Q: In the event that the price of oil falls dramatically this year, how would you rank the following six companies with respect to their ability to withstand a prolonged and precipitous decline: VII, ARX, BIR, TOG, VET, CPG ? Would any of them be cause for concern, or would you keep holding? Also, what are the main factors you take into consideration when making this kind of determination (balance sheet, market cap, oil vs gas exposure, etc)? Thanks for your reply.

Q: I am looking at making my first, (if you do not consider Interpipe) energy investment at 3 to 5% of my RRSP. Looking at the 4 stocks and note , over the past year, WCP up 20 %, SPE and RRX flat and TOG down 10%.
Has the recent noise with RRX changed your opinion ( good or bad)? Dividends are not important. Looking for the stock(s) with rising production and torque to oil prices. Please list in order of best using this criteria. Would owning 2 of these instead of one be better in this case? Thanks

Q: Hello Peter,
I am currently underweight commodities and overweight technology. What would you think of selling DSG and ENGH and buying TOG and RRX? Do you think whatever incremental return expected by this change would justify the increase in volatility and risk?
Also, what are the approx wait times in terms of weeks for a portfolio review?
Regards.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Would you be OK with switching from TOU to TOG? I realize that TOU is more of a natural gas stock compared to TOG, but I'd like to collect a dividend while 'waiting', and TOG seems to have better prospects going forward. This switch would essentially maintain our O/G sector weighting.

Thanks as always for your insight.

Q: Hi,I have Wcp that I will keep,but I also have Tog that I consider ok, for a 2.5 sector weight. For a +three year time frame,and a 2.5% + dividend would you have a better stock to switch to? Or just keep Tog. I consider management and lower debt a key factor.
Also I will be slowly adding to each as cash comes available.
Thanks,Brad

Q: I own twelve oil and gas stocks in a $2.5 million portfolio as listed above. My advisor recommends selling the first seven stocks on the list and adding to the last five positions. I'm primarily interested in capital gains with dividends being a secondary consideration. Would you recommend selling any of the first seven stocks? If so, what gas and oil stocks would you choose as replacements? Thanks for your advise.

Q: What do you think of Torc at today's prices? It's my only holding in O & G right now, at 2.8% of my portfolio, down from 5% because of the beating it's taking with the rest of the sector. Is this a good time to add ... or is it a good time to sit on my hands? I would only take it back up to 5%. If I did this, I would be selling my position in Diversified Royalty. Any thoughts on this move? Thanks for your help!
