Q: For a growthy TFSA contribution for 2024, I’m considering one of these companies. Please rank based on potential gains for a 3-5 year period, with a brief comment on each one. Moderate to high(ish) risk (like SHOP) is fine with me.

Also, are there any other companies you’d recommend I consider and why.
Thanks for such a great service.

Q: Hello,

Can you rank CNQ, SU and Toumaline in order of preference for overall returns? If owning only one which would be your choice? Is the recent pullback in prices a good opportunity to buy into the sector or should a person stay on the sidelines for a bit to see how the economy slows in the next half year? This is for a new account so no position yet. Income with some growth preferred. Please take credits as needed. Thank you! Great service.

Q: To what extent is the comparatively higher sell off in Canadian oil & gas producers attributed to Guilbault's promise to cap our Canadian production as a green initiative. How serious is this recent Trudeau government threat coming out of COP28 in Dubai? I hold TOU and CNQ but it is an energy general question.

Q: I wish to make my holdings in the energy sector more resilient to market turmoil and retain those holdings that have strong economic fundamentals plus pay a reasonable dividend. Can you recommend any that represent a good entry at this time.

Q: I have a full position in Tourmaline, and have held it for a few years. I am concerned about it's falling stock price. Is there a compelling reason for this, and should I lighten up on the stock?

Q: Hi, Energy sector has been weak for past few months, for a variety of reasons. Oil and NG prices have been drifting lower and OPEC keeps sending mixed signals. US sanctions on Russia have only produced a muted response, with their Oil finding its way to India, China and many other countries. Oil is hovering back to $70 level and still there is no sign of US ready to fill in their SPR. After a strong 2021 and 2022 (and 1st half of 2023), do you think, current weakness could be temporary and it's just a short term breather ? Or, considering the cyclic nature of the sector ( possible recession concerns ) and history, it might be time to take some profits and reduce the sector weight, from your generally suggested 10% to say 5% ? If so, would you trim equally or in any order among these holdings ? Thank You

Q: Can you recommend a few other Canadian value stocks like SLF, with a low P/E, good dividend and little or no debt - it would appear that SLF has a net of about $74B in cash.
Thanks!

Q: I intend to use as many losing companies such as above POU, RY, TOU and MG (presently underwater) against a significant amount of capital gains to reduce my taxes for 2023. I will probably buy them back in the new year. What is wrong with this approach? Please explain.
Thank you.

Q: I currently hold CVE and TOU and want to add a pipeline to round out my holdings in the energy sector. Which pipeline company would you recommend?

thanks,
Paula

Q: In the energy sector, I’m wondering which of TOU or WCP that you’d favour. I know that you have been recommending both but I’d like to sell one and buy more of just one.

Q: Hi Team
Which of WCP or TOU would be best for a long term hold in a LIF account?
Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

From this list of 9 stocks to own in a RRSP for 10+ years, how would you rank them in terms of starting a position today?

Thanks again for the great work that you do.

Q: Hello,
I own above stocks, and with the current conflict in the middle east, which one(s) would you add to today? assuming oil hovers around current price of ~ $ 80.00.
Also, which ones are rumored for a take over?
As well, which ones have the strongest financials to grow the dividend?

Thanks
Carlo

Q: Hello, Can I please have your top Cdn or U.S. energy stock choices. Could you please compare them and advise if you have a preference and rank them accordingly for a 3 year hold. What are your thoughts on Enbridge within this group?
Thank you.
