Q: So is the sell off overdone? I vowed never again to let a position drop more than 25 per cent before I bailed and I am getting close to that mark. Move on to a better opportunity while there is still some capital left?

Q: Regarding Cash Flow and oil and gas stocks....as a general rule of thumb and assuming reasonable growth prospects, at what multiple to cash flow is a company fairly valued? Obviously other factors play a part but for example TOU is trading at 13 time C/F and SGY at 7 times C/F.
Perhaps TOU has greater growth prospects but relatively speaking SGY seems quite a bit less expensive by this metric.
I am just trying to get a handle on using cash flows as a reference to determine value....

Q: Hi 5i team, I am hoping to sell one or two energy positions (hopefully not the one that you are planning to include in the model portfolio) in order to purchase SLF and EH for diversification purposes. Could you please suggest the one or two current positions that you would recommend selling from the following:

Delphi, Surge, Whitecap, Badger, HIgh Arctic, Painted Pony, Raging River, Tourmaline

Much appreciated as always!

Q: Instead of loading up on one company I have diversified across the board by owning entrec, enterprise E and petrowest PRW. Is this a good strategy? I figure bet on all three same weighing and hope one is a home run. And are all three not going to move until LNG plants are up and running? Thanks.

Q: Canacol reported its Q4 and FY2014 results on Sep. 23rd. In my opinion the numbers looked good but the stock did not get any lift to it price. Is this reaction more sector and market related or more company specific? What is your take on their results? Thanks, Gerry

Q: It's said that a buy time could be on a 10% index correction. Would that apply to individual stocks as well as the index. If so, that may make selected energy stocks a buy now.
