Valuation

CVE

BUY

Trading right at support level, which is always a positive sign. Has the potential to go back up to the $50 level. On the downside, use a tight stop of $42. Would suggest buying call options, which will limit your downside. This one will have actively trading call options.

PARTIAL BUY

He is more positively inclined towards oil in the short term. This stock would be a core holding in portfolios. Buy in stages.

BUY

The stock broke out about 6/8 weeks ago and has recently pulled back to the breakout point. Feels it has good technical support in here. Exxon (XOM-N) is raising cash and could be making a move on Syncrude of which Imperial oil is a part of.

BUY

Large integrated oil company. Owned by Exxon in the US. There is always the chance that the parent will take out the company. If you like the long-term opportunity for oil sands, this is a safer way to play.

HOLD

Price appreciation is going to change on the overall outlook for energy. Do a fairly decent job on their operations. Numbers were relatively strong on the last quarterly report.

SELL

Has had a spike and he does not know the reason for this. If he owned it, he would take some of the money off the table.

DON'T BUY

Has always traded above his model price. His model price is $46.66, which is a negative 6% differential.

COMMENT

Great quarterly results. Good refining exposure. If you own, consider taking some profits.

BUY

Prefers Petro Canada (PCA-T) because of their international exposure. With marketing/refining margins as strong as they are, and being the largest in Canada, they're benefiting from this.

COMMENT

Has a great store of value. He tends to go for companies where he can avoid the risk of downstream companies. Prefers Encana (ECA-T), Talisman (TLM-T) and CNQ (CNQ-T).

BUY

Spending a lot of money on the pipeline, but this, historically, has been a well run company. Generates tons of free cash flow. Good long-term hold.

DON'T BUY

The charts on integrateds look really ugly and he doesn't see them turning around anytime soon. A shortage of gasoline hasn't had any effect on stocks.

DON'T BUY

A dull stock. If you want to buy one of the integrateds, buy Husky (HSE-T) or Petro Canada (PCA-T).

COMMENT

Still have some of the best metrics and great properties. Trading at about 15.5 X earnings which is average. Facing limited growth potential because it is predominantly in the western sedimentary basin.

BUY

A great business and very well run. Exposure to the oil sands. Also has the integrated aspect. They continue to buy back stock. Good price.
