Q: Could you please recommend two Canadian oil companies that can survive the low oil price environment? I like to buy and hold them until prices go back up again. I do not really care about the dividend as long as the company can use the free cash flow to grow. Does SPE qualify? Thank you very much.
Q: I bought this stock back in Jan. 2013 @ .64 and it is now down to .6…….is there any reason to keep it …..hoping it may come back. Would appreciate any input on this company. Thanks
Q: What is your opinion of (a) Yangarra Resources ltd and
(ii) Ikkuma Resources Corp?
Are they high risk? Good growth potential? Would you consider tem a 'strong buy'? OR would rather buy SPE.to?
Thanks
Q: Since I am down about 50% on Surge am wondering if I should buy more to reduce my costs or go somewhere else like ATD or Parkland Fuel. Opinion please Thanks. Ernie
Q: I am thinking that the oil glut is a lot larger than prices are indicating. I base on the very unscientific observation that even with the record long term freezing temperatures in the US, the price of oil seems to actually be dropping(although apparently heating oil is up). In the past, again based only only my recollections, a weekend of cold weather seemed to cause a spike in the price of oil.
I am therefore left wondering if there is too much optimism in oil prices and are we really looking at an extreme glut? Or is all this quite quantifiable and the market probably has it right?
Q: I recently noticed that Acker Finley came out with a model price of 16.83 on this stock which is a bit shocking. Do you have any thoughts on the fair value of this company?
Q: In reference to Sheldon's question (Feb 20th) regarding the recent rise in BDI's share price. It is no doubt partially due to the tax incentives announced by Stephen Harper recently....
"The federal government is hoping to kickstart a multibillion-dollar industry that, according to one analyst, is currently suffering an anxiety attack. Speaking in B.C., Prime Minister Stephen Harper unveiled new tax breaks for investment in liquefied natural gas.
The new measures mean companies will now get a capital cost allowance of 30 per cent for LNG equipment. And 10 per cent for buildings at LNG facilities. The government projects the tax break will save the industry about $50 million over the first five years.
Another estimate says it will allow companies to write off 90 per cent of their investments in seven years, instead of 27."

Q: Held on to Legacy and Surge for too long I think. Would you sell and rotate into some stronger names you have mentioned or would you recommend holding? Thank you.
There was a surprising news release that came out last night on Mart Resources and I have been reading a lot of different speculation into it. Their CEO has been releived of his duties pending and investigation internally. He sold a lot of shares 6M from Dec to early Jan. He is in personal trouble with payments in divorce court with the judge in the UK. They have put the company under strategic review for possible sale etc. They have only just started to get production to higher levels with the new pipeline. Would you please comment on this for me. Is the shares going to crash when the market opens Monday? The uncertainty and speculation because of the strange news release might cause the share price to crater. The risk of Nigeria I guess.
Q: Do you have an opinion on this more speculative oil company? They have a fairly strong balance sheet but their best oil wells are located in northern Iraq.
Q: Peter; Reading about all the new pipelines I always see that the oil is going to Cushing, Oklahoma. Who are the refiners there receiving all this oil and are they something you would reccomend? Thanks. Rod
Q: I took a 1/2 position Dec.1st. in wcp,vet,tou and pey. So far so good. I'm considering increasing my positions and would very much appreciate you thoughts. Current energy holdings represent 7% of our equity holdings.
Thank you

Cenovus Energy Inc, Canada's No. 2 independent oil producer, said on Tuesday that it had agreed to sell 67.5 million shares to a group of underwriters as it seeks to raise about C$1.5 billion for its 2015 capital spending budget as oil prices remain weak.
