Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ) is regarded as one of the best-managed oil and gas companies in Canada, demonstrating solid operational performance and a commitment to returning capital to shareholders through dividends and stock buybacks. Experts highlight its significant reserve base, discipline in management, and ability to remain profitable even at lower oil prices, contributing to its attractiveness as a long-term hold. Despite some experts mentioning concerns regarding oil price volatility and the broader energy market outlook, many agree that CNQ's diversification and low-cost production make it a resilient player in the industry. The company has consistently raised dividends for over 25 years, reflecting strong cash flow generation and fiscal responsibility, with analysts projecting a positive long-term trajectory for the stock, particularly if oil prices stabilize or rise again.

STRONG BUY
Has had really remarkable earnings, but not reflected in the stock price.There's not enough gas in North America.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Has performed well.Expects that big cap stocks will break out of their present trading ranges
WAIT
Oil/gas sector quiets down in the summer. Wait until the fall.
HOLD
Has tremendous upside potential, but market is nervous about a possible collapse of oil/gas.
BUY
Likes better than Encana. Should have a cash flow double over Encana's. Looking for at least $2o cash flow per share.
PAST TOP PICK
(Was a top pick on Mar 6/03. Up 7%.) Still likes.
BUY
Rio Alto was a good acquisition.
WEAK BUY
Prefers others for better upside.
TOP PICK
Very cheap at less than 3 X current and forward cash flow. Like the asset base of natural gas (50%) and light oil.
TOP PICK
A steady, slowly rising pattern through good and bad times. A well run company. Not expensive.
BUY
Global. Heavy oil. Big disappointment in Lady Fern.
DON'T BUY
Reserve life is shrinking and they are having to grow by acquisitions. Cheap. May be a value trap. Prefers Encana.
BUY
Trades at just over 2 X this years cash flow. Expects an increase in production. Phenominal value.
BUY
Looks quite cheap. Very interesting company.
WEAK BUY
Trading at an attractive for book value. Management hasn't articulated its growth strategy very well. Cheap.
