Q: Peter and Team:

If Royal Dutch Shell decides to go ahead with its LNG Export terminal in Kitimat, which NG Companies have the most potential upside?

I am woefully down on PEY, and am wondering if I should continue to hold in hope of recovery, or take a 50% plus hit and move on.

Thank you as alway
