Q: Good morning,

I have been following BDI for a while. I know that they have raised money for a price higher than the current stock price. Also, they have serious debt to take care off and have cut their dividend twice already. Last Monday, they introduced a Drip program for dividend payout. Is this good news or bad news? Explain to me what the drip program will do the share price and how it will affect the current shareholders?

Thank, you

Paul

Q: I hold some shares of PGF from before oil tanked and am down 25% now after its been recovering a little in the last few months. They have a ton of debt and I have only continued to hold the stock because it has been recovering with the price of oil. I don't plan to hold this stock for the long term but I felt I could make some of my money back, which has worked so far.But Seeking Alpha released a negative report today stating it will likely not meet all its debt obligations and suggesting maybe a reverse stock split could have to happen. Do you think I should get out of PGF now?

Q: Merry Christmas folks. Cheers to a great year with a lot of help from the excellent work done by yourselves.
I have over the past two years divested myself of all oil and gas save a small piece of RDS.A
While I don't see a large recovery for at least another, and then a slow climb at best, for oil, I am thinking maybe it is time to start thinking about a piece of a dividend paying, probably service company sometime.
Thoughts?
Cheers, safe travels and lots of smiles this holiday season

Q: I've held SGY for a number of years and, as is the case for a lot of oil producers, it was a decent stock until the 2014 collapse in oil prices. It has come back a bit recently but I have a cost base of $6.31. Should I continue to wait patiently for a further recovery in oil prices (perhaps years away) or take the loss and put the proceeds into something else (what?)?

Q: I am selling my Conoco Phillips for tax loss reasons and looking at what to replace it with. What are your favourite big oil stocks? All the fundamentals look pretty bad to me but comparing charts over the last decade I find Chevron and CNRL seem to be stand out performers. I would prefer to have a good dividend which is fairly safe since I am semi retired.
