Q: I own CNQ (largest position), OXY, and CHORD in my trading accounts. I am down quite a bit in CHORD since the Enerplus merger.

I don't really have that much exposure to natural gas stocks at the moment. Would it make sense to sell CHORD, claim a capital loss, and buy something like PEY, TOU, or BIR?

Q: I've doubled on FTS in a non registered account and am thinking to trim as the growth forecast looks pretty flat. I'd like to add to the names noted as I see more growth and better yields. What do you think of such a move for a long term investment, trim or just sell it all?
In what order would you rank these for for growth, income and security?

Thanks

Q: I'm looking to add some shares of PEY for more exposure to natgas with a good yield. The price has done quite well lately and I'm hesitant to buy in. I'm wondering if I should pick something else that's been a bit more beat up like BIR, or PNE. I'm a younger (39) long term investor living off of yield.

Q: DEAR 5-I:
Thanks for the information on Parex, however, there was a second part to the question. If I dispose of Parex because it is doubtful if the political situation will improve in the near term- what could you suggest for a replacement, CNQ-? already own a full position in Suncor, ARC, Baytex, Tourmaline, and TVE. How about Peyto?

Thanks, Ben

Q: BIPC has had a good run lately, do you see much more near term upside with the dividend tax credit changes? I’m thinking to switch into PEY for the greater yield and more upside once we get a change in federal gov. Also I like the ability to write some covered calls.

What are your thoughts on this trade, and do you have any insights on timing?

Q: I have only ENB in energy stocks and am looking to add a basket of stocks with at least a 5% dividend, but also looking for capital appreciation. With the dividend, I don't mind waiting for the appreciation. Do you see any red flags with any of these, and how would you make up a 5% position? Would you sub any other energy stock with a 5%+ dividend?

Q: I'm looking at PEY and FRU for dividend income, and possibly a little appreciation. Their recent price doesn't seem to be too effected by gas/oil prices going down -or are they perhaps offset by interest rates going down at the same time? Could you compare these; do you have a preference? How high a risk are they? What is a good entry point for both? Thanks!

Q: I own all three of these companies and I am doing quite well with all three. I am up 20% on BIR, 10% on PEY and way up on TOU as I bought it in the $5.00 range back in the depths of the oil and gas collapse. TOU represents 6% of my portfolio while PEY and BIR are about 1% each. I LOVE my dividends…….do I continue to hold all three or consolidate into TOU? After TOU’s takeover of CR, is one or both of BIR and PEY next?

Q: Hi there, may I please have your thoughts on PEY results?

What companies are you finding interesting right now, after their 2Q results?

Any companies unjustifiably being punished, with their shares being sold off currently, that you believe is not justified and will have a good bounce within the next six months or so? ie; seems like WELL results are being misunderstood...hmm

Thanks!
