Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ) is highly regarded by various experts, often highlighted as a premier option in the oil and gas sector. Many believe it's robustly managed, showing a strong capacity for free cash flow and consistent dividend growth over time. However, there are concerns regarding the volatility associated with oil prices, with some analysts projecting long-term bearish trends for crude oil, raising questions about sustainable high valuations. While there are mixed views on current price levels, many recommend holding the stock for long-term gains, especially during dips. Despite potential headwinds, CNQ's diverse portfolio and low-cost production are significant advantages that may appeal to income-focused investors seeking stability in uncertain market conditions.

Consensus

Hold

Valuation

Fair Value

Similar

TOP PICK

Very cheap at 3 X cash flow. Great gas exposure in BC and Alberta. Have a cash cow in the North Sea.

BUY

Positive on the oil sector and this is a great name to own. The only caveat is that they are involved in an oil sands project and they are new in this area so could have cost overruns.

TOP PICK

(A top pick Jun 2/03. Up 38%.) A great company. Well diversified.

TOP PICK

Has gone up a lot. Quite a big gas play. Just raised its dividend. Record profits. Strong management.

TRADE

Prefers Talisman because it trades lower on fundamentals.

TOP PICK

Have some good natural gas properties in the western provinces. Also like their tar sands projects. Also has some interesting positions in Africa.

BUY

It's down because of sympathy with many of the seniors downgrading their reserves. Should be no problem with reserves in this company. Very competent. Will probably be a growth story for the next 5/10 years.

HOLD

Every portfolio should have some energy. Cheaper the better. Good entry point. Long term hold

DON'T BUY

Should have a good year in 2004, but that is probably built into the stock already. Not very bullish on oil stocks.

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.
