Q: Hello, I am up 50% on this stock. Is there good mid to long term potential with this stock at this current price? I am also trying to reduce my portfolio volatility. For example, AW.UN is low volatility to me, whereas EGLX is high volatility. I would be happy to hold SCL if you think this stock has mid to long term potential and with volatility that leans towards AW.UN than EGLX. Thank you.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
SCL just reported 3Q results and are down 16%...were they that bad? Also I realize they are making structural chances. So what do you think about there future in the next couple of years? Are they in big trouble because they service fossil fuel? Thanks!

Q: Greetings 5i team.

In looking at Q's archives, I do not see a question that required a review of current state of affairs.
May I please have your retroactive views on SCL's Aug/21 results and outlook? Please also include the earnings estimates coming up in Nov/21 and advise if you see value in the equity of SCL.

Many thanks for your assessment.

Q: I am a "buy and hold" long term investor. I have held these stocks for over five years on the assumption that at least one of the pipelines would be built and the stocks would regain at least some of their losses. Of course that hasn't happened. With the Covid-19 situation I am concerned about a serious downturn in the economy during the next 18 months. As these stocks are already extrememly low, I am wondering if they will survive, let alone improve, during the next year or so. Based on income, debt levels, and future prospects, please rank each company according the possibility of failure.

Q: Good afternoon!
I have a substantial funds from recent gains that need a home. Taking note of Benj Gallander's thoughts to buy in December after tax-loss selling, are there candidates that you might recommend for purchase if they do drop? In particular, I would prefer dividend payers in the order of 5% or near to that - more if feasible!
Thanks!

Q: Hey guys ! I own both SCL.CA and MTL.CA since many years, roughly 3% of my total portfolio, I am down between 40-50 %. Like many of your subscribers, I am not very confident for the future of energy in Canada and I am seriously thinking to pull the plug on both. What would you recommend ? wait until the next earnings or flush now.
thank you !
