Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNQ-T) is viewed positively by experts for its strong management, solid balance sheet, and ability to generate cash flow even at low oil prices. Many analysts praise CNQ's long-term operational efficiency, citing a robust dividend history and the promise of sustained cash returns to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. While some experts caution about the impact of fluctuating oil prices on the stock's performance, many believe it remains a core holding in energy portfolios due to its low-cost production and diversified asset base. The consensus suggests that while the oil market faces challenges, CNQ is well-positioned to weather these conditions and benefit from any eventual recovery in oil prices.

Valuation

TOP PICK

Largest Canadian oil/gas producer with production in excess of 600,000 daily. Have diversification through their offshore holdings in West Africa and in the North Sea. This is a cash cow. Making great money from oil sands, North Sea and eventually from West Africa. Have loads of cash to buy back stock, pay down debt or make other acquisitions. Cheap at 4.2 price to cash flow.

COMMENT

Stocks are not keeping up with the oil prices and that is due to skittishness as investors are not sure $100 oil is not going to stay. All the senior oils are great long term value. Stocks should rally somewhat.

BUY

Likes their mix of the land inventories and what they produce. Focusing on oil right now because they're negative on natural gas for the next few years. Very good guardians of capital. Will be spending $7 million next year on their Horizons project in the oil sands. Well-managed.

COMMENT

Keystone pipeline from the oil sands is a big issue. We were essentially at 1.2 million barrels a day going to the US and this was going to add another 800,000 barrels in 2 years. Extremely important that these transportation projects go ahead. This is his favourite.

DON'T BUY

With sluggish growth outlook in economy and Libya shipping oil in next 6 months, so thinks CNQs cash flow will suffer. Prefers Royal Dutch Shell. Oil prices in a sluggish economy don’t have to fall off much to have a negative impact.

COMMENT

One of the premier large cap stocks in Canada. With Horizon starting up again, they are back to full cash generation mode. Have a fairly large bond that comes due in 2012 making the market a little skittish.

COMMENT

Conventional heavy oil and oil sands out of Horizon. Higher sensitivity than others to the price of oil. Well run. Have more land than any other company in Canada. Should do very well over time.

BUY

Excellent company. Gassy so can be vulnerable to the oversupply of North American gas. One of the major exploration and production companies.

BUY

A little bit of support right where it is now. This is probably a pretty good risk/reward. If it breaks down then get out and wait for $27.

TOP PICK

A great Canadian company. Low cost producer. Have assets including shale gas, oil sands and gas so they can toggle between the businesses or even sit on their hands if they choose to. Attractive valuation at 5X cash flow.

BUY

One of the market movers because of its size. Hit hard over the last 3-4 months. It trades like an oil stock. Downside is $30. One of the biggest natural gas portfolios in Canada but they aren’t drilling it. IF he picked one major to buy on this pull back it would be this one. Has cash flow and free option for natural gas.

COMMENT

One of the larger and better managed of the exploration/production companies. Has a little yield. Good holding.

BUY

He likes this one a lot. Expects you could see it in the $40-$50 price range. Very well run. Tremendous assets. Strong management.

HOLD

Gave quite a good sell signal quite close to the top but now it has met its down side target. You could let some go if you are up a lot. Nothing wrong with it. Well run company.

BUY

If longer term, it could take longer term to play out.
