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.

SU
BUY
The stock pulled back to its 200 day moving average in October which was an ideal buying opportunity. It could develop a little bit of a bounce because of profit takers. Looking fgor all the oil stocks to be significantly higher.
TOP PICK
Likes their Horizon oil sands project which is 14% complete through phase one. At these prices, they are adding huge amounts of excess cash flow which is a potential for an increased dividend. As their oil sands production comes on, this could be a double.
TOP PICK
US has had a major shift in their focus of finding new energy which includes Canada, the Ivory Coast and the North Sea. This company is situated well in these spaces.
DON'T BUY
The long-term chart looks like a typical spike. The last spike did not make a new high. It is hard to believe that this would rally and make a new high.
BUY
Top quality company. You have to extrapolate that the oil price will stay in this range, which he does.
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.
