Q: I bought Surge a few months back, and added more a month ago. My ACB is just over $6, and it makes up about 3% of my portfolio. I know you like it, and am considering increasing holdings to a full position of 4%. However, it has been a very poor performer over the last few weeks, and I have some concern that people may see it as another Crescent Point (isn't it partly the same management?) with endless new shares and dilutions. Think it is better to sit tight, or do you view it as a good buy at the current price? Please also comment on the distribution stability.
As always, thank-you

Q: I have a question about Surge Energy, SGY. From your comments and answers to other questions, you seem to like the company and speak favourably of it. My question is, SGY is not an "official" recommendation. What is it about the company that keeps you from formally recommending it? Does it have deficiencies or risks that concern you? Thanks again for your help.

Q: BTE..r and yesterday's question. My understanding is that when the deal closes BTE.r will have accumulated but unpaid dividends attached. So BTE.r already has $0.22 attached that will be paid at the close. This in the NR announcing the close of the financing but is not in the initial NR about financing.

Q: Essential Energy Services, ESN reported yesterday. Earnings per share missed estimates by 1 penny for the year. I hold this stock for the 4.5% dividend yield and expected 5 to 10% capital appreciation over the next two to three years. The balance sheet appears to be very strong and I assess the downside risk over the two to three years to be minimal. I would appreciate your assessment of my reasoning. Thanks for your help.

Q: Good afternoon 5i.
I have held CPG for several years now and while I have waited patiently for some upward movement in stock price, it continues to hover around the high $30's to $40 range. I am underwater by $2-3. I know from your comments to others that you are not a big fan of CPG. I am thinking of switching to BTE. I wouldn't give up much in yield, and I am thinking that there may be some good futurestock price value from the recent shale oil acquisition in Texas.
I'd appreciate your thoughts on this before I proceed. Brian

Q: Hi Peter and team. This is the 2nd time I heard someone mention an income portfolio. Has the 5i team published another portfolio, other than the model portfolio, I am not aware of? I remember last year you guys mentioned the possibility of starting a growth portfolio. Any updates on than front?

Lastly, I have zero oil/gas exposure. I was thinking of increasing my monthly income stream and getting a little growth as well by adding a combo of whitecap resources (wcp), torc oil and gas (tog) and surge energy (sgy). I was thinking, initially, these 3 names will collectively make up between 4% and 6% of my portfolio. Do you see anything wrong with the combination of these three names? I see torch sold off today after they released their earnings.

Thanks again and safe travels.
