Investment Q&A

Q: What are your current favorite small cap, and mid cap energy names ? The PSCE ETF covers a good selection of US names. Is there a similar TSX listed ETF ?
Thank you.

Q: Would it be prudent to reduce energy exposure at this time? My wives RRIF account holds ARX, TOU, & FRU they represent 21.8% of the portfolio. My RRIF account holds ARX, TOU, HWX, PPL, OBE, & PD they represent 33.3 % of the portfolio, PPL alone is 15% of the total portfolio. I know I should reduce this exposure what would you suggest?

Q: It’s seems that the stock is enjoying its marked rise at this time , Is it due to possible merge or a buy from other company? It’s apparently much above its book value and by itself its future growth will not be marked. Is it indeed overvalued and could be sold ? The dividend is good so it could be kept as a dividend payer as one wait for buyout or a merger. What is your opinion on thei stock at this time ?
Thank you ,
Miroslaw

Q: Hello,
I own the following O&G producers and this is about 12.5% of the portfolio.
CNQ 2%, Tour 2%, Meg 2%, TVE 2.5%, WCP 1.5%, HWX 1%, Ath 1.5%
I want to raise cash and would probably sell about half.

My view point is from a conservative, retired senior, but looking through next 2-5 years with these. I think the best ones to keep are CNQ, Tourmaline, Tamarack Valley and Meg - maybe sell off TVE if good gains over next year or two.
Would like your opinion on what to sell/hold.
Do you agree or perhaps would you reduce all evenly? (I prefer to manage at a few less stocks.)

Would you exchange any stock or have other other recommendations?

Thank you very much

Q: Greetings. I'm considering some fall cleaning and would value your opinion on each of these (currently underwater) listed stocks. Hold or toss over the side and go trolling for more profitable opportunities? Thanks for your response.

Q: Notwithstanding the capital gains tax implications, would you kindly rank the above GAS and OIL stocks in order of PREFERENCE and SECTOR (Gas stocks and Oil stocks) to continue holding for the long term and to help me decide on which stock to sell in order to raise cash for an upcoming major purchase. Thank you.

Q: I thought I sent you a question about HWX a few days ago, but I've received no reply. So, I'll try again

How is it possible (or fair) that HWX is having a private placement at 22 cents per share, when the stock is over $^. Isn't that very dilutive for present shareholders? See part of NR below

Q: Hello,

Q: Hi 5i.
I need to sell Headwater Exploration short term. Would like to continue to hold. What would you recommend as a proxy?
Thank you.

Q: Good morning,

I currently own a number of different energy stocks of which most are in the OIL sector. In this current investment environment, the Gas sector seems to offer a better risk reward ratio and I would like to better balance my Oil/Gas stock split.

Question 1. Do you agree that Natural Gas stocks currently offer a better potential return than OIL stocks over the next few years?

Question 2. If so, which of the these OIL stocks would you replace with Natural Gas stocks?

Question 3. Which Natural Gas stocks are currently your best ideas?

Thank you for your sage advice.

Q: hi folks, opinion on Q1 results for Headwater Energy hwx/t....thx for your great Service, jb

Q: Hi team,
I am currently treading water in TVE. I understand that HWX is also a Clearwater producer. In comparing the two, HWX has more production, much higher ROE, lower debt, higher margin, lower PE and higher dividend. Would you sell TVE and buy HWX?

Q: your view on hwx news, recent target drop on tve, and comment on bte please
consider this 3 questions.
thank you

Q: hi folks, opinion on Q results & guidance for Headwater Energy HWX/T....look pretty good..Desjardins has a "Top pick in small cap space"...Buy/Hold/Sell....thanks, jb

Q: Your opinion on headwater?? I also own Supremex that I am up nicely and could move that or move on from AQN.
Thx

Q: I currently own each of these oil & gas industry stocks. Are they well positioned for any potential consolidation/takeover activity that is rumored to occur as a followup from the XOM Pioneer story? Which firms are best positioned for takeover/merger/consolidation?

Q: Do you know the date that SDE will pay out the cash dividend? Please rank the new SDE, HWX and TVE as companies to reinvest the dividend?

Q: Thoughts on switching out of Gear and into Headwater and how do their metrics compare? I also hold Tamarack.

Q: Inevitably, when someone asks about the best NG companies in Canada, TOU and ARX are normally in the mix. So setting those two aside, I would appreciate your opinion on three other stocks in that sector that don't receive nearly as much attention. The stocks in question are Headwater Exploration, Spartan Delta and Pine Cliff Energy.

Thanks as always

Q: Good morning 5i team!

May I please get your thoughts on ERF. I've held it for a while and have done well. I'm concidering rotating out of this name and shifting to either WCP, HWX or TVE all of which have better dividends and could run harder if oil catches a bid (as many oil bulls are expecting). Do you prefer any of these name over the others....or, stay the course. Thoughts?

Thanks

Dave
