Q: everyone seems to agree that the energy stocks have never been so cheap, ignored by investors etc.
can you see a way for those stocks to start getting recognized, should i start picking away.
i do not own any energy, but these is getting ridiculous.
i think jim cramer or one of those pundits said its because of millenials who hate oil, they are into electric. dave

Q: Could I get your thoughts on Surge. Seemed their latest financials were pretty good. I appreciate the sector is out of favour but todays stock prices for Surge seem to be extremely over pessimistic. You would think oil will still be a very necessary commodity for many years to come. So are we looking at some algorythm or something fundamental which I missing to cause the downward spiral this company seems to be in?

Q: Hi 5iR, I have been out of investing in energy stocks for a while, however with oil back down in the low $50.00 range I'm reviewing a few names. TOG and SGY appear to be very attractively priced and pay an excellent dividend. I can't seem to find any negative analyst reporting on either one?? Maybe that's telling me something?? In addition, TD has just raised its' target price on both of them and TOG has increased it's dividend. TD's Target Price on TOG is $8.50, which would mean better than 100% upside at todays price of $4.00
The story with VET is a little cloudy......they do have a lot of debt, but the management team is excellent and the European exposure means more cash for their product.
My questions are: is the oil sector a place to start allocating some funds now and how do the above names stack up as investment choices?
Thanks Team. Cheers, Chris

Thanks Gary

Q: Hi 5i - I have 10% invested in these energy stocks, now worth 5% of my portfolio. Would you put any new money in any of these to take advantage of the run up in oil? Or just sit tight and hope for a recovery (or sell outright)? Thanks, Neil

Q: Hello ... I purchased SGY a couple of years ago at much higher levels and am now thinking of averaging down. I consider Surge to be one of the better names in the small cap oil space (if that's possible) as I feel they have good assets, solid management, manageable debt and a sustainable dividend (provided energy prices don't take a tumble). I also think they are a potential take-over target. I'm looking at a 3+ year hold.
Comments please.

Q: I just sold my final energy stock last week for tax-loss, VET, so I'm out of the sector right now and wonder if it's a good time to reenter. I sold these two stocks in the summer, and see they are way down from where I sold. Are they still considered good companies, and do you think there is some growth in the stocks in 2019? Are the dividends considered secure? Thanks!

Q: I have held sgy ,wcp and xeo for several years and am down substantaily. I recently added more sgy and wcp on the hope of benefiting from tax loss selling. Both wti and wcs prices are rising this past week but these oil stocks are continuing to go down. If oil prices continue to rise slowly where do you think these stocks will be in the new year.
