Q: While I am very overweight oil & gas producers I am not concerned as I bought several of these at under $1 which explains the overweight position. However, I do have capital losses on BTE and that got me thinking that maybe I should consolidate into the 3 best if I can manage the large capital gains tax. Would MEG, TVE and WCP be your choice? My only concern would be VRN which is currently a 7 bagger and I'd have to do that over time. Any comments or concerns with this or should I just continue to hold all. I do have a very large, diversified portfolio.

Q: Disappointed with the last results and what seems to be the need to be willing to accept lower growth going forward. I had hoped that the company would break out this year.
Wondering what your opinion is moving forward and especially your thoughts on the stability of the dividend. At what oil price would negative issues start to arise here?

Many thanks.

Q: The performance of these two Oil & Gas stocks have been a disappointment of late and thus far this year...
What are your thoughts on these stocks and holding them for awhile longer until gas prices increase or biting the bullet and switching to ARC Resources and TOU?
Thank you.

Q: Hello,

Thanks for all that you do.

CAP REIT has had a good run and is near my price target of $56. Do you think it still has room to run? If not, would you advise selling and picking up some VRN, or are any other beat up companies looking more attractive (I'm indifferent to the sector, but would prefer to stay away from consumer discretionary).

Thanks!

Q: Hi,

If you were to add to one's existing positions, which order would you add for medium (3 yrs) and long (3-5 yrs) term. All of them have suffered from recent pull back.

Strangely my holdings in USD seem to have suffered more than than the same holdings in CAD. For example VRN/CVE. Is this due to arbitrage trades as you suggested in one of your previous answers to another subscriber? Or due to the vagaries in currency fluctuations?

Lastly, your top picks in O&G today?

Q: Good morning,

I currently own a number of different energy stocks of which most are in the OIL sector. In this current investment environment, the Gas sector seems to offer a better risk reward ratio and I would like to better balance my Oil/Gas stock split.

Question 1. Do you agree that Natural Gas stocks currently offer a better potential return than OIL stocks over the next few years?

Question 2. If so, which of the these OIL stocks would you replace with Natural Gas stocks?

Question 3. Which Natural Gas stocks are currently your best ideas?

Thank you for your sage advice.

Q: Hi Guy,

Just wanted to get your thought on Eric Nutall's take on the oil market on BNN yesterday.

He believed that more specialized companies (top picks were BTE, CPG, PD) were more promising than generalized companies like CNQ and ENB.

I value your opinion and would be happy to spend more points for a more detailed answer., especially on CNQ and CVE.
