Q: Hi there
I own Onex through the common stock (OCX) and their Onex Credit Partners (OCS.UN) which I have been treating more or less like a debenture/bond issue. I was attracted to the high yield and the backing of Onex on Onex Credit Partners. I am up considerably on the Onex equity over the years, but lately Onex Credit Partners has been falling quite a bit - down to $8.48 from $9.50 in August. I am curious why this might be occurring in a stable interest rate environment and with Onex doing very well.
Love your service.

Q: The globe and mail lists a p/e on loblaw of over 2,000?.. Is is that overvalued? It is one of a few of my winners in my portfolio. Is it time to trim?

Q: I fortuitously sold Suncor back in June but am now wanting to buy back into oil and gas in my wife's TFSA account. I have badger (bad) and Superior Propane (spb) in another rsp account but this would be more of a direct investment in the beleagured oil and gas industry. I have 10 000 dollars of room to invest with a long term window and was wondering which two of sgy,su,spe,or su you would recommend. Do I go back into the rock solid dependable Suncor or seek more growth with the likes of a Surge or Spartan or ???? Thanks

Q: Hi guys,
With the latest news from OPEC and the steep declines in oil prices, can you provide a few names that you think will benefit most from lower oil prices that we should have exposure to?
Also, I know natural gas stocks and oil stocks get lumped together and that sentiment is very bad right now, but some natural gas stocks are getting hammered with gas over $4. Doesn't seem reasonable.

Q: Hello Peter & Co.
Comparing the above 2, WSP has outperformed STN in 2014 ytd; but STN was the better performer in the longer term.
Could the underperformance of STN this year partly be due to its greater exposure to the energy sector?
Thanks,
Tony

Q: Good morning,
I own an equal amount of each of these stocks which have all dropped in the past year. Reading your answers, I plan to ride them out.
1) If I were to add to them, would you recommend an equal amount or would you favour one over the others?
2) Would I be better to leave them alone and add STN, AEM and TOU?
Long term holder.Thanks for your calm advice
Paul

Q: In addition to your comment, I have a rule to follow very strictly my orders. At the open, it is open season for your trade if you do not want to control it. A good placement requires a little effort, also be aware that most "professional" traders enter the market around 10h30 to avoid the fog of your type of trade at the open... At the office you can use your phone to place a trade, better in my view.

Q: I need to invest in the health care sector to balance my portfolio. I'm retired but able to accept some risk. I would appreciate some growth and income from the sector. That being said, should I invest in Valeant, Johnson & Johnson or Gilead. OR would the 3 make a balanced basket of investments? Are there other investments in this sector that might meet my needs? As always, thanks in advance for your much appreciated advice.
