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.

DON'T BUY

If yyou're bullish on oil going forward, it's a good place to be. Good company, good operator. Have huge projeccts ion front of them for at least the next 10 years. Trading more expensively than its peers. Would like it at the $47 level.

TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 17/05. Up 3.5%.) Very prolific gas explorers in northern B.C. and north western Alberta. Also have offshore Africa as well as a cash cow in the North Sea. Likes the Horizons oil project in the oil sands. Even if they go at this project on their own, it'll throw off enough cash that they'll be debt free by 2008. Worth $80/90.

WEAK BUY

If you presume $50/70 a barrel on oil, the oil sands project looks extremely profitable. The stock has had a good move. A levered play on the commodity. Wouldn't be his first choice in the sector.

BUY

A great name. Oil sands should be a core part of your energy portfolio.

TOP PICK

Recently announced they are going to develop 500,000 barrels a day of oil sands through mining and upgrading. Have an enormous amount of reserves that are not producing. Long life reserves.

WEAK BUY

In the event that petroleum prices decline, this type of stock will go down faster than an integrated. If you are a bull on oil prices, then this would be good. He prefers PetroCanada (PCA-T).

TOP PICK

Has one of the best futures in the larger caps. Highly liquid. 1/3 heavy oil, 1/3 gas and 1/3 light oil. Have a very exciting bituman process in front of them in the Horizon project. Well run. There could be a further sell off in the market, so buy some now and add further later on.

BUY

Great Canadian company. Will be very volatile at this point. Well positioned and she likes its heavy oil exposure. Likes its ability to take assets that no one else wants and develop them into very productive returns for shareholders.

BUY

Incredibly bullish and how inexpensive CNQ-T (CNQ-T), Encana (ECA-T) and Talisman (TLM-T) are and how much money they're making.

BUY

Gives good exposure to the oil sands which have a long reserve life. There has been a softening in the oil sands plays.

TOP PICK

Likes the resource areas in Canada, both the metals and energy. Compared to its counterparts, this stock is very cheap. Watch for some basing before buying.

BUY

Stock of $45 is close to, but abo its 200 day moving average of $42 which is a good time to buy. Should be moving again by the 1st quarter.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Has a downside risk to about $38/40 level, but at that point, it would be superb fundamental value as well as excellent technical value.

BUY

Would have thought that it is getting to the stage where it is looking quite attractive. Optimistic about this stock. The drop in the stock price is a panic, not a fundamental change. It could drop a couple of more points.

BUY

Could drop in the near term, but 6 months from now you should be quite happy. Good long term holding. Recently bought some in the low $50's thinking it was a good price.
