Q: Eric Nuttal appeared on BNN on Friday. He is very bullish on both of these stocks. My questions 1) Do you still feel that there is a significant upside in oil stocks in general? 2) What are your thoughts on these two stocks 3) What is the better investment now - quality gas stocks or quality oil stocks

Q: Can I please get your outlook on the energy sector, and the holdings above- how would you rank them for a 1 year hold, would the ranking change for a 5 year hold?
There is the view that energy will come back to represent a larger % of the index again.

Q: Peter; Maybe I’m overthinking this but if we have a major geopolitical event( war ends,) and oil drops substantially, how will large oil stocks funds all exit? I know you don’t like stop losses but how else could a retail investor protect gains? Should we be selling off bits on the rallies? Thanks. Rod

Q: I just received a few hundred shares of an ADR, Australia-based Woodside Energy Group WDS-N from a spin-off of my BHP-N holdings. I must admit it caught me off guard as to the event. There is not a lot of data available on this Perth-based energy firm. It appears to of had a decent run lately. What I am interested in is the fact that its geography in South Asia, an area I have not really had much exposure to. Is it a valid company (in your view to hold for the near term?) The purpose would be purely for speculation. I feel oil and gas firms are near the peak in pricing so do you think selling is a better option. Thanks JIM

Q: Hi Peter,

How would you rank the following five Brookfield companies (BIP.UN, BIPC, BAM.A., BEP.UN, and BBU.UN) over a long-term hold with respect to risk-return? Which of the five securities has the highest risk and which one do you perceive has the lowest risk?

Your comments are much appreciated.

Q: I hold the above utilities and have seen many recent questions on these. I believe our electrification demands will continue to rise very significantly over the next few decades.
I am retired and mainly looking for dividend growth and some, or good overall growth. Please rank as to which you think has the best outlook over next 5 years or more. I hold similar amounts of each? Would you add to one or two mainly or equally to all?
Thank you for great service.

Q: I am always confused on days like this when Canadian oils go one way and American oils the other. I would have thought the sectors would both move mostly in tandem guided by oil and gas prices. But, not for the first time, XEG is down today while XLE is up. Why would that be? Yes, it is a bad market day, but ALL my US oils are up strongly while many of the Canadians (TOU in particular) are down. BTW, what % of a diversified portfolio would you devote to oils and gas today? Should pipelines be included in that consideration?

Q: I hold SU PSK and WCP. I don't want to hold oil and gas in the long term, so want to eventually sell these three stocks. Do you feel this sector will likely perform well through a recession and would you tend to continue to hold them through the next year? Could you suggest a target price for each. Could you suggest what I might replace these with in the alternative energy sector - with dividend. Thank you!

Q: Do you think the remarkable energy share price surge will continue, if at a lesser pace than the past year? Rumours of $150-$180 oil are popping up. Would you care to offer a prediction for oil prices 12 months from now?
