Q: Hello Peter et al.

Furthermore to my question I asked on this company on Jan 31st after their plans to delist from the TSXV and be only listed on the LSE AIM to save costs I have some other enquires.

I have currently been employing a strategy to consolidate all of my shares into one account - my RRSP account prior to the delisting to limit the impact of the higher brokerage fee of $250 vs. $9.99 currently. I still believe in this company and believe in the long term hold of another 2 to 3 years and I will be rewarded.

However, I have been reading that the LSE AIM is not an exchange that is allowed to be used for RRSPs or TFSAs. Because of this if I hold this stock in my RRSP I will have to pay a monthly penalty of 1% of the capital value of the stock. Are you aware of this or can provide any advice?

I assume I can hold it in a regular stock account and pay no penalty.

Any advice will be appreciated. I plan to also ask my discount brokerage about this as well.

Regards,

Brendan

Q: Hi 5I,
The above names are all owned in my TFSA. Of these, I am underweight in COV, IWO, PHO, SDX, SYZ AND VB. I've got some cash to put to work with a long term objective. With consideration to the sector weighting, and my under weights, would you recommend I top up on any at this time or maybe introduce a completely different name or names to the portfolio? Thanks!

Q: Why has there been such a huge drop in the share price over the last few trading sessions? I can’t find any company specific news. Does it have to do with the uncertainty in the market due to the Saudi situation since it operates in Egypt? Oil price has dropped but not as much as the stock price of TGL.

Sdx stock price has acted similarly and both appear cheap. Is it worth buying a little more of both or wait for more positive momentum?

Thanks,


Brendan

Q: Maybe - we're really going to see a sustained positive - ongoing movement in the Cdn. oil patch. That said, I'm looking short term (1 yr) for a bite into several undervalued stocks, particularly where leverage is large. Would appreciate your comments on these in order of preference as well as any others. Thank you.

Q: Hello Peter et al.

What is your viewpoint on SDX Energy at the moment? I have noticed that Josef Schachter has been on BNN lots of times promoting this stock. I see the benefit of it as well but I don’t agree with his prognosis of gas stocks in Canada being way undervalued and a good investment opportunity. His past picking history does not bode well in my opinion and because he likes SDX so much it concerns me. The company has no debt, lots of cash. Every well is a discovery in the last 6 morning months to a year. They are getting great prices for their gas in Morocco and Egypt. What is not to like!!! Am I missing something here?

Regards,


Brendan

Q: Could you please rank these stocks for growth assuming the sector ever improves.
Could you also do another list of just the dividend payers ranking income strength (safe and/or growing divi)

Thanks.

Do you know anything about MEA Energy Investment? Successful investing record? Passive/active? (Any history of buyouts?) AND - do we know what they paid?

Q: I have held Surge Energy for a good while and I am currently down about 45% on it. It is about 2.5% of my portfolio. My only other energy holding is SDX which currently is about 3% of my portfolio. I am thinking about selling Surge and going into SDX as it has more momentum even though it has higher risk. Surge released their earnings to not much hooplah. I like the dividend with Surge and the oil price has been increasing as it seasonly does during this time of year usually. Will Surge get any momentum with this oil price or should I take advantage of a company that is going to get $12/Mscf in Morocco and over $3/Mscf in Egypt?

Regards,

Brendan
