Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have received voting materials from XOM and there is a lot of discussion about a hedge fund called "Engine No. 1" that is trying to insert some directors on the board of XOM. This is interesting to me. Are you familiar with this effort? Can that even happen? And should I follow XOM's advice and vote along party lines?

Thanks.

Q: Hi Folks,
I have MFC in my RRSP account and it's been relatively flat since I bought it despite a good earnings report - I am thinking of switching to TRP - can I have your opinion please. Stick with MFC or go with TRP?
Thanks

Q: Dear 5i,
I originally bought this for around $49; then the company adjusted when the split for BEPC occurred. Some time later, I thought it ok to sell them at around $70. How do I figure out if a re-entry point for BEP.UN is good today at around $45, given that if I look at my brokerage graph the historical value of what I paid at $49 then, appears as around $25 now ie the graph has changed because of the split?
If it is tough to calculate/compare history, could you advise if today is a good price - thinking this time I should hold them a longer 7+ years.
Thank you for helping me,
Hilary

Q: Parex seemed to take it on the chin a little more than its peers this morning following its earnings release yesterday. As usual the results were pretty solid. But I noticed these comments by mgmt "Parex is strategically accelerating assessment of its portfolio of operated assets, through increasing exploration and appraisal activity". This is sounding a bit like the last time PXT tried to put some assets up for sale and there were no good offers, then the share price tanked because of that. Does it sound to you like they are once again going down the path of trying to sell assets?
