Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: As a member of 5i for approaching a decade, I would like to thank you for the great service that you provide. In reading member questions about a month ago, I stumbled across OKLO and after a bit of research bought a bit and ended up with a very quick double. (thank you to the member who asked a question about it!) After the quick run up, I'm wondering if there is still a long runway for growth with this company?

Also,

Along the same lines, I'm wondering if there are any companies that you are somewhat surprised about that do not receive many questions/attention from members?

Thank you again,
Mike

Q: Greetings:
If I hold shares of the same company in a RRIF account, as well as in 2 separate non registered accounts, and I sell some shares in the non registered account-- do the shares in the RRIF enter into the calculation of the average adjusted cost base for calculation of my capital gain or loss?

Thanks, Ben.

Q: Hello Peter et al:
I have owned Total for several years and it hasn't done much. It is involved in a lot of green initiatives, and more recently has been mentioned in the Adani scandal. Please offer all you can about Total.
I am thinking of selling Total and buying Chord Energy. Please provide as much information as you can about Chord. Holds mostly Enerplus Bakken assets-- Good dividend and maybe a takeover candidate. Would you recommend such a switch? Any other or better USA oil companies you would suggest?

Thanks, Ben.

Q: Hi,

If I invest in a high interest savings ETF like CASH, am I taking risk on my principal? Or am I just taking risk on what interest rate I'm earning?

It seems like there is a bit of a principal risk. Would the price go down if the rates go down?

Thanks,

Q: Hello

Canadian Oil/Gas names and pipelines stocks have retreated this week, possibly, in reaction to news of Trump's proposed tariffs on Canada.

What is the likelihood of these tariffs actually being put in place, with specific reference to Oil and Gas exports to US from Canada ?

If worse happens, would these levies impact Oil/Gas producers/integrated names and pipelines differently ?

Do you consider this week's pullback in these names, as an opportunity to increase exposure to these names and if so, in what order ?

( Noted that 5i bumped SU weight in Bal portfolio, Tuesday )

Thanks
