Q: You have noted that sector weakness is a factor in the decline in this equity due to long term factors weakening the oil price. Two questions - I) how much of our sector weakness is due to the price differential suffered by Canadian operators from the inability to get their product to world markets, and ii) while in the long run oil pricing may weaken for the reasons stated, the current situation - both short and medium term - appear likely to support the price of oil, perhaps as a minimum, Can you comment please.

Q: Wow, oil stocks are taking a whollop today, is this slide justified? Or, do you think this is a good day to jump into oil for a short term hold. I bought these stocks in December and sold in April for a 15% gain, and might consider again. Or, does it look like this downward trend is going to continue.

Q: Hi, was thinking of buying some IPL for some income and growth (50-50). What are your thoughts on company as far as debt,management ,and future stability, when we have a market correction.
Would hold for longer term 3-4+ years. Or would ENB be a better option with lower dividend.
Thanks

Q: With the most recent slide I am sitting on a $3000 loss in VET, my only full position in Energy, also have a half position in Meg. For tax planning I'm considering selling VET. Do you have a recommendation for a replacement Energy company with a similar yield to replace, or would you sit in cash for 30 days and repurchase VET ?

Q: Why has Yangarra become so cheap? I was considering taking a position since it was a very strong performer over the last 2 years (maybe even the best performer next to PXT), up until November. I'm pretty sure its due to the price of NatGas falling from November on to new lows and YGR is like 50% gas. Do you see a lot of potential in getting such a strong performer when the share price is so beaten down or is it best to avoid NatGas stocks since there is no way of knowing how long it stays down with so much supply?
