Q: Hello 5i Team

I am trying to understand which exchange where the shares of NNRG trade.
According to TMX.com, NNRG trades on two exchanges with volume on September 28 as follows:

NNRG:TCM – 1200 shares
NNRG:OMG – 2800 shares

According to NEO.INC, (Neo Exchange) NNRG traded 147,507 shares on September 28.

Questions are:

1 – What are the TCM, OMG (Omega) and NEO markets?

2 – Why would NNRG trade on these alternate markets instead of listing on the TSX or TSXV?

3 – Which exchange should I be looking at when setting a limit order for NNRG?

4 – Should I be concerned about liquidity in NNRG compared to the underlying securities in the ETF?

5 – Whys does the 5i web page show invalid symbol for NNRG?

Thank you for helping me understand the trading of NNRG.

Q: Do you have any recommendations for a market neutral fund. I have come in to a large percentage of portfolio of cash. I’d like to slowly deploy over the next 12 months. I generally agree with your thoughts on market timing and I don’t want to get too cute, but I’d like to be able to pick my spots while earning a small return.

Q: Hi to all at 5i

Not sure if this question is within the scope of what is asked but, as you well know, the price of natural gas has been soaring lately. That said, natural gas pricing is somewhat confusing as the quoted price in the media appears to be based on the Henry Hub spot price. However, Canadian pricing appears to be based on AECO. The confusing piece is why is AECO pricing so low; in particular, the AECO price decreased by more than 50% to $2.00 on September 20 when the HH price increased to approximately $5.25. If AECO is reported in C$, then the difference would be even more significant.

Thank you very much

Q: I have held these three funds since early 2016 for the stability component (maintain capital and some income) in my portfolio. The annual MER's are .44, .86 and .84. respectively, I have series F in the PMO funds. Extra year end distributions for the PMO funds were nice but they stopped after 2018 year end.

Their total capital growth has been very modest, about 2-4% total over several years.

I am not too comfortable with the higher annual MER's.

Could you comment if I might see significant capital drop if interest rates go up? Also, could you recommend any different holding or stock that I may consider instead of these funds for stability and income?

Thank You.

Q: First time poster here.
With the slight decline recently, which of these following companies do you guys like the most for a growth portfolio for the next 5-10 years? I have 150K to invest (consider this fun spending money and money to play with), and I want to know how much of the 150K would you guys invest in each of these companies separately? ie. 35k in CSU etc
(side note), the report card for TOI said it was valued at 10 billion when it was $60/share. But now it's $131/share and everywhere I read it says 5 billion market cap. Was this a typ-o?). Thanks!
