Q: Hi,
Could you expand on your answer regarding your thoughts on the oil commodity backdrop. Charts are suggesting longer term high US $, a long US Stock cycle & a long down period for commodities. Meaning stocks like SGY, even though good on fundimentals might suffer from being in an "out of favor" sector & therefor have little upside. So your insight into how long you thing oil might be on a down cycle.
Q: Planning on taking a position in one of these stocks. I like both because of the management and prospects. Which would be your preference? Many thanks, Nancy
Q: Hello 5i team, can you explain the recent weakness in Delphi Energy DEE? The stock was down 6% yesterday and has fallen over 25% from recent levels, well out of line with natural gas prices. Should I put on a stop loss? Many thanks, Keith
Q: Hello Peter and Team,
Do you think now is a good time to pick up some DTX (Dethree).
It has solid fundamentals and insiders have been buying a ton of shares recently. The share price today is absolutely ridiculous trading below $8.
Q: I have bought this stock on two different occasions and have held for about a year. It hasn't done a thing. I am about to unload it and replace it with Vermilion VET. It has a decent dividend and has appreciated 8% YTD. Am I missing something in TOU? And what is your opinion of VET?
Q: I have a small speculative holding of 49 North Resource (FNR) and received a rights offering and would like to have your thoughts on whether or not I should exercise the right. (4 rights plus $.30 required to subscribe to 1 unit)
Thank you...
Q: I continue to be concerned about SGY because of the commodity price action in the background. I inquired late aug about same & you were strong on holding thru any correction. However I am hearing more talk of a long term US $ bull mkt which in the past has driven non commodity stock pricing upward & driven commodity pricing downward. Do you also now feel that we have entered a secular bear for commodity pricing & would that not push oil stocks like this out of favor regardless of dividend? Dividend is nice but 9%/yr pales with a 25% drop in a month.
Thx,
Q: I currently own CS as my only Mining stock - at current share prices, would you recommend selling CS and buying FM or just keeping CS for the time being and wait for a rebound?
Q: Hello Peter and the 5I team
To me VNR looks like a reasonable buy at this time. I look at the PE ratio( 15.3), PB ratio (1.0), low debt metrics, excellent dividend yield (6.3%) with a 96% pay out ratio. Are these metrics a good way to value the company? Is there other factors that I should take into account when it comes to this stock or with other utility companies? What are other companies in this sector do you like?
