Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ) is widely recognized among analysts as a well-managed oil and gas producer with a solid balance sheet and significant free cash flow potential. The company is seen as a stable long-term investment, benefitting from both oil and natural gas production. Many experts highlight CNQ's ability to manage costs effectively and its history of increasing dividends, with some noting their comfort with the stock even at lower oil prices. There is a consensus that the stock performs relatively well, but opinions on timing for entry are mixed, with some suggesting waiting for a pullback before investing. Notably, concerns about oil price volatility loom, and while many analysts are bullish on its long-term prospects, some advise caution in the current energy market climate.

Suncor,SU

BUY

Petro Canada (PCA-T)/Suncor (SU&N-T) deal is making oil sands exposure a subject of interest. This company is a producer that has brought on their oil sands project pretty much on time and on budget.

BUY

The most levered to oil prices of any of the choices you could take. Oil prices should move higher.

DON'T BUY

On his disqualified list. Would look at Suncor (SU-T) in terms of being the leader in environmental reporting and practices.

STRONG BUY

Bullish on oil and this will bode well for their Horizon project. A screaming Buy any time under $40.

BUY

Horizon project is coming on this quarter and will start to see cash flow.

HOLD

Likes oil longer-term but shorter-term it is probably going to come under pressure and may go lower. If you own, Hold, otherwise buy it at lower levels.

DON'T BUY

(Market Call Minute.) There is no rush to be there and doesn't give you a yield like some of the trusts.

COMMENT

One of the best managed oil companies in Canada. Their new Horizons project is coming on stream any day now, which will give them a big boost in production. He is looking for oil to rebound later this year. However, oil sands has a larger environmental footprint.

WAIT

Because of the continuing erosion of their underlying commodity, it is very difficult to know where you will see that turn. Don't Buy until you see oil prices go up along with the stock price. (Would be more interested at $50.)

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Best quality of exploration and production companies after Encana (ECA-T). Has an oil sands project that is on stream and starting to produce.

HOLD

Great company. One of the 3 premier companies in Canada along with Suncor (SU-T) and Encana (EC A-T). Oil prices will come back again someday and they are very well positioned. Financing is still tight so can't see a takeover at this time.

TOP PICK

Well-managed. Top assets. Low cost. Slight amount of debt. Just built a brand new oil sands project and he hopes it operates at $29 a barrel. Have planned hedging with all sorts of businesses they can shuffle around in order to get at their debt. A core long-term hold.

BUY

One of the premier companies in oil/gas. Will have a dip in cash flow this year but going into next year and beyond he could see cash flow back at $9-$10, which at current prices makes this stock compelling.

BUY

The Horizon project is still going on and costs may have come down a bit. Very cheap. Good story and long-term growth.

COMMENT

You want to be careful with any company, particularly in the energy sector, to be sure you are buying a diversified company and will sustain and weather in an economic downturn.
