Q: I fortuitously sold Suncor back in June but am now wanting to buy back into oil and gas in my wife's TFSA account. I have badger (bad) and Superior Propane (spb) in another rsp account but this would be more of a direct investment in the beleagured oil and gas industry. I have 10 000 dollars of room to invest with a long term window and was wondering which two of sgy,su,spe,or su you would recommend. Do I go back into the rock solid dependable Suncor or seek more growth with the likes of a Surge or Spartan or ???? Thanks

Q: Greeting, Peter & Co.
I fund and administer RDSPs for three young girls on the autism spectrum. Although I still have a 10 year time horizon I fortunately have no energy exposure in these portfolios. I am considering a small position in High Arctic Energy (HWO) as well as a position in a, yet to be determined, large cap energy company. My rationale is:
HWO has operations in Papua New Guinea (PNG) (74%) and Alberta (26%). Although HWO is not a typical Canadian energy services company its 6 month share price decline is identical to that of Calfrac and slightly less than some of the other Canadian companies in this sector. The PNG operations include services and equipment rentals to natural gas companies that provide natural gas to a new LNG plant that has very long-term supply contracts. The Alberta operations, in my opinion, containing more risk than PNG, are similar to those of other Canadian energy service companies.
HWO had a good Q3 and the balance sheet is solid. There is enough cash on hand to cover the CAPEX for the additional rigs that will be delivered in 2015. The dividend was recently increased by 10% to 5.3% at the current share price of $3.73 leaving a very low payout ratio.
Please advise me of any errors in my numbers or logic and your assessment of HWO.
With great appreciation for your most valuable service.

Q: Looking at the OPEC correction is there an underlying reason why PD took such a severe pounding knowing that their business model is sustainable. I bought in to-day and am quite comfortable with it. I feel sometimes that these big days are more panic driven or is it the shorts trying to kill the small guys.I guess I'm looking for logic in a big marketplace. Thanks Doug
Q: I am not overly exposed in this area. Given todays drop can you recommend one or two stocks that have been oversold?
Q: As a holder of a full position in BTE I have no intentions of jumping of the cliff.
There are two things I would like to see BTE do
1 Declare their dividends by quarter.
2 If they feel the dividend is not sustainable cut it now and get it over with.
I feel BTE is a good company with a top management team and a above average asset base EG cost at Auroa are under $50 and their hedging is as good as any .
Could I have your comments on my assessment.
