Q: Hello Peter and staff:
I hold shares of Tourmaline in my RRIF account and they are down 47% and I was thinking of selling them and investing the money in shares of Rio Tinto.
Your thoughts on these two companies and the soundness of this switch.
In my question today, I forgot to ask that since common shares of Rio Tinto are being purchased in a RRIF account, is there foreign tax withheld from the dividend that it pays?
Thank again
Thank you.

Q: hello 5i:
I'm looking at a possible upgrade for our portfolio, as almost all energy names are down (and substantially), to date. Please rank the following, best to worst, using dividend, safety and growth in that order as criteria. This is a long term hold, so > 3 years. And would ALA be a better fit in the Utilities sector than energy?
thanks

Q: Hello 5i
I hold the above 4 companies in a taxable account that are down approx. 25%. I would like to sell to take a tax loss against future capital gains, and repurchase after 30 days. What might you suggest deploying the funds into in the mean time to still keep the sector allocation?
Thank you
Les

Q: Hi team - These two stocks have lagged lately. I am a long term investor, and am more focused on where the price is 5, 10 years from now, not the near or even mid-term noise.

I believe that you see both companies having strong management, but would you have confidence in their balance sheets over the long haul? I would like to add to both positions, but would hold back if you advised against it, or believe we could see the stocks drifting lower to even more attractive prices.

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i.
Pushed send on this question Jan 30. Resending.

Hello 5i
I have a couple oil investments(PSK/CPG) and have been using pipelines for Energy sector exposure.

As I have been watching the chatter on 5i about energy growth stocks and with today's pull back, I have been looking to enter positions of producers....possible VII(significant asset in the ground), TOU(after purchase from Shell), RRX(a 5i focus stock).

Would you please comment on preference from above or other from universe - related to search for growth from today's price , political situation and oil/gas price environment?

Peters and Co indicate expectation for $40 oil price going into summer. How would you balance this information in purchases today?

Thanks
Dave
