Q: My only energy holding is ENB, and I'm thinking of replacing it with something with greater growth prospects. Dividends are not too important. Are there any of the stocks listed you would suggest at this time? (Or any others??)

SU

PSX
TTE
ENB
XOM
DVN
COP

MRO

Thanks

Q: Hello 5i. Is there a difference between what US producers are receiving and what Canadian producers are receiving for natural gas. I watch BNN and I think on the top right hand side they state a natural gas price but I think this is for US producers not Canadian producers. Which if true, is misleading I think. Where would you recommend that I look for the daily price of natural gas for Canadian gas producers. .

Q: If oil were to get above $80 plus what would your top 3 producers be with high leverage to barrel price? Would Saturn be a strong consideration?

Q: Hello, we have a full position in CNQ (5%) and SU & TOU (3% combined). We also own ENB (6%). We are considering to reduce our weighting in Energy sector. We like CNQ and ENB, for their respective merits, at the two ends of the spectrum being Growth and Income and relatively stable history of stock performance. If you have to choose to sell/trim between SU and TOU, what would be your approach - Equally trim from Both or Sell one of them in full ? Based on current and likely scenario of Oil and Natural Gas prices and their balance sheet and growth/income prospects.

Thank You

Q: Good morning team,
My only exposure to the energy sector is Tourmaline and I am thinking of adding either Suncor or Canadian Natural Resources. Can you please let me know which of these two you think would be the better choice and why. If you think there is a better choice to diversify my exposure please let me know.

Thank you,
Paula

Q: I have done well on TOU but am well off the highs. The dividend is minimal and I'm wondering if you can suggest another energy company that is strong but with a decent dividend. what about CPG, for example. I have a full ENB position as well as lots of renewables so am thinking more fossil fuel companies. thanks

Q: Is there an easy way of calculating the dividend yield if the company issues special dividend during the year. I know the present yield is 1.74%, but what would be the dividend yield if you include the special dividends it has issued during the last year. Or if there is a site that does the calculation for you I would appreciate getting it. Many tnx for all your hard work.

Q: How would you rank these companies in terms of overall growth going forward in the energy sector. I'm currently holding TOU, WCP, TVE and KEL.

Largest position is in TOU at around 3% (+44%) and smaller positions in WCP (+69%), TVE (-9%) and KEL (-14%) . I could add to any of these names. How does TOU compare vs AR in terms of natural gas companies? AR has pulled back in the last year and today it was up close to 9% which I couldn't find any news. I'm thinking of selling some TOU or just starting a new position in AR. I also like that AR is buying back shares, have strong insider ownership, founder operated, strong margins and balance sheet. All metrics seem pretty strong with AR, any red flags that you see? Thoughts?

Q: Good day, what are your thoughts on the prospects for natural gas and what are your favourite US and CDN ways to play it?
Read Answer Asked by Nick on April 19, 2023
Q: I sold my TOU & ARX about 2 months ago when the price of gas dropped and I was glad I did because both stocks drop app 20%. Right now the price of gas is still only about $2.30 and I hear that there is currently an over supply of Gas in North America (not sure about Europe - but I don't believe either company can get Gas to Europe yet) but both TOU and ARC are both rising. Why? Based on the current price of GAS both companies will see a huge drop in earnings this year. What am I missing??
