Q: In a previous question relating to TRP, you wrote "Interest might come back to the name but with the poor momentum, we would prefer to wait for some sustained strength in shares before getting interested." How much emphasis do you put on momentum vs valuation? And with an increase in momentum, you would see an increase in the valuation. If you were a long term investor and believed in the company why not buy at a more attractive price?

Thank you!

Q: I own ENB, FTS, and TRP but think I should position more into green/clean /renewable type energy companies. I do own AQN which I believe fits into the clean/renewable category. So I am thinking to sell one of ENB, FTS or TRP and replace it with a greener alternative. So which one would you sell and what would you buy to replace it with(can you provide more than one option)?

Q: Hello I have accumulated about 27% of my cash portfolio in ENB and TRP combined due to DRIP and the fact that I have held the shares for about 20 years. The also make up about 10% of my total investments. If I sell, the tax will be like a kick in the pants and so I have never sold. The dividends have always been good too. But with Trudeau looking for areas to raise some cash, I feel capital gains might get worse. If I were to sell some of this, would you suggest some renewable energy issues such as AGN or BEPC to replace?

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor. I own AQN, FTS, TRP.

I am trying to put into perspective the relative market share (whatever the appropriate metric is?) of Renewable Energy vs Traditional Energy. The recent surge in renewables has, I'm sure, accelerated the transition from traditional to renewable. I am wondering how far into the future the oil industry has (20 years?)?

While I have no data, I suspect if we broke down the various energy subsectors into Renewables (solar, hydro, tidal, wind) vs Gas vs Oil, that Renewables would currently make up roughly 10-20%? Can you please give me the current breakdown vs where we are forecast to be in 5-10-20 years?

Thanks...Steve
