Q: Hello,
Would like your opinion on the proposed merger of TGL and VAALCO Energy. As a current holder of TGL, I'm wondering what I should do? I've done quite well with this company and it pays an attractive dividend. Would you sell at this point, or have your shares converted to VAALCO... if in fact the merger does take place.
Appreciate your input. Thank you,
Tom

Q: Hi 5i
I own both TVE and WCP and have done OK with each. However, except from what might be available from those two holdings I don't have any exposure to natural gas, a commodity that is getting lots of attention these days. To remedy that, I'm considering parting ways with TVE and hooking up with BIR.
In your opinion, is natural gas production worthy of pursuit at present and, if so:
(1) is BIR a good vehicle for that pursuit and
(2) on strictly a growth basis would you expect BIR to outperform TVE over the next year or so, and why or why not?
Thanks and I look forward to your response.

Q: What is your view and what might be a good exit point? Does it still have room to run? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i

I have too many stocks and am starting to pare back. I have these five stocks in Energy. Which two would you sell? To which stock(s )would you add the cash from the sale.

Thanks for the excellent advice. It is so comforting to have 5i to ask questions of. It is hard to be objective sometimes when it is your own portfolio.

Q: Hello. What are your top stock recommendations in the natural gas space? Canada, US and/or international please. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i, I read an article in the Edmonton Journal Aug 17/22 by Chris Varcoe titled Alberta Left out as Natural Gas Demand soars. In my opinion Canada has mainly one customer for its oil which is the US which since oil was discovered in Canada have been buying Canadian oil for half price of the world market price per barrel. Could you explain what is the discrepancy of what US companies get for there natural gas as well as world price and what Canadian natural Gas producers receive and why.

Q: Hi team,

Looking for performing stocks with strong growth potential, and reasonable risks. What is your present evaluation of the followings: TH-Q, NEX-N, PGY-Q and ASML-Q ? Would you buy it now ? If not, what would be your favorite in the same sector ?

Have a good day,

Jacques IDS

Q: For a minimum 2 year hold please rate the above for anticipated overall return in order of preference and briefly why

Q: Hi, we have energy sector exposure through, CNQ,SU,TOU and ENB. There are several reasons for owning the sector through CDN companies, primarily for Dividend Tax credit in the Non Regd accounts and also their relatively lower risk profile and size. We have not invested in US Oil, and Gas/Pipeline companies, except a small holding in XLE.

CNBC guests/traders, frequently recommend the US companies listed in the question and it appears that all these stocks are doing well. ( OXY - with 20% ownership with Warren Buffet }. My question is that, in Canada, do we have Energy companies with similar product/business profiles to these US names. And, if so, for a Balanced 5i Portfolio risk profile investor, is the sector well represented with these four CDN companies ? Current Portfolio Weight: CNQ/SU/TOU: 9% ENB:6% Total-15%.

Thank You

Q: Can I please have your thoughts on this fund to add exposure to the Energy sector. What is your outlook on the sector currently say 1-3 year outlook.
Thank you!

Q: Thoughts on the news today with Phillips. Is it material to the company?

Thx

Q: What are your top picks in the Canadian energy sector? And why?

Thanks very much

Q: Hey 5i: I am overweight with whitecap and down 5% in the 9$ range ,could use for tax loss but like the dividend. Would definitely sell at 10$ but also would be fine breaking even because I may need this money in the next 8months to a year.With this in mind do you like it as a hold considering needing the money is not a certainty. Tough call but appreciate your input.Tks. Larry

Q: How does CHK's dividend sustainability, improved debt situation and general outlook compare to other dividend-paying energy companies worldwide?

Q: What are your top 3-5 of picks in small/mid cap Canadian O&G stocks? I'd also appreciate your thoughts on holding periods.

(Eric Nuttal seems to think they will do well for quite a while yet, though he seems to always be bullish - or maybe just talks his book...)
