Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
BXE just reported horrible numbers. Since I am not an accountant... I am wondering about all these financial transactions. Do they really reduce there debt and put them on a more sustainable footing going forward. Do they really buy them time and the ability to survive this down cycle? I realize an increase in oil price would be great news for all energy companies!
Thanks for your time and insightful thoughts... and yes you are always great on BNN! Ha!Ha!

Q: I bought enerflex when it went down, thinking it would pop back up and i would sell it. It took a bit of time but i finally have a ptrtty good profit from it. At the time i asked a question about efx and you said that if there was a sustained turnaround it might be interesting. Do you think it might be worth waiting to see whether this is that sustained turn around? Or, should i take my profit and run?
Thanks Peter, Ryan and team

  • View Questions on SGY

Q: My energy holdings are comprised of two names, SGY (fallen from half to quarter position) and BP (Plc) (maintaining its half position). SGY should survive but hasn't really participated in any meaningful upswing. Is there any fundamental reason for its lacklustre performance compared to peers in this sector? Would it be worth maintaining this position (I've held on throughout all dividend cuts) or abandoning it for some other company in this sector?

Thanks

Q: Nobody talks about this Sprott company. No analyst covers it. Very thinly traded.
Is it cheaper or more expensive than other energy company? Is it more in oil or gas? How is management?
Is the debenture safe? Yields 6.75 on par but trades at about 71. Giving effective yield of 9.4% and almost 30% with capital gain with maturity at 6/30/2018.

Q: I own both of these in my TFSA. I think of them as different because ATD is international with a focus on gas sales while PKI is Canadian and has propane distribution along with its gas. However, given your comments on BNN last night, should I consider them more as similar companies and combine my investments when calculating my portfolio exposure?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Husky has been nasty. Big drop, cut its dividend and seems to be wallowing. Is there any hope for it or should I bite the bullet, sell at a big loss, and look to invest in something more hopeful? It's in a registered account, so I can't claim the loss.
