Q: Hi Peter,
What are my rights, if any, to ask and expect honest answer from a company where I am a shareholder? For example, am I permitted to call a person in charge of investor relations of a corporation and ask specific questions about their balance sheet or strategy or lack thereof? If I'm not satisfied with the answers in that I am rebuffed, do I have an avenue to seek assistance from a regulatory agency to discuss my experience and hence improve transparency. Thank you for your time.

Q: Hi folks,
I'm asking you to think about a bottom in oil and how this will all play out. If you put aside the gripping fear for a moment around the oil "crash", calmer heads suggest these sort of events have happened before in history many times and we have a good idea how it plays out. Peter called it by saying dividend cuts and reigning in cap ex would occur. Where do we go from here? Insolvencies? Do you think when Buffet throws one of these oil majors a hefty lifeline that were close to a bottom? Remember when he bailed out GE at $3/sh or did the same to GS at $75 share. Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: I am the poster boy for what NOT TO DO in building a portfolio . 25% of my holdings are in energy stocks ( ALA , CPG, ECA , HSE, PGF, SGY ,PPY ,TOU, WCP , SU , VET, as well as PSK, and FRU ) and probably some others. Yesterday I sold RIG at an enormous loss . I see today will be another lousy day and I am already way down on every stock I own in the oil patch ... Question : Might this carnage continue for a year or more ?... If so, which names do you suggest that I dump ? : I am 64 and retired and live off dividend income... thanks so much.
Q: Hi, if you had to choose between SUN & TOG for the future, where would you put your money?

Q: After riding 500 shares of Suncor all the way to $47 and then back down again to my break even point ( very frustrating) it must be getting close to buy again? Do they have huge problems in the oil sands or is it all market related? Should I switch to gold stocks. I have often heard that when oil goes down gold starts to move ie that oil and gold move in opposite directions.
Q: I hold approximately 900 shares of both CNQ and Suncor and have a profit on both. As you know both have been dropping significantly in the last several weeks. Given the low global oil prices would you recommend that I sell my positions or add on this weakness.
Q: I have about 21% of our portfolio in oil with full positions in HSE,BTE,CPG,WCP,SU and a half position in SGY. Today's paper had a column in the business section disparaging the oil sands. So I am considering selling SU, increasing SGY to a full position and adding one more oil. We rely on dividends for 50% of our income, so - 1. What is your opinion of SU? 2. If I do sell SU, can you recommend another decent energy stock.
Q: SU.to
Peter,
In your view. Do you feel that SU would be trading higher if all the cash used for buyback was returned to shareholders with dividend increase instead?
Many thanks

Q: I currently own Suncor,CNQ, Cenovus, I purchased these a few years ago, and watched them go down, SU is up $5.00 CNQ break even, CVE down $5.00. Should I sell these now, and what would be a replacement?
Q: Hello 5i,
My question has to do with two companies that you have mentionned in question and answer. Suncor and IBM. You don't seem very positive towards either company. I suppose we are all under the mystique of someone like Warren Buffet and I have to say that it puzzles me that Mr. Buffet has chosen these two companies in a portfolio that does not have a lot of names. We would appreciate your take on that. Also, would you sell Suncor and buy something like Surge Energy in the current context?
thanks

Q: Suncor stock price seems to simply hover, despite many positive analyst comments. What is your view of Suncor (SU), as well as Sherritt (S)? Thank you.
Q: I bought Suncor (SU) a few years ago and it went down about 40%, but this year it is doing much better. I'm only down about 13% and it is continuing to improve. Do you think I should continue to hold this long term or should I be swapping it for another stook in the same sector like tourmaline?

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
I would like to add a Large Cap Energy Company to my portfolio and I'm considering SU, HSE, CNQ. They are all trading at similar prices. Can you recommend one of these? Open to any other suggestions.
Thanks,Brenda

Q: Hello Peter and team. I want to add a Canadian integrated oil/gas player to my portfolio. Any recommendations? I am thinking of Suncook energy, your thoughts. Thank you
Q: Michael Bowman on BNN today suggested selling Suncore and buying Eog Resources. His rational is that the Americans will be self sufficient in oil by 2015. He also said that the Americans will not want or need our "TAR Sands. Any comments?

Q: Hello Peter and team I’m rebalancing my portfolio to 20 stocks. I have two energy stocks COS down - 7% and a half position in ERF down -24 %. I thinking of adding TOU and as for ERF would you recommend talking a full position in ERF or selling ERF? In the utilities I have BEP.UN, ENB and IPL. I’m in for the long term.

Q: Hi Peter:
I have owned shares in SU, CNQ, CVE for awhile (over 2 years);
recently, Suncor has been outperforming the rest
I also noted that the volume of Su in NYSE has also been very active, one of the commentators at BNN said that street consensus is $ 42
Could I have your insight why SU is outperforming the rest and is the target of $ 42 is achievable in the short term of within 6 months ? thanks
