Q: T:EGL.UN - EAGLE ENERGY TRUST
I have owned eagle from the IPO. They claim that they are unjustly treated like the other cross border plays (argent and parallel)who debt levels are very high and have cut their dividend)according to them they have a ratio of 1.5 which is considered reasonable. They claim that they will meet guidance and not cut the dividend. Is there any reason to question their claims and would you sell now? any comments regarding eagle would be appreciated especially with respect to the management.
thanks again .

Q: Hello Peter- Could you please rank in order of your preference, Whitecap, Tourmaline, Surge and Delphi in order of total return, using your ABC grading.

Q: Hi 5i team,

Assuming a balance portfolio, I was thinking about switching CGI Group for either Surge or Whitecap resources. Although in very different sectors, I am looking to switch into a company with more growth. CGI is cheap on a valuation basis, but doesn't seem to have current momentum.

Your thoughts and suggestion is much appreciated.

Regards,

Q: Bought BNP a few years ago for gas exposure when it was a market darling with an attractive dividend. The dividend, while still attractive, was cut and the share price has been a roller-coaster ride and I'm still down 7%. I'm considering switching and as it's in a taxable acct I can use the tax loss. Can you suggest a couple of stocks with a good and hopefully growing dividend with some capital upside. I'm retired so the dividend is important.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I'm looking to add an energy stock to my TFSA holdings (which currently include AYA, ENB, BNS, T, and STN). I've seen you recommend BAD, SGY, and TOU and have also been seeing various articles suggesting SU might be a good purchase given that it's relatively inexpensive at the moment.

Do you have a preference between any of these four?

Q: I would appreciate your comparison of Enerplus (ERF) and Whitecap (WCP). I have done well by ERF but RBC's recent downgrade on the basis of its price appreciation makes me wonder if the growth prospects for WCP might be appreciably better. There would be no tax consequences to me of making such a switch and the dividends are similar. I look forward to your reply.

Q: Eric Nuttall just trashed Surge Energy and Bellatrix Exp. as being 'un-investible' companies, while at the same time highlighted EnCana and Tourmaline Oil as his top picks, both of which are owned by Sprott (the company he works for)....is this good advice, or the type of conduct that caused you to create 5i? Thanks as always...

Q: Bellatrix (BXE). I am down 18% on this company. I know they did a bought deal at $9.50 and that it was reduced. Is it more volatile because it does not pay a dividend and shorts don't have to cover the dividend? Should I continue to hold or buy more or wait. It is dragging down the rest of my portfolio.

Q: Bankers Petroleum (BNK)had a sudden price drop today, followed by a rebound. The volume of shares being traded is six times than the average normal. There was a trading halt today, followed by resumption. The company is having an investor day conference in Toronto, followed by another one in London. The company seems to be doing all the right things. The stock is up 70% from the time I bought it. Should I hold or sell it here.

Q: Greetings, Peter & Co.
I appears that my previous question did not reach you so I will resubmit it and add another to it, if I may.
1. I am looking to profit from the aging 'boomers' by investing in a healthcare REIT. One possibility that I have found is Northwest Healthcare (NWH.UN)which has a very decent yield. What is you opinion of this stock? Would you recommend an alternative?
2. I would appreciate you analysis of Spartan Energy (SPE.V). Is it a buy at $4.00?
Thank you for your invaluable service to small retail investors.
