Q: Peter and Team:

If Royal Dutch Shell decides to go ahead with its LNG Export terminal in Kitimat, which NG Companies have the most potential upside?

I am woefully down on PEY, and am wondering if I should continue to hold in hope of recovery, or take a 50% plus hit and move on.

Thank you as alway

Phil

Q: Hi 5i research team,
Besides nice weather, do you see any reasons why RET.a is doing better for the past few days? Volume is barely higher than median volume. It looks better technically (ma50 crossing over ma100). If nothing has changed: what would a good technical level to sell (at a small loss fiscally deductible)? Is it worth being patient for the ma50 and/or ma100 to cross over the ma200? The ex-dividend date is coming later this week (5 cents). RET.a remains cheap after accounting for the cash on the balance sheet. Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: Hi team,
I follow a lot of U.S. tech. One that I actually haven’t been following closely at all is GRPN. It came to my attention this morning on a Seeking Alpha alert on GOOG. It seems that GRPN may be putting itself up for sale and several U.S. big tech names may be interested (or may not be). I was a bit surprised to see no questions on it yet on your website so time for me to use another credit.

I am never used GRPN but I believe you can sign up and get discounts off meals, travel and many other services. I think it is a highly competitive space and their stock chart looks like a disaster since its IPO a couple of years ago. I don’t like buying stocks just on takeover speculation but it is a nice kicker if there is merit in the underlying business model, which I suspect is likely not the case here.

Your thoughts?

Thanks again,
dave
