PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 18/23, Up 14.7%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

Our PAST TOP PICK with CVE is progressing well.  To remain disciplined, we now recommend trailing up the stop (from $20) to $24 at this time. 

TOP PICK

2027 bond issue specifically.
Good if economy enters into a recession.
Expecting short terms rates to go down.
~6% yield is very safe.
Energy space very strong. 

TOP PICK

Remains very bullish on oil, so he's looking for leverage to that call. Material discount to peers. Quickly getting to the threshold of paying investors 100% of free cashflow. 17% free cashflow yield at current oil price, 22% at $100 oil. Bullet-proof balance sheet. Yield is 2.19%.

(Analysts’ price target is $29.54)
WAIT

Energy is a late-cycle play, with crude locked in a trading range of $60-85 until late 2024 or early 2025. You could buy and collect your dividend, but energy stocks will be relative under-performers for the next 1.5-2 years. Yield is 2.5%.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

With wildfire related production cuts ending, we again reiterate CVE as a TOP PICK.  Rainbow Lake production of 20,000 barrels per day is coming back online.  The company trades at 9x earnings, 1.6x book value and supports a 20% ROE.  Cash reserves are growing, allowing for an aggressive retirement of debt and the buying back of shares.  We continue to recommend a stop-loss at $20, looking to achieve $29 – upside potential over 25%.  Yield 2.3%

(Analysts’ price target is $29.66)
TOP PICK

Underperformed on issues with US refinery, indicates on track to get back online. New CEO bought $1M worth of stock. 30 years of inventory in heavy oil. Huge leverage to oil price. Once debt reaches a certain level, investors will reap all the free cashflow. Its 6x multiple is fair value. Yield is 2.57%.

(Analysts’ price target is $29.78)
DON'T BUY

Because of ESG pressure, big cap oil has decided to buy back shares, pay down debt, increase dividends, keep capex reasonable. Not bad to own over the long term, as oil production is not increasing so prices will stay higher. Hasn't liked CVE since it was spun off. He owns and prefers CNQ.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Great company, but share price driven by price oil.
Wait to buy.
Not a good time to be in energy.

BUY

High quality. One of the better Canadian oil and gas producers. Fairly strong balance sheet, small dividend. Stock price drop makes valuation more attractive. Tremendous amount of free cashflow. Increasing dividends. Can buy here, below $20 looks even better.

BUY

They hiked their dividend over 30% last quarter. Trades at a decent PE, 7.5x. Pays a 2.5% dividend. 

HOLD

Trouble in last couple quarters. Oil prices will hang in. Nice cashflow. Over 2-4 years, you'll do OK. He owns CNQ.
