Q: Hi,I don't see a report on these companies since 2015, are you working on an updated report? Also I thought there was a report on GUD and HWO but they are not coming up on my symbol search. I could of sworn there was one on GUD. Thanks for all your help, I like how the reports are more detailed.

Q: I am so far under water on BDI that I am tasting mud, and a little bit underwater on PD. I am thinking about taking the loss on BDI and dumping whatever pennies I get back into PD as a means to tidy up my portfolio. (I also own small positions in VET, WCP, and SGY - all under water as well.) Does this seem like a reasonable approach for someone with a reasonably long time horizon and a belief that the world is going to need oil for quite a few years yet - even if only as a feedstock for other processes?

Thanks - and congrats on the new baby. Exciting times in at least one 5i household!

Q: Hi,
I have a few thousand dollars to put into something looking for high potential growth. I have many years I can wait, don't need income (but all drips available are being utilized). Without considering portfolio weightings which of these would you consider to have the most upside? I'm totally ok with risk, as I have the well balanced, safer part of my portfolio in place. If not any of these could you offer a few other names please. If you like the names I've listed could you rank them in order of preference for high growth?

Thanks!

Q: What are your thoughts on these? With more pipelines likely going through under Trump, pipeline service/camp companies will likely have a great upside. Is here something similar that you would recommend instead? Which of these do you prefer since I think they're fairly similar (correct?)

Thanks!

Q: THe weekend edition of the Wall Street Journal reported that US oil producers have issued 2017 budgets that call for dramatically greater spending to tap new wells. Can you suggest some Canadian companies, small mid or large cap that may experience a direct material benefit?

Q: Good morning,

I have been following BDI for a while. I know that they have raised money for a price higher than the current stock price. Also, they have serious debt to take care off and have cut their dividend twice already. Last Monday, they introduced a Drip program for dividend payout. Is this good news or bad news? Explain to me what the drip program will do the share price and how it will affect the current shareholders?

Thank, you

Paul

Q: Hello 5I team.
I have positions in both BDI Black Diamond and HWO High Artic Energy. My average cost for BDI is $17.98 and the average cost for HWO is $3.75. Both positions are worth between $5k-10K and are part of my energy services portion of the portfolio. I am considering my options presently in regards to consolidating to one name or adding (3K) to either one. I am traditionally a long term holder and I am thinking I would like to bring down the cost of my BDI shares but maybe HWO is a better choice overall? Please advise me what you might do in this matter.
Thanks Jeremy

Q: Thinking long term on the themes of infrastructure spending, recent pipeline approvals, (with maybe more to come in the US), and projections for crude to stabilize in around ~$60/barrel, do you see any tailwinds for BDI assuming they can keep the balance sheet clean? If not BDI, any other recommendations for companies providing support services to future infrastructure spending?
