Q: Hello, just want to ckeck with you if my calculations of the debt / cash flow ratio of Enb is exact? I obtain a ratio of 9.2 and here is how I get it using data from Tmx Money: Long term debt of 60.8 B / Net cash from continuing operations of 6.6 B = 9.2 ratio. If that is what you have, are we in dangerous territory? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Hi 5i,

When options are being written in a covered call ETF, what would be the contributing factors (ie. sector, interest rates) would effect the price of the options being written at a discount or premium and why?

Thanks

Q: Good morning 5i team,

I was wondering what your view would be on the changes that the drop in a utility like enbridge might be finished or whether there is more to come. It is an attractive price at the moment. But, there are a number of rate hikes coming in the coming year. Would these already be written in, or is there more carnage to come? Just looking for an educated guess.
thanks

Q: I have a 1/2 of a position of ALA and a full position in VET and PEY in my Oil and Gas part of my portfolio. I'm above water on both VET and PEY but down 15% on ALA. Should I buy more ALA or start another position with another company. If starting another position can you make a suggestion? This will bring me to about 15% Oil and Gas.

Thanks Greg
