Q: Hello all
I am zero invested in oil and gas right now.
I have a bit of room in RSP account and thinking of taking one oil stock with a decent dividend for a long term hold. Purchasing right away so today’s prices are in play.
Either Vermillion or White Cap fit I think, thoughts on those or another option would be appreciated.

Q: With the current difficulties with pipeline development and the negative view of oil sands, how do you view the risk profile of the pipeline business in general and would you rate the risk differently for these three companies?

Q: Can you give me your thoughts on Whitecaps earnings? Seems like another not great quarter aside from decent revenue and production growth. Share price is down a couple percent more than its peers today. But I'm more concerned with the long term trend, it has been weak to say the least. At one point I was up about 25% on WCP when oil prices were much lower than they are now. WCP doesn't seem to be participating in the oil price recovery like many of its peers, possibly due to its acquisitions. I understand its a quality company with an okay div that was just increased. But if one wants to play the oil price recovery which is a little risky, don't you want to invest in a company with some torque that will actually benefit rather than take the risk for little reward. CVE for example has done great and also has a div (little smaller). Should I sit tight and wait for better results or lessen my position and add a company that has shown results the last few quarters?

Q: Can you please suggest a US$ stock that would be leveraged to an increase in the oil price? I am looking for a good, 5i-style company, but if possible, not necessarily a giant that doesn't have a lot of room to run. I appreciate you don't follow the US market but do let me know if there is something that you might be able to recommend.

Thank you,

Chris

Q: Maybe - we're really going to see a sustained positive - ongoing movement in the Cdn. oil patch. That said, I'm looking short term (1 yr) for a bite into several undervalued stocks, particularly where leverage is large. Would appreciate your comments on these in order of preference as well as any others. Thank you.

Q: Well I was lucky enough to hold shares of ANDV and it was taken over by MPC this a.m.

Combination of shares and cash.

If you were holder of ANDV what would you do at this point? Sell or hold? Partial or total?

Thanks

Sheldon
