Q: Hello Peter, a 'Market Call' guest whom I've learned to listen to closely over many years (you are the other; hence my 5i membership) recommended Imperial Oil in that sector, largely because he perceived its downside risk to be minimal due to its current price relative to book value. I have a large position in CNQ and a smaller one in Tourmaline. But I'd like to add to my O&G holdings with a stock with a 'lowish' downside. Would you concur with the IMO recommendation for this purpose, or would you suggest I just add to the CNQ and/or Tourmaline. Thank you!

What exactly causes a Bubble? I have read and heard so many different things, so I was wondering what your thoughts were.

Q: Could I have your comments on Athabasca Oil's press release late yesterday with their Operational Update and 2020 budget. What is the life of their reserves? I am correct in interpreting from the release that for every US$5 increase in WTI above US$45 WTI (considering a $17.50 WCS differential) the company stands to benefit CDN$70 million? At $0.53 this morning is this company worth taking a risk. Thanks

Q: What do you think about Inter Rent? It recently posted a very good quarter "Operating revenues for the quarter increased by $3.8 million, or 12.4%, over Q2 2018."

Q: You answered a question on the disposition price for BYD.UN conversion to BYD saying that the company has announced the conversion price and that the last trading price for BYD,UN was $202. I own some BYD.un in a TD Direct account and TD indicates that the price on disposition is $215.77 and that is the ACB on new BYD shares. I cannot find a reference to disposition/conversion price on any releases or on the BYD website.. Would you have a reference for the correct price?
Thanks
