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.

HOLD
Trading in a ragged way. Long-term book value is growing very rapidly. Fair market value higher than stock price. Good value. Price to book value is reasonable.
PAST TOP PICK
(A past top pick Nov 5/03. Up 14%.) And undervalued play. Still some upside left.
HOLD
Pretty much completely driven on commodity prices. Not a bad company, but prefers others.
BUY
On their list as a potential buy. Well-managed. Seems to be able to go into properties that others think are not viable and are able to extract tremendous value from them. A good investment for a medium to long term horizon.
TOP PICK
Represents very good value. Have a lot of great assets. Their oil sands project, Horizon, represents a lot of good value to the company.
BUY
Prefers Canadian Natural Resources to Penn West on a valuation basis. Lower multiples and better growth.
TOP PICK
One of the super independents that is undervalued. Represents good value. Expects oil and gas prices to remain high.
BUY
May have been caught in the downdraft from the Encana tax situation and would like to see what their situation will be. A good holding in any portfolio.
TRADE
Well-managed and diversified.
SELL
Has traded up fairly significantly. Fully valued. Lighten up.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick May 30/03. Up 6.6%.) Selling not too far off its book value and has lots of upside potential. A good-quality investment.
BUY
Try to buy at close to book value.
BUY
About 50/50 split between oil and gas. Some uncertainty with oil prices because of Iraq in 2004. Expects oil will stay in the $25/30 range.
PAST TOP PICK
(A top pick Aug 11/03. No change.) Nice international exposure and good weighting in oil and gas. Trading at 3 X cash flow. Cheapest Canadian play you can get.
BUY
Extremely cheap. Concerns are on how they replace their Ladyfern production. Good suite of assets.
