Q: Good day 5i, do you believe the energy sector will ever recover and if so would this be a good time to start small positions considering most companies are at their lowest valuations in history? Thx in advance

Q: Hello,
Reading back through your comments on Baytex, it appears you are not large fans.. However, in the last question, you mention it has strong free cash flow yield.. I understand that you don't trust the management team, but in this environment where all management teams are in survival mode and paying down debt or buying back shares, don't you want to align with the best free cash flow companies?
Thanks,

Q: Hi 5iR Team, TD puts out a monthly consolidated report of its stock coverage universe. In the Sept. 30th report I looked at their Junior/Intermediate O&G stocks. I noticed that if I arbitrarily picked an upside % of 70% i.e. current price and TD's Target Price there were 13 stocks. The lowest was TOG at 70% upside and the highest NVA at 152%. In addition, some of the stocks like WCP and FRU are yielding 8%+. For me as an investor this is compelling data. Lastly, reading further into the report TD's O&G sector thinking as stated by their senior analyst is not Bullish. In other words TD does not appear to be exaggerating the facts, attempting to make some case for investors buying O&G stocks.........but the analysts in the field certainly feel incredibly positive on a number of Junior/Intermediate names.
How do I sort this out??
What would be 5iR's top Jr/Int. O&G picks?
Thanks team. Cheers, Chris

Q: Good morning folks
I sold all shares of VET over 30 days ago for a tax loss. The loss was about 1.65% of my entire PFs. I'm thinking of buying back in for some gain and the dividends. Either my TFSA or RRIF? Or maybe leaving my energy very low for awhile? My question is...but now? Watch? Or get out all together? Or would you suggest any other stock?
Thank you for a good year

Q: The Surge Energy share price is now struggling to stay above $1.00. Please comment on the implications of a company's share price declining below this threshold. Once it does, do certain institutional investors (mutual funds, ETFs, pension funds, etc) have to divest their holdings? If so, does this mean that the overall demand for the shares will drop significantly?
