Q: Hi Peter,

So I want to pick up 3 oil/gas names and hold until 3 years. I narrowed on these. Can you please pick best 3 of your choice(on risk adjusted total return metric). Also is it prudent to overweight oil and gas to 25% of your portfolio considering there is an upside if I can hold for 3 years?

Ticker - upside delta based on consensus target price
YGR - 28%
BAD - 13%
PPY - 45%
PNE - 42%
TDG - 32%
CNE -32%
RRX -23%
CKE -23%
TOU -19%
PEY -17%
CPG -21%
BNK - 20%
KEL -20%
TVE -15%
BAD -13%
CJ -12%

Q: Hello Peter & Co,
In my TFSA account, I hold BAM.A, DH, DHX, ET, MSI and PLI; I have room for one more holding. Would KBL add some diversification (I do not hold any of these in my RRIF portfolio) or do you have a better suggestion?
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: Hi guys
I am already deep into my second year being a member and I have yet to take any action. I own too many Utilities, stocks make up 40% of my holdings, in your opinion would you sell some of the names or cut back on all (each 4 %to 6%) Financials(Big 5)make up 22% . In all they provide $8000.00 in dividends or half my RIF payments. I find it extremely difficult to let them go. What sector or names of some companies that would provide the dividends that I am looking for. The 3 stocks that I will be buying are BEP.UN,SPB,AW.UN.

Q: What's happening with Magna? The stock has been in steady day-by-day decline for the past 2 weeks and lost 10%. I am surprised that the sale of interiors unit has such effect on the stock... US economy is booming and people are buying new cars, I'd expect MG to do well in such environment...? Is your rating/views of MG still unchanged since your report 2 months ago?

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

Have noticed both are off recently - MRE about 9% in a month & MG about 10% in the past couple of weeks.

Also noticed Auto sales have been reporting a little weaker than expected domestically but while internationally has been a little more promising.

Do you think this is the reason? or is there something else at work here driving these down? I got out of MG shortly after the split but still hold MRE at just under $10. Would you recommend I hold tight or take my profit - it's May so go away?

Thanks for all you do

Gord
