Q: Paramount Reources POU. The Riddel Family is back doing deals which is fine by me. But I am not sure if I should sell yet or hang on for the stock fo get bid up a bit more. My risk/reward thinking was: If North America has a long and cold winter, nat gas will go up and the price of nat gas shares (for all companies) would go up and I would sell the rip. The down side thesis was: if North america has a mild, short, or worse mild and short winter, nat gas pricing would stay low, POU would still pay a 7 per cent monthly dividend and the share price would bump around in the $25 range. In short, limited downside with potential a good upside. With this deal that has all changed. I think I should sell POU and get back into ARC. So what do you think? If you do the math is $32 too cheap to sell POU? If so, how much more could arbitrage drive up the POU share price? and is switching nat gas horses from POU to arx or another stock a good idea (even though winter again has not arrived even though it is mid-November!!!)

Q: Stop me if you've heard this story this year: I am having a once in a generation year with my portfolio up 50%, a chunk of that driven by Nvidia and its explosive growth. NVDA is now 40% of my portfolio which I acknowledge is insane. But having owned it since 2016 and benefitted massively, I have no intention of selling it, at least not yet. The rest of my portfolio is made up of successful U.S. and Canadian tech, and, on the other end of the scale, conservative, low beta, mostly Canadian dividend payers. They provide ballast to my tech/NVDA risk. Getting to the point: I have $35K to invest and it should be directed to the conservative part of my portfolio. What names would you suggest that tick the following boxes: +4 % well-covered yield, slow but steady share price growth, solid fundamentals, probably Canadian though open to U.S. stocks, irrespective of sector. In the conservative part of my portfolio I already own: all 6 big banks, FTS, ENB, GRT.UN, BAM, BRE, EIF, FC, FFH, PPL, SLF, TFII, TRI.

Apologies for the windy question and thanks!

Q: It seems the economies of Canada and the United States are diverging and not for the better in Canada. This makes it difficult for me to buy Canadian companies as opposed to American. My question is, have any Canadian companies foreseen an advantage to shifting a good part of their operations to the United States to take advantage of the possibilities for making better profits?

Q: A significant portion of NPI's assets are offshore wind turbines which are sitting in salt water. That is an extremely corrosive environment. Surely the company conducts ongoing inspections and maintenance but some of these assets have now been in place for a very long time. Can we have confidence in their integrity?
I look forward to your thoughts.
Ian
