RE:MaxmoeIt's not somewhat insulting. It's downright insulting. It's also insulting to think a small cap oil stock should be managed to suit the preferences of GIC refugees. I'm sticking to my point that nobody should buy small cap cyclical anything for a dividend yield that is 8% . It will inevitably end badly or at the very least , if the underlying cycle is in tune, it will underperform. That's my opinion. Ignore me if I hurt your feelings, but that's how I've seen it go countless times over 40 years. It's not that complicated. If you invest for steady reliable compounding dividends, don't pile on the risk of volatile cyclical companies. Especially small caps. If you want outsized growth and gains you have to add risk, you can't get those returns in a GIC. Good luck
