Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

What is your opinion on Canadian Utilities (CU) and Fortis (FTS) at current prices. This would be for a safe long term investment. I am looking for income and some growth.

Thanks for the excellent service you provide.

Q: Hello Peter & 5i Team

Are there any hedges in place that will help support Surge and if not how do you feel the company is doing currently? Will they manage to keep the dividend at current levels or would it be at risk if oil prices remain at these levels?

Thanks for your valued opinion, as always.

Q: Your comments please on the above oil co. thanks

Q: Hi,

It is in the model portfoliio. In Oct. 22 on MarketCall, Eric Nuttell mentioned that he has a high regards for the company, but that the dividend may be at risk.

Do you perceive any risk in the dividend?


Thanks,
IF

Q: Greetings, Peter and Staff.
I find High Arctic Energy to be a very frustrating stock. The company appears to be great while the stock is not. If the stock begins to move up, it invariably gets whacked.
The stock has been doing better recently but today it took a big hit. The stock dropped $0.27 (7+%) in the last two or three minutes of trading for the week. I am concerned that HWO may be the target of a short attack so I will be watching for a very negative analyst report by Monday.
Am I paranoid? Can you help me understand what happened at the close?
With much appreciation for your excellent service.

Q: I still own this - should I sell or do you think it will be bought out?
Thanks for your advice!

Q: Hi- what do you think of Rocky Mountain now? They seem to have more than enough earnings and cash flow to cover the dividend- might they swing their business at all to benefit from infrastructure spending? Are they in a trough here?
Thanks

Q: What you you consider to be the three best oil and gas stocks right now for someone who does not hold any?

Q: I have held PHX for years - mainly for the income but (once upon a time) also for growth as well. Now both seem to have disappeared.

I am considering a switch into BDI (Black Diamond) once again looking for income (~10.4% yield) and growth (currently beaten up but showing signs of life). Could I please have your opinion:
Stay with PHX; or move on to BDI or would that likely be a frying pan/ fire scenario.
If so, any suggestions for another company with income and growth potential.
Thanks for you help.

Q: May I have your opinion of this company?

I'm looking at this as a turnaround play. Stock has been absolutely hammered; but there appears tremendous upside and value here. They were on the brink of bankruptcy due to leverage, and have since recapitalized. They have a cash flow positive assets in Nicaragua as well... Is this a value trap? or a bet worth taking for a patient investor with guts?

Not to encourage groupthink but I've searched the company profile on Morningstar.ca and discovered that this company is a top position in a mutual fund called Pender Small Cap Opportunities.

I'd appreciate your thoughts on this. I understand that these kind of bets can be volatile.

P.S: I own most of your growth portfolio and am comfortable within the small cap realm of investing, with a time frame over 20 years. Great work on the small cap special report. Keep it up.

Q: Hello Team In researching this company I found that Warren buffet did a sizable purchase of shares. Can I get your views of this company and Warren's actions. I am considering on taking a small position and then accumulating on dips. Thanks

Q: i have a small weighting in oil by owning SGY,WCP,TOG,andSPE.In your opinion what is the out look for these type of companies if oil stays range bound between 45-50 dollars a barrell for the next 12-18 months?

Q: when is next seasonal strong period for energy or is there such a thing? Brooke Thackery and Don Vialloux talk of this. I want to reenter a trade in SGY with 1% of my portfolio.

Thx

Thanks

Q: Shareholders reject Suncor's bid. What 's next for cos shareholders? Stock going back down?

Q: Peter et al.

What do you make of the Premium Placing at $1.05 by Delek in Ithaca for $66 million and approximately 20% of the shares outstanding? Ithaca has moved up in the last month and seemed to be liquid until after the planned Stella start-up in July of next year. They say the funds will be used to reduce debt and for satellite field acquisitions. If used for debt reduction it will not have much affect on the nearly $750M outstanding debt for the huge equity giveaway. If used to acquire future production at a cheap price then I see value but to reduce the debt it will have a marginal impact right now IMO. What is your viewpoint? Am I missing something here.

Regards,

Brendan
