Q: Brent Crude is approaching $70. Where do you think it goes from here? I work in the oil industry and get to purchase my companies shares at a discount. I am tempted to unload them now while the price is high.

Q: I am thinking about buying cineplex (new position), say 3-4% of my portfolio and 5 year time horizon. Would you endorse ? What is the payout ratio and do you consider the dividend safe ? What's their record at missing estimates in the last 2 years ? Do you think their will continue to grow in the next few years ? Would you know if the VIP offering is a success so far and is it becoming important in terms of their revenue ? I was thinking adding the position to my RRSP instead of TFSA ? Thank you for your help !

Q: I would appreciate your comments on the succession plan for BRK. It adds clarity, the two are knowable experienced professionals, they fit the BRK culture, etc. My only downside risk is that they do not have experience within the other companies and capital allocation.

The market seems to approach of it.

Q: Further to the question on GXO: the expenses saved by the recent (Dec 18) dividend cut amount to roughly one-third of dividend costs; I would have thought that this would relieve investor anxiety around dividend sustainability. So I'm wondering if the problem is more likely elsewhere - for example, the WCS/WTI differential, whereby Alberta producers don't get the full benefit of the WTI price recovery. Put another way: are all Canadian pipeline-dependent producers cursed to continue to lose compettitive advantage over time? Such that, regardless of PP ratios or management quality or attractive well decline rates, they will go down while non-dependent producers (VET, PXT, others) go up?
