Q: Follow up to Maurice. ELF is a portfolio of global public equities with a market value equal to $926/shr net of debt (300 mm of prefs). The other part is Empire Life with a BV of $380 per ELF share and ROEs of 11 - 12% over the past 3 years so probably worth 1.3 times book or $494/ELF share for a total value of $1420 per share. The question is what holdco discount is reasonable because control is not in the market

Q: Hi there,

I've been out of oil for a few years now. In your opinion is now the time to get back in? Is there legs behind the recent rally? I was looking at Yangarra and Parex - do you prefer one over the other? Or another name entirely?

Thank you!

Q: I seek your thoughts on the following: my portfolio is constructed to a max weighting of 4% per holding. As I am retired I now have a minimum 3% div payout requirement. I am a 30 plus year investor in the markets and not shy on a slightly higher volatility and risk. I have been out of oil and gas totally over the past few years. I am looking at entering a small to mid cap producer. Cardinal certainly meats the div need but I am concerned about its viability to maintain it. Whitecap is around 3.5% yld and I have held it in the past. It is much larger, but which one do you think has the most capital growth from here, and is the most sound investment or would you go into both? thank you

Q: News reports say Takeda is offering $66.20 in cash and stock for SHPG but stock currently trades at $160.16. Am I missing something? Aside from the takeover interest, is SHPG a good buy at this time
