Investment Q&A

Q: Nat Gas:
I hold ~1% each of ARX and TOU. Also, ~5% XOM, which is also a major gas producer.
I don't have much confidence in this liberal gov't's promises of gas development. Would you recommend a US gas producer, and if so, which one?
Thanks
Jerry

Q: Hi 5i team.

I'm currently overweight Suncor, have a full position in Whitecap and less roughly 2/3 position in Freehold Royalties. I'm thinking of lightening up on Suncor and putting the dollars into a USA producers. Would you please list your top three USA domiciled oil and/or gas producers, why you prefer them, whether you would trade Suncor for any of them?

Thanks
Peter

Q: I did believe that " only USA located" energy (oil+gaz) growth stocks were an interesting investment considering certain isolationist tendencies coming in 2025, quite positive US economic performance, and other factors in the unstable world market. I did invest in these 2 Cies this week at a very low point ; after only 3 days, the losses are already 5% and 7% respectively, every single day reaching the lowest value of the year for DVN..Is it a situation of "falling knives" ,or an excessive correction, hold or sell as an impression according to the risk ? thanks for some light in this situation !

Q: Would now be a good time to invest in Natural Gas stocks? My thinking is that the commodity price is low, but demand should increase with increasing energy demands and the price in Canada should increase with the LNG terminal completing in 2025? Could you please support or crush my simple ideas. Thank you. Also, could you please offer some related stock or ETF ideas - either Canadian or American. Many thanks.

Q: It appears that Devon Energy has expressed an interest in purchasing ERF. Could you look at potential synergies for this deal and provide any additional views (eg. any other potential suitors?).

Many thanks.

Q: Given the recent softening in the US energy market what are your thoughts on acquiring some producers with attractive dividend yields? For example, DVN or CTRA. Also, what are your thoughts on oil-heavy vs gas-oriented producers? Thanks.

Which of the companies listed below would you consider holding over a five to ten period? Please provide the order of selection. Or would you recommend buying an ETF for this sector as a better choice from a risk-return perspective? If so, what would be your ETF best pick(s) be?

SU

ENB
XOM
DVN
COP

Q: Good day, what are your thoughts on the prospects for natural gas and what are your favourite US and CDN ways to play it?

Q: do you have an Ex divedend date for Devon Energy?

Q: Now that energy stocks are going out of favour, it's time to start looking at the what might be attractive from a valuation point. I'm looking for a US energy company (not XOM or CVX): what are your thoughts on DVN and PXD? Is one preferable or do you have another suggestion? Thanks.

Q: I am thinking of starting a position in an energy company. names that have my attention are Devon with its high dividend. Exxon I mentioned on CNBC a lot. An ETF ? Can you make some suggestions. I am Canadian and realize US dividends are taxed at 15 %.

Q: I have been able to top up my TFSA accounts and now find I am sitting on about 40K in USD. I am looking for growth, preferably with a dividend, in a well managed and reliable company, or companies. I'm overweight in Tech & Utilities, OK in Finance, low in Energy, underweight in Industrial. A quick look at the US sectors has given me the feeling that now isn't the time to start with Staples, Health Care or Utilities and that there seems to be caution with respect to Energy. Materials and possibly Industrials, which has puzzled me, as I would think China reopening and the US's infrastructure spending would have helped the last three sectors mentioned. I welcome your thoughts, and any suggestions, as they are usually very insightful!
