Q: Hi team

Curious about falcon oil, It did well a short while ago, but has been trailing down. Do you see any upside. I have a small position which I acquired many years ago. Wondering if I should stay or cut my losses. Thanks

Q: I am interested in buying GWO but wonder if I should be buying PWF instead? PWF has a holding company discount of over 15% which seems to imply that I am getting IGM “for free”. But then there is a discount on POW too and I don’t understand the two-level holding company structure -can you explain this? Why does POW not issue POW shares to PWF holders to eliminate one of the levels? Out of GWO, PWF and POW, which one would you buy?

Q: If a company decides to adopt Blockchain where would you look to track the effects? For example would the company look to increase their revenues, or lower costs? Or is the benefit simply one of efficiency in record keeping? How would a company like Kodak be enriched?

Q: Equitable Group bounced back from last summer when the Home Capital debacle hit to reach its previous high of $72 on January 2nd. Since then, it has declined to just above $66 today - a decline of almost 9%. I see no reason why. Can you provide any insight?

Q: An interesting observation and query. In response to an earlier question you said that you preferred VET to WCP. And now you have said that you would prefer an investment in RRX over WCP. It begs the question why WCP is in your portfolio and not one of the other energy companies?

Q: Hi Peter,

SIS has grown to about 9% of my portfolio from an initial 6% and wondering if you think there's any more upside? My full positions are 5-7% so wondering if I should continue to hold or trim my position?

On the other hand GUD is down 20% and wondering if I should add more here or start a new position in CLS (I'm low on tech) if I do trim SIS. All of these are/will be in my TFSA.

Also, wondering about ECN, what will it take for it to break out above $4? It seems to be stuck below $4 for a long time now. I hold this in my RRSP.

Thanks for your advice as always.
