Q: Hi Peter and Staff
Please deduct as many questions as you see fit. I have a basket of oil stocks which of course I have wished I did not own for quite a while. Monday will be brutal. My question is surrounding the fact that some of our companies have significant hedges in place at higher $ per barrel while others will not have any or many. In the event that the market torches them all on Monday equally would you please research and provide details on hedging % , period and $ for a large list below
ARX,CPG,ERF,GTE,KEL,PXT,SGY,TOG,VET,WCP,YGR

Secondly could you advise of the debt to cash flow of the worst 4 of the above and the best 4 of the above.

Please provide detailed response with as many questions deducted as you see fit.

Thanks for all you do

Q: I have been purchasing these three oil Companies this month with a view Tax Loss Selling will end on Dec 27th, Oil Prices moving UP, world economies are improving, demand for Oil will increase, China USA Tariffs will come off, Trump will remain as President may even be reelected in 2020. I expect a good rebound in Oil shares in January, February. TMP is being built perhaps other pipelines as well. Both Liberals & Conservatives want TMP to be completed.

Q: 5i
Oil represents about 5% of my portfolio and is comprised of Freehold, Vermillion, Surge and Whitecap. I cannot get a good feel as to where the price of oil is headed in the next 2 years. Appears to me there are conflicting views. Should I get out of the oil sector, invest in good dividend paying stocks that would be more stable and re enter the oil market or not at a later date. All my oil stocks do pay high dividends, are they sustainable. Appreciate your insight on both the oil market and potential stocks to invest in regardless of sector if you feel exiting the oil market may be the way to go.

Q: In a recent answer to a question on an oil company, you mentioned that it is hard to be optimistic on a company if you don't like the management team. So my question is, which of the management teams in the oil sector would you want to align yourself with, and why? Alternatively, which of the management teams would you not align yourself with? Please deduct as many credits as necessary to fully answer my question. Thank You.
