Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan, I know it's speculating and you can't read the future but do you see further upside on these two and if so how much more and is there a point when you would sell. Thanks, Nick

Q: If you had to pick one to sell, and one to continue holding between CNQ and SU, which one do you keep?

Q: Hello 5i,

We are considering moving our ENB position into two other stocks, CNQ and EPD.
1. Is CNQ considered to be a safer haven than ENB at this time with higher 3-year upside?
2. Would you recommend EPD over ENB now and for the next 3-years?

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

Q: I am underweight the energy sector. I was planning to but TOU or CNQ for 5 year hold. Which would you recommend? Do you think investing in energy sector at this time is a good idea especially if one is underweight that sector?

Q: Good Morning 5i,
I would appreciate knowing your outlook for Gibson Energy (GEI). In the past couple of months there was an article in the Globe & Mail that there could be more to come on the M&A front. It listed several companies that could be up for sale and GEI was one. The article said that GEI management was looking out to improve shareholder value and company sale (not just assets) wasn't out of the question. Since then GEI has become the first energy company in North America to link it's credit facility to meeting sustainability objectives. The stock has not performed as well as other energy stocks during this time and I have continued to hold it for the potential takeover aspect. Do you consider a take over is possible and if so, what companies do you consider would be potential candidates to takeover GEI? Thanks

Q: Hi, please comment on latest quarterly results.
Thanks,
Dan

Q: Is it safe to assume that it takes ~ a week to update the new information from the company? Latest earnring report from CNQ is not posted yet.

Q: I own Suncor ,and am under water about 20%. I’m thinking of swapping it out for CNQ ? Which company has more upside potential for a 2 to 4 year horizon?
Thanks,
Philip

Q: Your view on this company as an addition to a high dividend portfolio would be appreciated. FCF in the next year or two looks to be substantial.
Thanks

Q: Assuming $80.00 +- oil which of the above might do best. please add any stock you think would fit the theme.
thanks
Yossi

Q: I’ve been out of energy stocks for a few years. Do you think it’s a good time to add some exposure (aside from general diversification). Any favourite names? I was considering CNQ or TOU but open to other suggestions. Do you feel metals or energy will be stronger here?

Thanks

Q: I own these 2 majors and I'm up 15-20% on them so far. My question is that many people are now talking about value stocks and that energy and financials are good plays. It seems like a lot of people believe energy might be entering a multi year bull market (Eric Nutall!). I've traded these over the last few years since they always seem to pop and then go back down with political climate or economic sensitivity. How do you know if this time is different? I don't want to sell too early, but I don't think $100 oil is coming back.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hello 5i teams,
I have CNQ stock about 40% of my portfolio so I want diversified my portfolio by selling CNQ, which stocks do you suggest to buy for 3 to 5 years holdings.
Thx

Q: Hi Guys Happy new year
between these 2 companies which one would you think will have better growth in the next couple of years.

Q: Hi Peter & 5i team,
I have topped up my TFSA contribution limit and now have a considerable amount of cash to deploy. Currently I have the above mentioned names and am looking for a good dividend growing stock addition. In your opinion, what would be your top three suggestions.
Thank you for your opinions in the past and present.

Q: top 2 choices, 1-2 or possibly 3 year term, and why? Thanks

Q: Can you please suggest best ideas to replace XOM ie large cap dividend paying oil. Can be Canadian or US. Looking for similar or a little more beta.

Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan, I'm a 63 year old conservative investor and I've held CNQ from 2010 where I bought it at $34.00 where it's been a roller coaster since then and as you know it dropped to about $12,00 in March. I've held it for the dividend and since it's back to where I first bought it in my unregistered account I was thinking of selling it and transferring it to my TFSA and not taking any loss. How much upside do you see it having from here and do you think it's still worth holding or would you invest the money elsewhere, if so what is a good replacement for it. Thanks as always for your insight and the great service we get from you guys. Nick

Q: I have no oil/gas stocks and would like to add one. Which of these (or other) would you recommend and please indicate why. For a 67 year old with an otherwise balanced portfolio. Thanks again for your experience and sound advise.

Q: Hi Guys,

I'm starting to get interested in the energy sector for more of a long term hold. The sector has been crushed but I don't believe the world is going to abandon oil and gas any time soon. Looking for a producer that pays a dividend, so I can get a return while I wait. What companies would you guys suggest?
