Q: US Natural Gas price are very depressed and I'm looking at a fund called US Natural Gas Fund (UNG). If natural gas price go higher, I assume the fund price should increase. I would hold the fund for a few months and expect to make money if US Nat Gas prices are higher when I sell. However, my question is .... is UNG a fund like HOU where the price being reset everyday and someone could hold the fund for a few months and could lose money even if the US Natural Gas goes price. Thanks MMD

Q: My question is about the Enbridge preferred share ENB.PF.V. I received notice that I have the option to convert my cumulative redeemable preference shares, series 5 to series 6. The series 6 annual dividend rate is 6.7%. If I do not exercise this option then the preferred shares will remain as series 5. The letter I received does not state the consequence of not exercising my option. I’m guessing that if I keep my series 5 preferred shares then the annual dividend rate will remain at 5.4%. Is that correct? Thanks … Cal

Q: Morning 5i,
I woke up to an unpleasant news release this morning, that being GXE announcing that its strategic review has come to an end with nothing - absolutely nothing - to show for it.
I've been holding a substantial number of GXE shares at a considerable loss, waiting for the review to conclude in the hope there would be news that would put me in a better position. However, just like the CTS strategic review debacle, it seems to have led nowhere., and quite possibly just further reduced shareholder value.
It appears that none of the producers out there with bags of cash think the GXE assets are worth adding to their stables, so how can they be worth much?
Is there any light in this tunnel and I just can't see it, or is GXE destined to languish at its current very low share price for a long time to come, (especially given the apparent likelihood that even $90 oil, if we ever see it again, is a long way off)?
Dump it and move on, or hold to see if there's any upside that the market identifies out of this colossal waste of time that I'm presently unable to discern?
Thanks 5i.
Peter

Q: What is your current view on TPZ over the next 12-15 months?
Research that I have seen seems to indicate positive growth expectations over the next year but I am not convinced that the markets are viewing the company in the same way. I own the shares, being down slightly, and I am debating whether to continue holding the shares or to sell? Your thoughts please. Thanks.

Q: Hi guys at 5 i's

I know that nat gas prices are in the doldrums and if this mild winter continues nat gas is not going to get much of a bid. But Tourmaline TOU is getting down into the mid $50 again and the last year or more whenever it gets back down there it usually doesn't take long to go back to the mid $60's. I own a core position in TOU because of the dividends and the chance that if nat gas goes up for some reason (problems in exporting LNG from Qatar/freaky cold weather, etc.) that TOU will rock upwards. Still I am tempted to trade some additional shares of TOU. I was doing that with ARX but sold out of ARX in the $21.50 range not long ago and I am waiting for a under $20 share price on ARX to get back in. Where do you think TOU might bottom out if nat gas stays low all year because I can't see it going much below the mid $45 range.

Q: I have been noticing that more so than ever questions have been directed to you in regards to energy related stocks as opposed to tech, do you think that is a reflection of sentiment shifting towards value vs growth from the retail end?

Q: I own these energy stocks and some are on the plus side and others are on the losing side. I've been waiting for quite some time for the Chinese economy to take off, but it seems to go nowhere ? I would like to trim some of my holdings. Please place them in order of what you would keep down to some you would let go. Maybe you could code them as 10 being the best and 1 as being the worst. Thanks.
