Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I'm considering Suncor or CNRL for a long term hold. Could you please discuss the merits of each with an eye to exposure to impact from potential Trump decisions. Which would you buy today and is there another company in this space I should consider (I also have ENB,VET and RRX)?
Thanks for the great service!

Q: In a follow-up to my question in regards to the ex dividend date for a dividend payout I would like to thank Mike for clarifying the drip portion of the dividend payout. My question now is what do you mean by on the day of the ex dividend that the stock does not trade with the dividend. On that day does the stock have a lower or higher price? or if you sell it on that date you don't get the dividend. Thanks.

Q: Hi everyone,

What oil company would you choose to take advantage of possible higher oil prices in the near future (in case of confrontation with Iran) while avoiding possible border tax proposals against Canadian oil? Would you choose smaller Canadian or US large cap? Which one do you think would be a safer bet SPE or SGY? Or would you recommend something with even better MANAGEMENT like VET with operations outside Canada? Or do you prefer a US company with better growth?

Thank you in advance for your promptness and insights.

Q: I have just completed re-balancing my RIF - selling some & retaining the following: L, FTS, AQN, EIF, KXS, ENGH, IPL & FB. My surplus in cash is now approx. $145,000 CDN. I have decided to place this amount into the USA. As I already own Facebook, this would round out my US holdings at about $155K US. While I like TXN & EBIX I would appreciate your suggestions & comments as to these as well as others you favor - allowing for the present turmoil in this marketplace. Thank you.
