Q: Curious to know your thoughts about Birchcliff Energy's earnings and implementation of a dividend. Their projections seem very realistic and attractive.
Q: Hi. I own QST and and am down more than 80%. Where do you see QST in 5 years from now? Would you sell it or add to an existing position at these levels? If so would you add to 1/2 position or full position? Thanks
Q: I only hold a 2% position and took it up in Feb at $5.90, are the concerns you have (I have read your views on this firm)changed given their quarterly results. I am very under weight the sector as a whole and am wondering if the results are good enough to add perhaps another 1%.They quote "We expect that if there is transparency to an oil price above $50 WTI (USA) that we will be able to present guidance showing double digit growth for 2017" Probable, possible or not likely? thanks
Q: Hi Peter, the above energy companies are held for a 20% weighting overall in an rrsp. Which ones would you keep and which ones would you cash in ? Whats a reasonable energy company weighting at this time ? Thank you.
Q: If a stock such as SU which is listed on both Cdn and US exchanges is purchased on the US side, is the dividend going to be eligible for the same tax credit as if it was purchased on the Cdn side [bought thru a Cdn discount brokerage]
Q: What do you think about proposed merger of GE & BHI oil services assets to form a separate company and the $17.50 per share dividend GE will pay BHI shareholders? Any idea on timeline and whether this proposed deal will have any regulatory issues? I can't see any regulatory issues - but, who knows. I was thinking of buying this one as I currently do not own any gas or oil producers - so, surrogate for them.
Q: I've written previously about overhauling a friend's poorly diversified portfolio. I re-worked 2/3 of it in the summer and that's going well but I left most of his energy holdings in place because the sector was rallying even though I wasn't a fan of many of the stocks.
I re-assessed yesterday and we're now selling KWH.UN, the disastrous CPG, and PGF while keeping small positions in ERF and VSN.
In a 7 figure portfolio that has pipelines but no other energy producers what companies would you suggest are best primed to grow assuming oil prices gradually rise. Dividends a bonus of course. In my own portfolio I have WCP, PEY, ALA, KEY and SGY.
I bought ETP, Energy Transfer Partners, a couple months and am now down 15%. Virtually every day it drops a little lower. Despite this, it is hugely popular with analysts? Should i sell or hold on?
