Investment Q&A

Q: I am interested in this small drilling firm as they seem to have the advantage of a far more efficient operating day rate than the larger drilling firms while maintaining an excellent operational reliability standard (due to reliance on older, less technological drilling rigs?). What can you tell me about them. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
I note you have listed CVE as a good O&G option lately, first times I recall you doing so. There have been many saying they overpaid for their big purchase and that their debt is too high which if true is usually meaning a non endorsement by 5i. What is the case for this stock now in your opinion and is it not more properly lumped with the big boys like SU or CNQ? Do you prefer it over those two as well?
Thanks for all you do

Q: SPE is being purchased by VET. Many takeovers involve deferring tax (profits) similar to VSN and PPL deal. However if I have a loss in SPE is it better to sell and buy VET as I still like the acquisition also any thoughts on this VET given the purchase. Thanks

Q: I will be selling Suncor and also own RRX and thinking of buying more RRX to average down or would it be better to buy WCP? I currently do not own WCP.

Thanks

Q: Thanks for answering my question regarding the lawsuit filed by BXE. Just to clarify, I am an owner of TWM and have no interest in BXE. I was simply pointing out that BXE (like pretty much every other energy stock) had risen nicely over the past few weeks while TWM had not so I wondered if this lawsuit was the reason.

Q: I was wondering why the SP of TWM had been weak lately while the rest of the energy sector has been rebounding. This morning I stumbled into this while doing research. And BXE is a good example of a stock that has had a nice climb over the past 10 days. As always, I would appreciate your views.

On February 1, 2018, Bellatrix Exploration Ltd. ("Bellatrix") served an Amended Statement of Claim (Statement of Claim filed by Bellatrix on December 21, 2017) on Tidewater alleging a breach of a Gas Handling Agreement and CO&O Agreement pursuant to which Tidewater operates the BRC gas plant and processes Bellatrix gas volumes. The claim pertains to the allocation of NGLs at the plant, as well as production flow through and take-or-pay commitments. The claim is for $20.75 million plus additional damages. The action was commenced in the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta. Tidewater subsequently filed a Statement of Defence and Counterclaim against Bellatrix seeking $9.5 million plus additional damages. As at the date hereof, Bellatrix has not filed a Statement of Defence to the Counterclaim.

Q: Does it make sense to buy SPE today. To take advantage of the premium VET is offering?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have heard several analyst on BNN say that no one cares about the oil and gas sector...that there is absolutely no interest in this sector. Therefore if there are no buyers the stocks will stay at rock bottom. Can you see any hope for long term investors of this sector? Thanks?

Q: I recently made a switch out of HWO into BIR, as I am of the mindset that BIR should do well (better than HWO) in the upcoming months because of potential bottle-necking of supply of oil in the upcoming months (this theory was mentioned by Josef Schachter on a recent BNN appearance), as well as BIR's current price being discounted significantly from book value. My question is if I should consider starting a new position in HWO at some point in the future, because if the theory about bottle-necking of supply proves to be accurate, then a company such as HWO would benefit as demand for drilling new wells would increase in response. Thanks so much, and I look forward to your response.

Q: I would appreciate your suggestion for two of your favourite stocks right now, in Real Estate and Energy. I was thinking about Tricon ... ??? and ????

This will be for an RRSP Account, in Canadian Currency.

I own Brookfield Renewables (BEP.UN) and Algonquin Power (AQN) already in this account, each roughly 5%. I have no weighting in Energy/Oil/Gas specifically, just in utilities. If adding another company in a similar space is too much weighting, please advise.

Thanks much!
