Q: We have full holdings in the 5 major Canadian banks. I notice that the pundits, including yourself, seem to favour TD and BNS yet our major gains have been in BMO and CM, both of which pay better dividends as well. Comment?

Q: Hi Peter, new member as of last week. Hope you're enjoying your ride for kids with cancer! My question is on CQE. The stock has been absolutely pounded since they made their disposition and again with the sector weakness of late. Would you view this company as pretty much a bet on a cold winter for the next 9 months? The valuation is cheap ~4xCF and the balance sheet issues have been addressed. Could they be a target? Thanks and keep up the great service!
Q: Why is Surge Energy, for several days now, going into the tank?

Q: I am somewhat confused by your response to Gord as to utilities & interest rates. Are you saying that Pembina (PPL) has a relatively higher yield and little in the way of growth opportunities making it a concern when interest rates rise?
Q: Hi Team, As of writing this email, SGY (Surge Energy) has a yield of 7.9%.
Is that not to high? The share price needs to move up and we should be around a 5% div yield level which is closer to where most of the small-mid cap oil & gas dividend payers are. Could you enlighten me? Thanks,

Q: Hi,
I hold SGY but continue to be concerned about the backdrop on oil. Looks like oil is headed resistance at $86. What is your take on the mid & long term prospects for oil price & how SGY will fare in a lower oil price environment if that is what you foresee.
thx

Q: re: Utilities & Interest Rates
I know we all continue to watch for any mention that it is time to raise interest rates. And it appears to me to be inevitable - just a matter of when.
It is obvious which sectors should benefit once this happens - banks, insurance, lenders - also just as obvious we can probably expect REITs to take a hit when they go up.
Can you please comment on what effect rising interest rates will have on Utilities? And which companies in particular we should have our eyes on when rates do go up?
Thanks for all you do
Gord
