Q: I have a fairly large holding of O&G stocks and the recent sell off in the O&G sector have been devastating to my portfolio. However, I know (at least I think I know) which ones are resilient and can bounce back over time, except for one - DEE.

Right now I'm down over 40% on this name while all others have shown various degrees of recovery already, especially today. In fact DEE is the only O&G stock I own that is in the red for today.

Is DEE a lost cause and should be my first tax loss selling for 2014? Or should I at least wait for the Q3 results and the accompanying forward guidance to see if there is still a chance for a turn around.

Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter & team,
I already have 10% of my portfolio in O & G stock and do not wish to go higher. In this context do you consider cfw,tcw frc ses, pd & tdg in the same group or is their movement pattern different? Any reason why the are up/flat today while O & G
stocks are significantly down?
If Oil & Gas stays at $80/85 & < $4 respectively, will demand for their services decline? Would PD & TDG suffer more than the other 4 with prices as above? Finally considering that they are still down 30% from peak would you consider any of them worth
buying & if so your preference or any other similar stock that
you like?
Thank you for your guidance.
Tony

Q: This stock was beaten up badly during the last six weeks, as well DTX has more or less been a "flatline" case for about the whole year prior to the latest sell off.

Is DTX a good bottom fishing candidate, now that it has been beaten down enough, with perhaps some catalyst from the upcoming Q3 results and forward guidance?

Thanks.

Q: After the recent correction most oil and gas companies have recovered to some extent. However Tourmaline continues its downward drift. Is it company related or the outlook for natural gas? A second question if i may - I have some loose change in my RRSP and have been dithering between QST and PRW. Which would you recommend after today's price jump? Thanks

Q: What is your opinion of this stock? It is an Action List Buy according to TD yet it has had significant erosion in stock value regardless of recent correction. Today it was downgraded from Buy to Hold according to Analysts consensus.
Thx for your support.

Q: Do you have any advice about a convertible debenture from Ivanhoe Energy which matures in June 30, 2016? I was advised to buy it as a new issue in June 2011 at $100. The current price in my listing is $23. My online trading system does not recognise the symbol to sell it. What is best to do?

Q: Hi team
When you say you would be comfortable with a 15 to 20 percent weighing in energy in a portfolio is that a percentage of total portfolio? For example with $700,000 portfolio $100,000 allocated to oil and gas stocks is adequately diversifying the portfolio with the rest in all different sectors. Thanks.
