Q: I have done very well with this Company and continue to hold their shares. Following your guidance of letting your winners run!
A recent announcement is that "Shawcor sells its Shaw Pipeline Services Business to a material services company". Is there anything that is concerning about this transaction? Is this a Company you would continue to hold?
Thank you Gordo.

Q: Can you confirm for me if the price of Enbridge (ENB:CA) was above $60 in April 2015 please?

The 10 year ENB:CA chart I see on the 5i website (and on the Stockcharts website) appears to be quite different than the price chart I see in my BMO Investorline (/ Koyfin, the barcharts website, and a quick google search).

First time I’ve ever noticed something like this, so I’m just confused and wondering which chart is the correct chart to follow? Thanks for your help.

Q: From a high on Jan 2021 of $62.40 to a low on March 6, 2023 of $28.63 BEPC:CA has been constantly dropping. It just now has started to recover to $35.26. Do the fundamentals of BEPC:CA enable its position now to continue grow as such, the downtrend having been due to market flux and circumstance, or just chuck it and go for more BIP. I hold BEP, BEPC, BIP and BIPC.
Thank you for your terrific insight as always

Q: Retired dividend-income investor. We hold AQN in my wife's RRSP...held it since 2011...bought it at $5.60 and trimmed it several times over the years.

I am debating whether to flush it and take the proceeds and buy ZUT. I also own FTS, TRP and other utility-energy equities contained within ZLB and CDZ.

For the "keep AQN" argument = a) good momentum YTD = +27%, b) great chart, especially with the 50 mda overlay, c) if there is a take-over of AQN, there is a probable premium of "who knows "% (30%?).

For the "flush AQN" argument = a) with other planned cash injections throughout 2023, this would improve my overall sector allocations, b) minor point, but it would simplify my portfolio, by the elimination of a holding (I hold a reasonably concentrated portfolio of 12 blue chip stocks and 10 ETF's, plus fixed income), c) I thought I read that AQN is not expected to have a high rate of growth this year, d) the holdings inside ZUT look appealing, containing both renewable and non-renewable.

I am ok letting it ride for a while longer, but also ok flushing it. Your thoughts? Am I missing anything? I know you can't compare a single stock to a diversified ETF.

Thanks for your help...much appreciated...Steve

Q: Given Conocco Phillips exercised their right of first refusal on Surmount, Suncor has options to manage their cash. Their is also comments that they need to replace production so in addition to reducing debt, buying shares, acquistions could be an option. Who do you think would be a target for them?
Thanks
