Q: I continue to hear analyst after analyst talk about the Canadian energy sector in a positive light. They recommend companies like CNQ, SU, TOU, WCP etc. over and over again with very little upside ever showing up. The overall index has been virtually flat for 3 years despite all the table pounding from analysts.

I would love to hear 5i's take on the energy sector in Canada in general and when/if you see it breaking out and providing some bigger gains than have been seen in recent years.

Any explanation on what is holding this sector down, what needs to happen to see a breakout, would you be buyers of the sector at these multiples, do you have specific favourites - these are all questions I would love to hear your opinion on.

Thanks for all the great info you provide through this service - it has been a life-changer for me!

Q: Hi 5i Team - I have held Tourmaline for several years and although the dividend payouts have been good, the capital appreciation part has not. I am thinking of switching to CNQ, either partially or completely. Could you provide your thoughts on this strategy. Thanks.

Q: Hi, after holding CVE for awhile and being under water, I'm finally nearly breaking even. After the new MEG deal, I wonder what people might think about selling it to get into other 'growthier' stocks long-term (like SHOP, LMN, PRL, for example, but open to other ideas as well).
Thank you!

Thank you

Q: Tenaz was a top pick this week on BNN Market Call and Bruce Campbell made some compelling argument. I see three past 5i responses to members questions spaced about a year apart that all seemed generally favourable with the small cap/commodity cyclicality risk noted. Since the last of those comments was about a year ago, can I ask for the annual update? (I note the stock popped about 5% at the time of broadcast). Thanks.

Q: I have held MX for a few years and watched it bounce up and down and have never been smart enough to take advantage of its cyclicality and sell on its way up. Its currently at the lower end of its trading band. If it were you, would you wait for the next leg up to sell and move into CNQ or would you make the trade now? My hesitancy is that MX would appear to have a much higher short/medium term potential than CNQ and I would hate to miss that,

Thanks
Scott
