Q: Utilities. They had a strong performance in 2025. I am hearing a number of investors beating the table for utilities again in 2026 especially utilities with a strong commitment to AI.

1. Do you agree with that thesis?

2. Which 3 utility stocks CAD or USD would you recommend buying now.
3. Is there an etf that has a major composition in AI oriented utilities?

Thank you.

Q: I am assuming CPX was down Friday on heavy volume in response to Trump’s initiative to impose a cap on residential price increases, and require tech companies to pay for their own power centers . There was a concurrent selloff in independent US listed power companies as well.
How much exposure to the US market does CPX have?

Q: Could you please share your recommendations regarding my energy sector investments? I feel like I have too many and some may be overlapping. Additionally, could you suggest a few investments inside this sector that are currently not being covered?

I aim for a balanced approach with a mix of growth and income, intending to hold these investments for more than two years.

Thank you,

Q: Greetings:
The question from Irwin on Jan 9 induced me to do considerable research. On the surface it appeared that if gas prices cooperated, combined with being the largest explorer on the island of Trinidad, they could do well. Then I found that they are serial issuers of shares, and with the consequent dilution, little gain to be had. Sounds like the old Crescent Point. Past year dilution 37.3%, and more to come. If gas remains soft these shares will be 12 cents by March 31, 2026. Your assessment please.

Thanks,
Ben.

Q: This news was released today. I'm wondering first if these would be a good, safe investment to buy? And also, what sort of impact, if any, issuing these will have on the stock?

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

I came across this article over the weekend via a Lance Roberts’ “Real Investment Advice” website’s “Daily Market Commentary” post on it Jan. 7th.  The title is a bit meh, but the key detail to me I pulled from the article is that the Pentagon has elevated critical minerals to the same strategic priority tier as ammunition and fuel. The US already has access to enough oil elsewhere.

Please share with other members if you feel it has enough truth to it.

Thank you & Happy New Year,

Sandra
