Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNQ) is viewed positively by most experts, recognized for its strong management team and consistent performance amidst fluctuating oil prices. The company benefits from both oil and natural gas production, positioning itself as a resilient player in the energy sector. Many reviews highlight CNQ's robust financial health, including a well-structured balance sheet and substantial cash flow, which supports ongoing dividend payments and share buybacks. Although some analysts express caution, recommending to take profits or wait for better entry points, there’s a general consensus that CNQ can sustain profitability even when oil prices decline significantly. Additionally, its historical performance of returning capital to shareholders through dividends makes it a solid choice for long-term investors.

BUY
Likes at these levels. Will eventually be taken out. There could still be continuing corrections down. You can buy now for the longer term.
TOP PICK
Sold half his position and would look for a re-entry point in the $44/45 area.
BUY
The one commodity that has stood up quite well during this market turn down has been oil. We are now getting into the hurricane season, uncertainty in the Middle East, South America and Russia. Likes gas oriented producers.
BUY
Excellent example of a high quality stock. If oil prices drop, it has natural gas, light oil production, heavy oil production and an option on an oil sands play. Would add to this with the present low prices. Great long-term play.
TOP PICK
Going to cash flow about $10 this year, and that's with 30% of production hedged. Assuming a $60 oil, it historically trades at 5.5 X cash flow which gives you $55. That means the Horizon oil sands project is free.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 5/06. Down 13%.) Has dropped with all energy stocks. Not adding at this time.
DON'T BUY
Would be on his list of potential purchases. Have done a fabulous job. Likes its oil sands involvement. Too expensive at 14 X earnings.
BUY
Has dropped from $75 to $58 and yet oil prices hit $71. At a fairly attractive price.
BUY
Good management team. A natural gas producer. Also have the ability to be an oil sands player in the next few years. A core holding.
BUY
Had some disappointing results because of their hedging. Also they didn't get as much drilling done as they expected.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 18/06. Up 9.) They watch their costs very closely. Have an interesting oil sands project Horizon.
BUY
A fabulous story. Great management.
HOLD
Great Canadian success story. Pure producer, so it's going to be volatile. Embarking on a pretty major oil sands expansion. Oil sands expansions tend to have a lot of cost overruns. There may be a better opportunity on any overrun announcements.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 11/05. Up 14%.) Feels there is further upside. 1/3 heavy oil, 1/3 natural gas and 1/3 light oil. Likes their Horizon heavy oil project.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 16/06. Up 5%.) Cheap and he likes the space and he likes the tar sands in particular. Would still buy.
