Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: What are your thoughts on this company? As it recently finished a bought deal at $1.9 w/ strong interest and with good prospects on the natural gas turbines for O&G sites along with potential access to mining industries it seems it has good head winds for these cheaper and environmentally-friendly solutions.


One risk seems to be their over reliance on their turbine manufacturer where they have an agreement for Western Canada but nowhere else as of now.

With >35% insider ownership and a consistent shift away from pure oilfield services, what are your thoughts on starting a position? If so, what is a good entry point?

Q: Happy New Year 5i.

I want to add $14000 of Canadian small caps to the two TFSAs in my family. I'm looking at adding two of VHI, ZDC, MDA, and E in equal amounts. Can you rank them in order of preference with a brief explanation? Thanks.

Q: I'm evaluating these 4 microcaps, I'd like to add to add a small position in the one that has the most potential for returns. Ignoring the risk of these being very small market caps. Can you rank these in order that you would buy if you were looking for a microcap with big potential? Or if you would avoid any of them all together you can say so. Thx

Q: Hi team,
Looking at this company's latest report with the oil sector being out of favour is it a good time to accumulate shares for the next 2 to 3 years? According to management the book value of the ice is one dollar.Some are predicting a four year bull cycle in oil ,but difficult to see with others predicting a recession in 2020 with oil prices that could hit 30$ What are you thoughts?
Many thanks,
Jean

Q: Cathedral Energy Services (CET) and Enterprise Group (E)

The above two companies are two very small contrarian bets on a recovery in the energy market within my portfolio that are becoming smaller everyday. I am looking at consolidating the two holdings into a single one. Cathedral seems to have smart management, communicates well with its shareholders and is working on managing their balance sheet during the downturn. On the other hand, Enterprise has had some recent "C" suite insider buying. Should I maintain both positions, or consolidate into one? If I consolidate into one, which one do you like better and why?

Thanks!
