Q: Currently my only energy exposure is by way of pipelines; ENB and PPL. Given the prospects for good energy demand and increasing dividends in the sector I would like your recommendation for a company with good dividends and relative strength to withstand the ups and downs in the sector.
This would be a long term position in my dividend focused non-registered portfolio.
I have targeted the above 3 companies as prospects but would be open to others you may recommend. Any preference for Oil vs Gas focus?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have held this company for years and of course am down a ton. It is in my RIF account so a tax loss is not possible. So with energy rising do you think this stock may rise in the near future. It would be great to regain some of my losses. On the other hand maybe this is as good as it gets and might as well move on! Thanks your opinion is always helpful!

Q: When I look at cash flows from utilities, they also seem to show a negative cash flow. In general terms, how do they run there business if they are always in the negative ? Are they always looking to the bond and/or stock market to pay for their huge capex spending ?

Q: Hi!

I'm sitting on some large gains in the energy sector. Given the cyclicality of the sector how should we go about trimming our holdings? Should we just maintain our sector allocation and trim if and when it gets too big? Its taken a long time for energy to come back since 2014 so I don't want to sell too early, but any unforeseen event can hurt prices quickly. Do you think we are still in the early stages of the energy/commodity bull market? I read they tend to run in 5 year cycles.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: If you where to buy one energy stock, what would it be? The only one I have, that is close is Enbridge. Do you think it is even worth buying any energy at all, as it is so cyclical. Every time I buy one, I loose money on it?? My timing is never right.
Thank you. Shirley

Q: I have a small profit on KEY but I've been disappointed in the lack of growth recently and I was wondering if I could do better with PPL. Yields are about the same but I would prefer more growth. I already have lots of ENB and TRP in a well diversified portfolio. Appreciate your thoughts.
