Q: Hi Guys,
you answered a question of mine the other day asking for suggestions for smaller cap O&G companies that might have greater upside potential than the larger mid and large cap producers.
you came back as follows:
HME, SGY, KEL, BTE, ATH in that order. Would that be your order of preference?
If not, could you rank.
Merci,
Ralph

Q: Good morning and thank you for your amazing insights these days .

Question regarding CNQ and BN. Two completely different sectors, but given the appreciation in CNQ in recent weeks, and the corresponding pressure in BN, I have been slowly taking some CNQ off and moving more into BN. Both are core holdings for me, but your conviction with BN is impressive and I just think it is foolish to not take small gains off the table and move more to BN on the view that this too shall pass - for both companies.

Crazy or a fair approach so long as measured?

Q: Morning 5i,
I have done well with MDA in a TFSA account and would like to sell half and place the proceeds in a name or two (or three) that will benefit from Canada's recent emphasis on defense and both economic and northern sovereignty, as I believe these themes are both real and durable. Do you agree with the thesis and, if so, could you please provide a list of the names you think best placed to benefit from Canada's recent dramatic change in national philosophy?
Thanks 5i,
Peter

Q: Today, Thursday, March 12, Ian Tam in the business section of the globe and Mail recommended 14 Canadian ETFs that offer an mote against global uncertainty. One of the ETFs was WSRI among other ETFs that are low volatility. I wasn’t surprised by the low volatility ETFs, but I was surprised to see WSRI among this list. I looked up WSRI but I couldn’t find anything special to indicate that it has a mote against global uncertainty or is any better than other S&P 500 ETFs such as ZSP. Can you shed some light on this?

Q: On November 10, 2025, you noted that you weren't 'big fans' of the traditional value factor, citing VTV’s heavy weightings in Financials (20%) and Staples (14%) as a reason for your limited interest.
Given the recent spike in global market instability, has your outlook on VTV or the traditional value factor shifted? Would you consider this defensive exposure more attractive in the current climate? :ao/sab::
