The reviews of ConocoPhillips (COP) reflect a variety of perspectives regarding the oil market and its implications for the company's stock. One expert believes that despite the high oil prices likely resulting from geopolitical tensions, COP doesn't stand out among its competitors and recommends cutting it. Another review indicates that with the recent optimism for oil supply and prices coming down, the appeal of energy stocks, including COP, could diminish as capital flows shift to other sectors. Despite these concerns, one expert retains a positive outlook on COP, suggesting that it remains a worthwhile investment despite the recent declines. Overall, the sentiment around COP seems mixed, with considerations of broader market dynamics and the changing landscape of oil pricing influencing expert opinions.

HOLD

An outstanding company and not one you should be overly worried about.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick May 20/11. Down 1.67%.) Still recommending this one. They spun off their refining and marketing. So it is now pure exploration and production. Still likes.

COMMENT

Splitting into 2 companies. Upstream operations where they produce natural gas and oil globally and down stream operations of refining, marketing and chemicals. The refining business is a lousy one to be in. Lower margin, high capital cost business.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Likes the dividend yield. Good growth profile longer-term. See the price in the $80 range.

BUY

Chart shows a strong base. They are splitting the company into 2. 3.5% yield.

TOP PICK

The smaller of the major oils. Made a big bet on gas a few years ago by acquiring Burlington Resources, which didn’t work out very well. Sold off a bunch of assets including their Russian holdings and as a result are generating a lot of cash. 3.6% dividend.

DON'T BUY

There are better companies to own. Last quarter depletion rate was 10% while competition is 3%-4%. Also margins have not kept up with others. There are such great oil companies in Canada, why take stock risk as well as currency risk.

BUY

One of the largest refiners in the US. Good exploration track record. Thinks they will grow 5 or 6% when market factors in 2% in general. One of the best US oil and gas focused companies.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Likes the oil market and thinks oil stocks are relatively cheap. Continue to throw off a lot of free cash flow. Would look to buy these companies on pullbacks. Dividend of almost 4%. Better off buying Canadian companies so you don't suffer currency exchange.

BUY

Oil has rallied a lot from its lows so some of the money has already been made in this stock. However, oil stocks have not recovered in the way that oil has so at this point they are cheap. He prefers Exxon Mobil (XOM-N). (See Top Picks.)

HOLD

Has performed relatively well this year. They are in some of the more challenged environments to have assets. One of the top holders of broad based assets with good exposure to E&P, refining and chemicals. Even with the decline in oil, a lot of these companies make sense.

TOP PICK

His model prices $63.80, a 23% positive differential. Trading at 82% of Book. Has probably never been this low.

COMMENT

Still in his Top 10. He has a model price of $128.41, a 46% positive differential.

BUY

Huge value in this one. His model price is $119.49 giving it a positive differential of 52%.

BUY

(Market Call Minute.) Very solid company. Downside stream of the business is as strong as the upside. Not a levered play on anything.
