerrship and therefore has onerous taxation for Canadian investors. I have done some reading on KRP and it appears that KRP has elected to pay corporate taxes and therefore it is NOT considered a MLP, but it is a LP. I know that you 5i guys are not tax experts but could you do a second search on your bloomberg terminal, or other resources that you have, to confirm how a Canadian investor would be taxed if they owned KRP. Other than the tax question what do you think of KRP? The dividend yield is close to 11 per cent, leverage is not that high, and with the increase in oil and gas prices the variable dividend could get a boost (at least while the commodity prices are elevated) and therefore it is of interest to me.

Q: Hello,

CAGE is a new ETF gaining quite a bit of popularity online.

For a long-term investor (20+ years until retirement, LIRA), would you recommend it over XEQT? I am thinking doing a 50/50 split between the two, but would like your advice. Details on it are pretty limited thus far.

Thanks.

Q: With energy stocks such as WCP and CNQ benefiting from high oil prices what is there best strategy for deploying free cashflow?
