Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ) presents a mixed outlook among experts, with many praising its robust management and long-life assets. The company benefits from its low breakeven point and solid free cash flow generation. However, concerns about the price of oil and geopolitical influences weigh on sentiment, leading to recommendations to consider trimming positions after a notable run-up. While analysts highlight the strong dividend record and favorable fundamentals, there is caution as the energy sector faces pressures from potential oversupply and regulatory challenges. Overall, CNQ is viewed as a solid long-term hold with strong recovery potential in favorable market conditions.

Valuation

Fair Value

PARTIAL BUY

One of the best run companies in Canada. Have a great oil sands project that has been on budget and on time. Very good management. There will be some volatility. You could buy half your position and the rest if it falls.

TOP PICK

Has great visible growth, basically through Horizon. They will add another 100,000 barrels to that in the next year or so. Possibly the most oily weighted name.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 16/06. Up 34.3%.) Still likes.

DON'T BUY

Might come back. A little too expensive currently?

BUY

Wish he owned it. Best performing of senior oil stocks in the market this year. Expect this to perform well. A name comfortable buying.

TOP PICK

Past top pick (October 16, 2006) Up 38%. Estimated cash flow is $11. Costs rising across the board, have done well.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

One of these great Canadian oil/gas companies. Great exposure to oil sands. Also production in the North Sea and West Africa. Had a little bit of a run, so wait for a pullback.

BUY

About 40% exposure to natural gas. In the process of building the Horizon oil sands project giving it good potential but currently high costs and environmental woes. Attractive here.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 16/06. Up 23.3%.) Company is calling for $4 in cash flow from its Horizon oil sands project. With a 10 to 12 price to cash flow ratio on the $4, it would tack on $40-$50 onto their price. Good upside.

HOLD

Has outperformed its peers. Trading at around 6X cash flow, which is pretty reasonable. Have some great properties. Rapidly growing production profile.

HOLD

Excited about the outlook for natural gas. Getting close to where he would consider it a good entry point. Superb company with superb landholdings. Fairly good production profile. Have been adept at replacing reserves.

BUY

Likes the potential oil sands exposure and the multiple the market should put on the oil sands earnings.

COMMENT

Just announced earnings, which looked pretty good. Exposed to cost overruns that are occurring in the oil sands. Good quality company. Will probably not complete the Horizon project until the fall of 08. For an oil sands play, she prefers Suncor (SU-T).

DON'T BUY

Has had a phenomenal run. Likes their connection with the oil sands. We are now going into a seasonally weak period. Wouldn't get into it right now.

COMMENT

A tremendous growth company. World-class assets. Hasn't dropped off as much as others, so would prefer a Petro-Can (PCA-T) or Imperial Oil (IMO-T) that has more of a diversified integrated feel to it.
