Q: Two part question here. I am trying to add PEG ratio to my thinking about stocks. It seems like a useful metric that combines growth with value. But I don't see it listed frequently enough for Canadian equities. I presume you work with trailing P/E and divide it by growth rather than forward P/E. Is that correct? I also realize I should be looking out for oddities in trailing P/E that shift it one way or another. Anything else I should be looking for? Second, I look at GOOG and it reads well at both a very reasonable forward P/E and PEG under 1. Are there other stocks you see with that combination? Thank-you.

Q: I remember hearing that CNQ breaks even at $50 dollar oil. Question is, is this true, and does that include dividends. Also, I would like to know about CVE, Whitecap. I am wondering about US oil companies in the basins of Texas area and Montana area. What oil price do they need to keep operating (cost of operations).
Thank You again for your excellent services.

Earl

Q: Can I have your thoughts on th quarterly results reported this morning? I found the news release quite encouraging, despite a languishing stock price. The results seemed pretty good to me, they are buying back shares, they report terrific demand for their product, and they say the tarif chaos gives them more and better opportunities to expand. So why is the stock price languishing??? or am I missing something

Q: Hi 5i
I picked up some UBER @ ~69 in January. Now it is ~85 and earnings out next week. Normally I keep stocks 3 years or longer, but with 24% gain I'm considering taking profit. How does it usually react post earnings? With King Chump, you just never know when he will say or do something that spooks investors (perhaps firing Powell so he is the fall guy that gets blamed for the recession King Trump brought on with his tariff fiasco).
Thanks, Greg

Q: Hello Team,

I'm reviewing 2 of my holdings.

WGX - Do you still like this name as a long term gold hold or are there any other companies you would swap with. I hold LUCA as my only other gold stock.

ATH - Same question, do you still like this stock or any other names you would switch with. I hold CJ as my only other resource stock.

I'm okay with high risk high reward stocks.

Thanks
