Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Dear Peter and Ryan.
Thank you for your help through the volatile market. Though the Economy is not back yet, we may be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel soon. I checked a few stocks. Airlines and Energy have been down a lot. I want to take advantage of the market and consider allocating 10% of my RRSP to these companies (AC, UAL, EXPE, CVX and SU). I like to think about 2-3 years or longer. Currently I don't own any airlines. I own TOU only for oil industry.

Thank you,
Yiwen

Q: Compelling argument in the financial post recently on oils rebound - ‘how the corona virus is setting the stage for the next oil boom’. Do you buy into this thesis? If so what companies would you look at with most upside and safety (Eg will be around to see it through)

Q: SU or CNQ: looking at all metrics, which one would you buy for the long-term? I realize that the oil price is the biggest factor: supply issue (too much) and a demand issue due to COVID-19; however, when the data for COVID-19 starts looking positive demand should start to increase - 1/2 of the equation. I realize dividends are dependent on the price of oil; but, perhaps one co. is more isolated in this regard? I am a long-term investor - NOT a trader, so, can wait. Also, a dividend cut may be a good thing for now?

Q: Like everyone else I have been hammered in the oil sector.
Would it be prudent to sell off GEI, IPL, and KEY, take the capital loss and funnel all the remaining funds into a company like SU, which do doubt will survive this crisis and now with a nice dividend yield?
Has SU ever cut their dividend and how safe do you think it is even in this environment?

Is their another company you might prefer over SU, (other then ENB, RNW & BEP.UN) which I have as well?
Would you sell all of the three above or hold on to one of them maybe?
Deduct points as you deem appropriate.
Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hi team,

Are energy shares a good long-term investment any more or should they simply be looked at as a trade? Given the lack of pipelines in Canada and the fact that the World is shifting away from oil and gas at higher prices, do energy stocks really have a long term potential? Or should we buy them on weakness and sell them into strength. Hard to grow the business and revenues, apart from acquisitions, when revenues are dependent on a commodity that is at the whim of certain government action or inaction.

Thanks,
Jason
