Q: I'm getting ready to make my 2015 TFSA contribution for myself and my wife and I'm looking at Delphi for a 3+ year hold. I only have a 5% weighting in my portfolio to energy and would like to take a full 5% position in DEE. I'm well diversified across most other industries. Do you feel we've bottomed in energy sector and would Friday Jan 2 be a good time to start my position in DEE? Thoughts?
Q: Hi 5i team,
I would like to have your thoughts on ZCL, and an estimation of what would be your rating. Balance sheet is clean (no leverage, little other items on the asset side). Dividend is growing. Past management problems integrating acquisition seems no longer an issue. Insiders bought shares in late November. On the minus side: revenue growth has been variable, profit margins are close to their historical high, exposure to the oil industry.
Has ZCL stock price been hit too hard recently? What P/E multiple or P/CF should it trade at in the current environment? What could be a future catalyst (developing new geographical markets, acquisition)? Where would you classify ZCL: industrial or energy? Should it be a long term investment or a cyclical investment based on the economy? What is your view on this industry, and the position of ZCL in it?
Thank you for your help, Eric

Q: Peter and Team,
A quick question re: averaging down. First, we am doing very well with the overall portfolio; Thank you !! BDI is a outlier down 65% from where we bought and is now a minor player for us. With your positive outlook for BDI, is it time to average down ? Is this a typically a prudent strategy ? Many other "experts" frown on this. All the best to you all for a safe rest of the Christmas break and for a really Great 2015. Paul

Q: NAL : TSX. According to yahoo's website. NAL's projected revenue Est for 12/14/14 is 858.04M. It's projected revenue Est for 12/14/2015 is 994.56M. It's Est growth Est for 12/14/14 is 11%, it's Est growth for for 12/14/15 is 30%
It's growth Est for the next five years is 22.5% with a five year PEG of .80
All the numbers look good and it's not more than twice growth. I compared to same numbers to Canadian Oilsands, to my surprise the numbers tell me NAL : TSX is way better. What are your thoughts.

Q: energy complex
I am heavily invested in the oil, gas, services and pipelines.
I would like your cometary oil prices as it pertains to the below areas:
1. cost of and continued use of gasoline additives and their impact?
2. economic lift to large economies from low oil prices and how that may influence demand?
3. how current prices might influence supply and how fast ?
4. supply disruption due to instability and political factors in many producing countries ?
5. how much supply will be deemed not profitable at $60 oil.
6. other then the weather where do you see NG prices long term 93 years) especially in light of NLG projects in North America
bottom line do you feel that oil price will be at a reasonable and sustainable $70- $80 when and why?
thanks

Q: How is that no analyst ( to my knowledge) covering the oil and gas sector was able to predict the substantial imbalance between supply and demand of oil which lead to the ensuing collapse? The information was out there. Merry Christmas

Q: Can you provide an update on your opinion of Enerplus? I have owned it since 2011 and have a significant unrealized loss. My question is should I sell for tax loss reasons (as I have a gain to offset) or just sell and get out altogether given its performance? The yield has been pushed up to 9.5% and I have 100% track record of incurring perm losses on stocks with yields that have risen above 10%. I have enough allocation in the O&G sector and would like to allocate to a mining/materials ETF (any recommendations?) where I have very little in that sector. Thanks again and enjoy the holiday break! Regards - John
