Q: I sold PEY on a covered call. what NG company or companies might replace it for DIV. and quality of the company

Q: I know it's not exactly apples to apples, but would you view a swap from AQN to CNQ is a likely net positive 1/5/10 years out? This is for the 'stable' part of my portfolio - some growth but dividends and overall steadiness. Could also consider ENB or FTS (already own BIP). . Thanks in advance. - Jeff

Q: Up to mid 2019, this stock was cruising on a gradual increase, then it doubled over the next 18 months. Now, some 38 months later, it is approaching where it was before it's 18 month growth spurt. I believe that you said the stock benefitted from increased interest in green energy, and that now that interest has waned. Would there be any more to describe the drop of some 42% over the past 3 years? Do you think the 6.3% dividend will be cut again? Thank you very much for your valuable perspective.

Q: Hi Team

I own ath bte tve, I bought them during the dark days of the oil patch, my big purchase was ath, I averaged down from
$ .60 to $.12, at the bottom I thought it was over, anyways as the price moved up I starting selling, just happy to escape with my life. I have a little left, but as it has gone up so much I don't think there is more upside left in another stock, thinking about buying more tve or bte, what do you think, or do you have other oil's that have decent upside?

thanks

Q: A while back I asked about your top picks in the water solutions space, and I recently came across this new one. It's quite small, and seems focused on the Oil and Gas sector. Could you give me your thoughts on it as a small cap hidden gem? How does it compare to a company like HPS in terms of its growth phase?

Q: High volume trading on Feb 29th, 45M shares traded hands, I couldn't find anything in INK research, any Sites you visit that know what caused the spike?

Q: Would you consider ENB an energy or utility stock?
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
I am considering purchasing BEP:US to meet my P.A. targets for both Sector (Utilities) and Geography (U.S. & International).
In researching BEP, all I could find was one pie chart that indicated its geographical footprint as being 50% U.S., 35% Canada, and 15% Brazil.
While this will work for me, my question is "how accurate is that as a geographical breakdown?" It seems to be all I could find.
Can you offer any other suggestions for Utilities with a greater U.S./International bent? U.S.-denominated is preferred - as is a comparable dividend...
Many thanks for any insights you may have.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: hello I have a half position in ALA that is finally back to even - what is 5iii s thoughts on a switch to ENB for + income and better future capital appreciation ?

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

I have held ZRE for some time for the dividend and now have a capital depreciation over 15%. Should I hold this? Sell? And if I should sell and take the loss, what would you recommend for a good dividend ETF with minimal MER & volatility?

Thanks for all you do

Q: Is PXT's full year results and forecast as bad as the market reaction? Please provide your insight, thanks.

Q: I would appreciate your assessment of Athabasca's recent quarter. The 8 year tax exemption and approximately 100 year oil reserve life reported must be unusual when compared to other oil companies. Thanks 5i

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm looking for guidance respecting TVE, which I've owned for quite a long time. I feel my investment is basically near dead money, treading water just to stay afloat - but I freely admit I'm not knowledgeable enough about the O&G world to properly analyze future prospects of a company based on amount and location of reserves, BOE/day etc. etc.
I've read your answers to recent past questions about TVE, and know you think it's a takeover candidate, with the acquirer paying around a30% premium.
CIBC has a target price on the stock of $4.50. Morningstar's fair value is $4.89 and CFRA rates it a strong sell with every criterion it applies being negative, except valuation which it pegs at "neutral". National Bank meanwhile rates it an outperformer with a target of $6.50. So it seems those experts are pretty much all over the map. Meanwhile all I know for a fact from my personal involvement is that TVE has done precious little to reward shareholders either in terms of capital appreciation or dividends (compared to others out there like WCP et al) for quite some time. Even having bought and held since April of 2020 hasn't led to much compared to many others in the sector.
After that longwinded preamble my questions are:
- Am I justified in thinking that the likelihood of meaningful capital appreciation and/or dividend returns in the next year or so is quite remote, and
- Based on your experience what would an acquirer pay for outstanding shares? Would it be the 30% premium you mentioned in a previous answer, so about $4.55/share or have I misunderstood you?
My inclination is to sell and be done with it because I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel except the speculative chance of TVE being acquired and there are lots better places to put one's TFSA money.
I would sure appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Peter
