Q: BEP's share price is up almost 4% today and it has been very strong over the past month or so. I know other alternative energy stocks have also been strong (e.g. NPI), but not as strong as BEP. What is causing the huge move in BEP again today? Any news or ideas? Are the l likely to have a share offering at these prices?

Q: Peter & Co.,
I am reviewing Vermilion’s operation, financials and dividend in light of the Coronavirus. The virus is still largely an unknown factor in world health and economics. However, the impact on travel and commerce is certainly being felt. Among my concerns is the short/long term impact on energy consumption. Vermilion has 60% of its production in North America and 35% in Europe. Is there any way to evaluate what impact we can might expect on VET over the longer term?
With appreciation, Ed

Q: What do you think about Jim Cramer's comments that fossil fuels are dead? With all the pipeline protests and endowment funds divesting of fossil fuel investments, it seems there is limited long term growth for these companies. Should one divest of pipeline and fossil fuel stocks and instead go towards renewables? Considering that millennials will be the next big wave of investors, and they tend to be anti fossil fuels. Could you provide some ETFs that are focused on renewables?

Q: Utilities seem to go parabolic since December 2018 with no sign of slowing down. Since interest rates seem to remain low for a foreseeable future, is this a new secular trend emerging from improved interest in green energy. ZUT in particular includes many renewable power generator companies. So I basically have 2 questions: If this is a new secular trend should one increase their utility allocation ? 2: Is there still life for oil and gas companies ?

Q: Q: Hello Gentlemen,
I hold 5.8% of TRP and 4.2% of ENB in my portfolios. Long term TRP has underperformed both PPL and ENB. I consider selling half of TRP (in RIFF) and use the proceeds to take a position in PPL.
Your opinion please.
Thank you,
Werner

Q: Hello: Back in 2015, I purchased a number of shares in IPL for approximately $25.00. Now they seem to be sitting at about $22.00 and there has been no significant changes for some time. Although the dividend is ok, I realize it has to be based on my purchase price, so isn't really 7+ %. I had hoped the price would increase with the recent pipline news, but it didn't. Back in 2015, these shares were considered a strong buy. How would you rate them Now?
