Q: With respect to energy producers, would it be fair to say that producers such as Suncor, who also have refining assets, are better shielded against the current downturn in the energy sector, given that the cost of the input (crude oil) allows for a (theoretically) larger crack spread ? Unrelated to energy, do you believe that a company such as 3M, which manufactures various items used in the medical field, will weather the current corovirus downturn a bit better ?

Q: Hello,
I'm a looking to invest in dividend stocks. Currently I would like to increase my exposure to the Utilities sector. Given the current economic conditions, which of the above stocks are most at-risk of cutting or reducing their dividends? Also, of the above, are there any standouts that you prefer? I am also looking at AQN and FTS aswell as BEP.UN and BIP.UN.

Thank you

Q: I bought half positions in CNQ and SU and I have buy orders in at lower prices which I never thought I would see ($8 for CNQ). At current prices, CNQ is yielding over 15%. Even though their dividend was well covered, does it matter how low their share price goes or is it more a function of how long the coronavirus and price war going on for that you force them to cut their dividend? Would they cancel share buybacks before cutting their dividend even though share prices are so low?

Thanks,
Jason
