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.

XOM

HOLD

Have typically had less efficient use of capital. Have overpaid in the past for some of their acquisitions. Have a fair bit of capital expenditure going on.

BUY

Globally, there will be more and more governments/government backed businesses get into the international market to acquire production for their own security. This will favour the large multi-nationals.

BUY

A good buy here. Cheap because it's not one of the majors.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Like many of the integrateds has had a pretty great run. Would hold off until we get a soft crude price. The risk/reward is very good. A very stable company. Good production.

HOLD

A smaller player where its larger competition has made a lot of acquisitions. Like a lot of the majors, when oil prices were low, they didn't spend a lot of money on exploration so reserves are down. Expect it will catch up over a longer period of time.h

TOP PICK

Oil stocks in the US do not trade on a valuation comparable to Canada. IF they did, it should be a $90 stock.

DON'T BUY

Exxon (XOM-N) versus Conoco (COP-N). Exxon has the best capital discipline of the US majors. Has a very high return on capital employed (ROCE). Conoco is one of the worst, largely because they overpaid for some of their acquisitions. Haven't had particularily good numbers on their refining and marketing side.

BUY

Trading below its majors on a valuation basis. One of the largest refiners and refining is pretty busy these days. Buying back $1 billion of their shares.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Nov 24/04. Up 12%.) Most of the integrated oils that have been doing well, is not from production, but from downstream, refining and marketing, which has done particularily well.

BUY

Their refining business is very interesting. Lots of upgrading.

TOP PICK

Oil prices will be $35 or more from now on. PE ratio of 9 and very good dividends. If earnings just stay where they are, or increase very gradually, it is still a good value.

TOP PICK

Offers the diversity of resource bases around the world. Trading at about a 15% discount to its majors. Good international exposure.

BUY

TOP PICK

22% undervalued to their model price. Overweighting energy in their portfolios.

BUY

Very levered to the oil story. Has the largest refinery in the world.
