Q: Hello 5i, I read an article in the Edmonton Journal Aug 17/22 by Chris Varcoe titled Alberta Left out as Natural Gas Demand soars. In my opinion Canada has mainly one customer for its oil which is the US which since oil was discovered in Canada have been buying Canadian oil for half price of the world market price per barrel. Could you explain what is the discrepancy of what US companies get for there natural gas as well as world price and what Canadian natural Gas producers receive and why.

Q: Hi 5i,

I have small positions in each of these three travel businesses. I was thinking of selling one to add to the other two, in an effort to be more efficient in my holdings. Would this be a good idea or would the diversification of holding all three be worthwhile?

If selling one, which would be your choice and why? I know you have recommended BKNG in the past but I sometimes wonder whether the other two have a stronger moat?

Thank you, Doris

Q: I run 2 balanced portfolios, one for my wife and one for myself. Both are in our TFSAs and each portfolio contain 24 stocks. My question is would it be more advantageous to have the same stocks in each portfolio or different stocks in each to have more diversification. Can being too diversified work against you in certain cases. Thank you very much for your much appreciated advice.
