Q: You may have received this previously as I was typing it - it seemed to disappear and I hadn't submitted it or finished.
MAC D available with my Scotia Itrade account - what am I looking for high numbers/low numbers, straight lines, crooked lines?
Oil last got this low middle of 2009. ACQ my cost $76.00 - is falling faster than my oil stocks. Will it see $35.00 before it sees $55.00? I read your questions and answers and in the past you have said you have not noticed any negative news about ACQ.
CXI currency - big drop December 8th. Any news?
Hopefully the questions were not too long.
Thank you, Dennis

Q: Which of the two companies would you consider a buy (for the long term) at present?
Q: Good Morning 5i
In this current market, can you give me three oil or gas names that are now attractive to pick up. I want stocks that would rise over a three year period based on premise that current cuts are short-lived or that the companies will do well by acquisition in a downturned market.
I'm looking for a three year hold.
Thanks for all you do!

Q: What do you think about this company at the new lower oil prices. I heard on BNN today that it is one of the companies able to manage paying dividends with lower oil prices alongwith ARX, WCP, PSK etc.
Q: Peter and Team,
Of my invested assets, I currently have 2.5% cash, 5% bonds (CBO ishares ETF), and 92.5% in stocks. The stock portfolio is diversified as I have tried to model after 5i methodology. I do have other cash outside of my current invested assets that amounts to the equivalent of approximately 25% of my invested assets.
I have been trying to increase my allocation to bonds a little bit because I like yield and feel like my allocation to bonds should be higher than it is for risk-management purposes.
My question is two fold:
1. I am 32 and wondering what allocation I should have to bonds?
2. Is there a bond or other yield vehicle that is similar to CBO that is exposed to international companies or companies that get earnings from international sources like Brazil, India, China, etc. I like CBO because it is short (less than 5 years) duration corporates.
My expectation is to trim some huge winners in the stock portfolio soon that will give me approximately 5% more of the portfolio to put into my fixed income allocation.
PS. I'd also consider floating rate stuff or things that reset with LIBOR or things of that nature as well.
Thanks!

Q: Hi Team
I have a small position in Long Run coming out of the Crocotta deal earlier. At these levels (1.47 as I type) is it worth a roll of the dice?? I would think the way the small plays are coming down that they must be trading below break-up in a normal environment?
Thanks Jim

Q: Your opinion on VET.TO I bought it a month ago at $63 in my TFSA and it is now at $45. Should I keep it for 1 year or sell it ?
Q: Another crystal ball question-You talk about wading in slowly to a position. What is your best guess-once a week/two weeks/month etc until what you have to invest is used up?
Q: Could this company be a bit of a sleeper in terms of upside potential once this sector turns around? I know the company has some geopolitical risk, but I believe you have opined that the management team is good, well connected and TGL is now paying almost a 6% dividend.
On the other hand , maybe I am grasping at straws here?
Thank you.

Q: It would appear the speculators are intent on driving oil to 60ish ... I also read US oil ceo's are buying there own company stock like crazy ... So against better judgement in the "falling knife" anayligy is this a buying opportunity of a lifetime and just jump in and hang on for 6 mths ... Sgy at 3.67 seems like a steal now
Q: Hello Peter and Team,
Not sure if you received my previously posted question regarding this, as I had submitted the question, but did not get a confirmation.
In the context of appreciating the growth potential that exists for respective reasons, in the case of both HWO and CEU, which of the two would you see having the best potential to weather through the current storm?I am predominantly interested in the DIV income aspect for both, which in itself may be debateable; however in my opinion, the inevitable overall sector recovery would favour both stocks in a big way, in terms of rebound (GROWTH). In your opinion, which one would benefit more? I thank you in advance for the usual clarity and insight of your response.
