Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNQ) is viewed positively by most experts, recognized for its strong management team and consistent performance amidst fluctuating oil prices. The company benefits from both oil and natural gas production, positioning itself as a resilient player in the energy sector. Many reviews highlight CNQ's robust financial health, including a well-structured balance sheet and substantial cash flow, which supports ongoing dividend payments and share buybacks. Although some analysts express caution, recommending to take profits or wait for better entry points, there’s a general consensus that CNQ can sustain profitability even when oil prices decline significantly. Additionally, its historical performance of returning capital to shareholders through dividends makes it a solid choice for long-term investors.

BUY
A high-class company. $18/20 cash flow per share estimates. Inexpensive.
BUY
Likes it for its exposure to natural gas. Have some terrific potential offshore Africa. Also has a cash cow in the North Sea. Incredibly cheap.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
A name we are favourable towards. Target of one year of $44. Should be recognized as a cheap stock.
BUY
A favorite name. Not getting any value for its oil stands position. Very cheap compared to large-cap peers. Has performed extremely well.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
A terrific company for a long-term hold. Expects lower oil prices. Would consider in the high $20's or low $30's.
WAIT
Likes this company, but before owning it, would want to see at least one or two of the big oil companies go to new highs. That would be a signal for a new rally.
TOP PICK
Earnings came out with a record level. Multiples are lower than the other big producers.
BUY
First choice in oils/gas.
TOP PICK
Senior oils are only discounting $32-$34 oil so, it oil drops, it only goes to that level. If it a goes up, it's a bonus. Will cash flow almost $12 this year which is only 3 X.
BUY
One of their top technical picks in that sector. Has lost a bit of momentum, but it's not a worry. Reaction to OPEC will be key. Expect energy prices will remain high for a while.
WEAK BUY
The risk is the differential between "headline" oil and their heavy oil. Doing quite well at this point, but some risk.
BUY
Extremely well run. Feels the price of oil is going to stay at a high level. Just in the early stages of developing its Tar Sands Project which is fabulous.
DON'T BUY
There is so much talk about additional supplies of oil that it is having a negative psychological impact on oil stocks. Would want to see some significant strength before buying.
BUY
Oil prices dropped on theories of increased production, but doesn't feel that the Saudis can increase I very much. One of the cheapest in North America.
BUY
Has the best cash flow rate of return of all the large-cap domestic companies. Continues growing reserves. Well-managed.
