Investment Q&A

Q: Is there an easy way of calculating the dividend yield if the company issues special dividend during the year. I know the present yield is 1.74%, but what would be the dividend yield if you include the special dividends it has issued during the last year. Or if there is a site that does the calculation for you I would appreciate getting it. Many tnx for all your hard work.

Q: How would you rank these companies in terms of overall growth going forward in the energy sector. I'm currently holding TOU, WCP, TVE and KEL.

Largest position is in TOU at around 3% (+44%) and smaller positions in WCP (+69%), TVE (-9%) and KEL (-14%) . I could add to any of these names. How does TOU compare vs AR in terms of natural gas companies? AR has pulled back in the last year and today it was up close to 9% which I couldn't find any news. I'm thinking of selling some TOU or just starting a new position in AR. I also like that AR is buying back shares, have strong insider ownership, founder operated, strong margins and balance sheet. All metrics seem pretty strong with AR, any red flags that you see? Thoughts?

Q: SU, BN, TOU, GSY all received haircuts Tuesday.

If you topped up for long-term hold, what would be the order and rationale? Thank you.

Q: Please provide your thoughts on how you would rank POU against ENB, SU, TRP, TOU, GXE and PXT for growth, holding for more than 5 years?
Thank you,
Roger

Q: Good day, what are your thoughts on the prospects for natural gas and what are your favourite US and CDN ways to play it?

Q: I sold my TOU & ARX about 2 months ago when the price of gas dropped and I was glad I did because both stocks drop app 20%. Right now the price of gas is still only about $2.30 and I hear that there is currently an over supply of Gas in North America (not sure about Europe - but I don't believe either company can get Gas to Europe yet) but both TOU and ARC are both rising. Why? Based on the current price of GAS both companies will see a huge drop in earnings this year. What am I missing??

Q: I would like to have a look ahead on both companies.Would TOU look at selling TPZ if the price was right and how would that affect TOU revenues and Dividend or would they sell both TOU. & Tpz if price was right.Mr Rose has already sold. Companies before.I understandTOU has some long term contracts. What does 5i crystal ball foresee in the future,s .Maybe some rich US company flush with cash look at them or would it be expensive for them. I enjoy the dividends,take your time I have many points to redem

Q: I am underweight in energy, owning TVE and ENB. Do you consider ti is a good time to increase energy exposure? I am considering TOU or SU. Which would you prefer for a 5 year hold?

Q: I own CNQ and MEG and am considering buying Tourmaline as its been hit so hard and should do better in the future. What do you think? Is owning MEG and Tour too much nat gas?

Q: If we were to see a recovery in the price of natural gas, what companies would have the most upside potential from their current price?
Of the names listed, as of today, would you consider them a buy, sell, or hold and why? Thank you for your insight.

Q: Hi, made a good profit on arx and was debating selling and buying tou, as it seems tou may be good value? Can you talk about valuation on the two and if you agree it would be a good switch . Would probably keep longer term barring any bad information.

Q: I am looking at our future LNG prospects and intend on increasing my positions in TOU, ARX and BIR. Can you firstly comment on this strategy for a long term play and secondly evaluate each company on its merits. Is there a company that would be a better choice.
Please deduct as many questions as you determine,

Q: Peter; Andrew McGreath is back on BNN and he did an interview with Mike Rose , that is avail on their site. Very informative and interesting. Nizar might want to see it.

Q: I Have 1000 TD AND 400 TOU at loss are they recoverable or replace them with better choice,Thank for your Opinion.

Q: I'm generally underweight energy and was thinking of averaging down on TOU and ENB and starting a position in CNQ.

I'm a bit hesitant with ENB.

Any concerns? Or anything I should be aware of?

Thanks,
Robert

Q: Hi, Energy sector has witnessed a sharp sell off last week, with market and decline in Oil prices. Recession worries seem to be growing higher and with ECB sticking to 0.50% rate hike, market seems to be expecting Fed to stay course with its hawkish stance, despite recent turbulence in banking sector. Some large Energy traders are reported to have lightened their positions significantly, early in the week. We as well as most of 5i members are simple retail buy and hold investors and do not have access to advanced tools/money flow and other expertise.

With the recent market backdrop in the sector, and Oil/NG prices flirting with new lows, has your view, in terms of maintaining about 10% weighing in the sector, changed ? Or, do you believe that market concerns are of short term in nature and there is value and a strong case to remain invested in the sector for say, at least 12-24 months ?

Mr. John O'Connell of Davis Rea was on BNN, warning viewers to stay away from the Energy sector, claiming that cost of production of most companies is higher than current prices. (which appears to be a questionable claim). On the other end, there is Mr Eric Nuttal, an expert in the sector with $2 Bln AUM, with completely opposite views.

Thank You

Q: does TOU have any long term contracts in place to provide natural gas to any to the LNG plants approved or under construction in Canada? if yes can give details on these contracts thanks Richard
