BUY ON WEAKNESS
If you feel the market's had a good run, and that central banks will slow down the economy to get a handle on inflation, then we'll see a global slowdown. Supply chain issues persist. Balance sheet is superb. Hold, or buy on weakness. Because of Ukraine, Canada's become an attractive place for foreign investors.
SELL ON STRENGTH
The oil stocks have been amazing, but are getting pricey. Hold this to $26, which is maximum valuation. He questions the earnings story of all the oil stocks which are in the end of the 8th inning--not much time left till they become fully valued.
SELL
He models $52, more than twice the current price. Oil stocks are getting very pricey. You can hold this to $26, full max valuation. He questions the earnings story on all oil stocks which are in the 8th inning. There's not much time left for oil stocks and approaching full valuation.
BUY
Currently owns shares in company. Cash flow multiple trading at 4x. ConocoPhillips slowly exiting position - has had downward pressure on stock price. Expecting share prices to grow. With strong energy prices, will be strong financial performance. Keep shares as expecting growth.
HOLD
Stock vs. warrants? Stock versus warrants is really a question of do you want additional leverage on the warrants? Strike price is $6.54, so it's well in the money. Likes it with strong price momentum. Held back by COP selling shares, so could be a catch-up trade. Scores well on ESG, reasonable valuation.
BUY
ConocoPhillips selling holdings has had downward pressure on stock. Only large cap that Ninepoint owns. Currently trading at ~3x cash flow & 31% free cash flow yield ($100 oil). Plans to reduce debt and increase dividend. At $100 oil, opportunity for 111% upside.
BUY
Doing well compared to the group. Long way to go. There will be volatility, but energy is underowned. Great assets. Prefers CNQ, but both are great. Trades at 8x next year's earnings, balance sheet good, paying down debt.
BUY
Believes company is a well positioned and likes the stock. Strong management team. Operational execution has been strong. Company cleaning up balance sheet (reducing debt). Believes company will increase the dividend. Company offers above average returns with below average risk.
HOLD
Paying down debt, because otherwise it makes it hard to get financing. Sold off part of assets, a smart move. Likes what they're doing. If oil stays around $75, they will benefit over time. They're being cautious. They've agreed to buy back shares, but this can change.
COMMENT
Selling gas station and oil sands assets to pay debt He's been fairly big in the energy sector, but not CVE. It's good they're paying down debt as rates are low. There will be continued demand for fossil fuels. There's a supply shortage and alternative sources haven't filled energy demand yet. He's bullish energy.
WEAK BUY
They made a buy purchase of Husky. It's probably a good long-term hold if you want exposure in the energy patch. She owns no oil producers, but pipelines instead. CVE is decent.
BUY
Doing very well. Increased dividend, though not a big yield. Free cashflow accelerating. Improved balance sheet. Sold non-core holdings. Increased production. Talks environmental responsibility. Good future ahead. Discount to the group.
COMMENT
Might take another run at MEG, but he'd be surprised, as they could get into trouble. They just got out of jail from the disappointing Husky transaction. Seem pretty focused on returning capital to shareholders and paying down debt. A tough business.
BUY
Likes it. The only large cap he owns. It is trading at a material discount. They have a great CEO who executes well. The Husky gas station sale is good to deleverage. 74% upside potential. Volume has been strong. Trading at a good discount. A standout choice.
DON'T BUY
A producer. Selloff in mid-streams favours owning them over a name like this. Producers are more commodity exposed, with risks of labour cost inflation and supply chain shortages. He prefers names like ENB, PPL, and TRP with their healthy dividends and less volatility.
