Q: Good morning and thank you again and again and again for your precious enlighted comments. In the context of the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm currently underweight in Basic materials (own 3 gold miners) Energy (own key and tou) Helathcare (own veev and gud) Real estate (own dir) Where would you add first and would you please add suggestions as to how to complete my weithings.

Thanks as always.

Q: Hi Guys,

I'm starting to get interested in the energy sector for more of a long term hold. The sector has been crushed but I don't believe the world is going to abandon oil and gas any time soon. Looking for a producer that pays a dividend, so I can get a return while I wait. What companies would you guys suggest?

Q: Can you comment on Tourmalines acquisitions and is it a buy right now?

Q: I have both in my RRIF. BIR has moved very well last 2 weeks and I am making small amount of money. Still down with TOU . Should I keep both for time being, have held them for quite a while. I could put the money in another stock, or top up TOU for dividend.With topaz starting maybe TOU would increase DIV sometime in future. Tks for helping in past

Q: Looking for growth in eventual energy recovery. Would you pick one over the other or both?
Is there similar but better, that I may have missed?

Q: Down 70% with PSI in a LIRA. Thinking of selling PSI and using the proceeds to buy TOU. Is TOU a good choice? Thank you.

Q: Please give your best guesstimate for oil and gas companies that can continue their current dividend at $30 or more a Barrel and current natural gas prices
thank you

Q: Please take as many question credits
you need to fully answer this. I would like growth and reasonably safe stocks. I have losses in all of these; should I sell and take the loss? Hold as they are likely to recover in next 6--12 months? Thanks. Helen

Q: Please rate the above for survival and continued Div. payout in the next 5 years, based on cash- flow that well covers the dividend . I am a senior and need income. I have a position in all the above and would like a rating best first. Please insert your suggestions for the above criteria.
thanks

Q: What area your thoughts on the upcoming IPO that Tourmaline is doing on Topaz energy. Topaz estimates that upwards of 90% of cash flow will be distributed as dividends. Would this be a good dividend play or is this very speculative ?
Don

Q: Tou & Topaz deal announced. Would it be beneficial to own both stocks or will TOU still derive income from topaz.

Q: 1. what is your 1-2yr prospect for natural gas price?
2. what are your top 5 suggestions for Canadian publicly listed companies that are pure conventional natural gas plays?

my reasoning for conventional natural gas is we can't rely on unreliable and difficult to store 'green energy' to supply all our needs and there is much less by-product natural gas from fracking for oil. As well, liquid natural gas imports into Canada/US from other countries results in a loss during compression/decompression stage along with difficult transport in specialized tankers - it makes more sense to produce in North America for local consumption doesn't it?

A related queston is what do you speculate the price of natural gas will be for the next 1-5 years?

Q: Hello 5i, I purchased these stocks at a much higher (higher) price. As we approach tax loss selling , which ones are worth keeping? and which ones sell now?
Thanks for your great service.
Carlo

Q: What would be your top 3 natural gas picks and why?

Q: Seems nat gas has been on an upswing lately. I know you can't buy Canadian equities but would you buy into this trend now you could, and if so, which of the above 3 companies has the most upside. Are there other companies you would recommend?

Q: I'm holding an original $5,000 position in TOU that is down 67%.which has been held from quite some time.Question - With the recent pop in TOU market price, do I sell or just follow the price momentum and hold for a future sell?
Context - There is a 2020 taxable capital gain that would more than offset the TOU loss. But there is no rush to sell....just would like to get best price and exit this TOU position.....Tom

Q: Thank you all 5I staff for your precious support.
My question is more about Nat gas in general. There is a rise in the price of nat gas as a commodity and also with the related companies . What do you think is behind the rise ? Do you see this move as a momentum move or more secular and sustainable? What would you think about completing my energy exposure with the 2 companies above. I'm retired and own Enbridge in sufficient value.

Yves

Q: How safe dividends of this royalty trust. Which of these two companies is a better purchase at current prices?

Thank you

Q: I would like to comment that I think your service is best in class! Question: With Natural Gas near recent all time lows could you suggest 2 or 3 names in this space that could have upside if/when natural gas commodity pricing improves.
