Q: in an earlier question i asked about tax loss selling for rrx and you mentionned pxt and vet. I should have mentionned that I already own whitecap. in doing a little further research I noticed in another question you answered that you said whitecap could be a reasonable replacement for RRX. Wondering if this is still true and whether it makes a big difference which one is chosen
thanks for your great help

Q: I have held these loss stocks in my well-diversified portfolio for many years. I am willing to wait for a turnaround and do not need the cash. Which if any would you recommend selling now if you consider holding them to be a lost cause. Thank you

Q: I note Rosenberg’s article in the globe this morning in which, among other things, he likes energy stocks at the moment. Do u agree with his assessment and if so would u purchase individual stocks or an ETF and would u focus on producers or service providers and in which geographical area? Can you provide specific recommendations. Thx

Q: Hi. The sentiment seems to remain quite negative for the the smaller oil names like RRX. When even oil strengthens and the Cdn dollar weakens, it still goes down. I thought with oil firming up over the last couple of months, it would start to show some strength. Is it just Canadian smaller cap oil sentiment or is there something happening on Canadian netbacks or the longer end of the oil price curve that is driving this? Would you recommend continuing to hold? I could use the capital loss this year, what similar security would you recommend buying if I was to retain my exposure? Thanks!
