Q: PHILLIPS 66 (PSX:NYSE)... I am looking for a combination of refiners for a pullback. The movement in the oil/gasoline is indicating that prices will retract again from current levels. I would like your thoughts on Phillips 66 and one other to hold for the next 12-18 moths. Consensus is looking at mid 2017 before the market really starts to get a hold of the supply side. Do you see this company able to grow revenues and possibly increase profitability?

Thank you
Jason N.

Q: I have a position in both TCW and CFW, which both are Well services. They had been rising nicely until a few weeks ago, but are currently on a downward slope. Is it time to bail out, or do you think they will rebound soon?

Thanks for your prompt advice!

Q: The following is a list of stock that I own showing the losses of each. Alta Gas(ALA) 32% Loss - Enerplus (ERF) 64% loss - Exco Tech(XTC)15% Loss - Gluskin (/GS) 32% loss -Painted Pony(PPY) 27% loss - Pur Tech(PUR) 27% loss and Surge(SGY)68% loss. Losses shown include dividends but I think all these companies have cut the dividends since I purchased them years ago. Question: Would you keep these or sell them now and purchase other stocks with better dividends. ? If you think these should be sold could you recommend a few. Thanks Ernie

Q: I own twelve oil and gas stocks in a $2.5 million portfolio as listed above. My advisor recommends selling the first seven stocks on the list and adding to the last five positions. I'm primarily interested in capital gains with dividends being a secondary consideration. Would you recommend selling any of the first seven stocks? If so, what gas and oil stocks would you choose as replacements? Thanks for your advise.

Q: Bellatrix Exploration has lots of sell recommendations. Stock has gone from $10 in 2014 to $1.20 today. Nuttall says “this name has been a total disaster”. But since then, the Alder Flats plant is back in operation and there have been recent efforts to shore up the balance sheet. Do you anticipate further downside to this stock or do you think it will recover ?

Q: Hi,
My only energy exposure is WCP and TOU each at 4% (total 8% of portfolio)

(A) In the current economic environment, considering I am targeting growth, what % would you recommend for energy exposure?
(b) Do you like these two holdings for covering and diversifying my energy exposure? or are there alternatives you think might be better at this point? When I compare charts for TOU vs. PEY, for instance, my untrained eye seems to show that PEY is acting better than TOU over the last year.

Thank you
