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

Q: I am a shareholder in Andeavor which announced this morning that it was being acquired in a friendly deal by Marathon Petroleum Corporation. I previously held shares in Western Refining that was in turn acquired by Tesoro, Andeavor's prior name, in a share deal. Marathon is offering $152 a share, payable in cash or shares. I am inclined to take the cash and run (assuming the deal clears antitrust review - note there is a large deal completion discount with Andeavor shares closing at $138 today). Do you have any thoughts on what a prudent course of action would be/would you be more inclined to take the shares or cash? (I hold the shares in a TFSA so no tax payable)

Q: I recently sold my Spartan shares for $6.77 - as of yesterday the price was down to $6.51 and I am looking at repurchasing.
in your opinion, should I purchase Vermilion or stay with Spartan (is there an advantage to be found here)?
It is my understanding that owners of Spartan receive .15 of a Vermilion share if the deal goes through!

Q: Hello Peter et al.

What is your viewpoint on SDX Energy at the moment? I have noticed that Josef Schachter has been on BNN lots of times promoting this stock. I see the benefit of it as well but I don’t agree with his prognosis of gas stocks in Canada being way undervalued and a good investment opportunity. His past picking history does not bode well in my opinion and because he likes SDX so much it concerns me. The company has no debt, lots of cash. Every well is a discovery in the last 6 morning months to a year. They are getting great prices for their gas in Morocco and Egypt. What is not to like!!! Am I missing something here?

Regards,


Brendan

Q: Could you talk a little about the company’s move into oil, I thought it is a pure gas play? I bought it on a gas turn around in the next couple of years but this recent Montey discovery is a big surprise.
Thanks

Q: I was interested in purchasing Athabasca Oil, given Eric Nuttall's recent comments on BNN that while the company's debt load is presently high, it should be "debt free in 3 or 4 months."

5 I, on the other hand, makes no mention of reduction of debt in Athabasca's future, in a recent comment and suggests further it is not a top choice.

Would you be able to elaborate on this please?
(5 I is my go-to for checks and balances, and I hardly do anything on the market now, without your opinion!)

If not Athabasca, what would be a good "growthier" name in the Energy/Oil space that you could recommend, with good conscience, at this time.

Thank you.
