CVE

WEAK BUY

Not a bad play if you are bullish on oil. Have their fingers in a few pies in terms of refining, downstream, the oil sands project. Not as much growth as there is in some of the others, but decent cash generation.

WATCH

A wonderful company. Has been pulling back with the rest of the oils. Has a nice yield. Generating an enormous amount of cash flow. His focus has been more on the pure producers such as Encana (ECA-T). Watch how it acts against the market correction. If it can hold on, it's a stock you will want to own.

BUY

Probably will split when it reaches $100. Would like to see an increase in dividends.

TRADE

Very high right now. Not inexpensive relative to the other oil companies.

HOLD

In the next year or so will be a $100 dollar stock. "If they ever get the Mackenzie delta they are golden."

BUY

There will be huge gas resources available once the Mckenzie pipeline gets approved, hopefully this June. A good long term buy. Has had a run-up recently, probably due to buying coming in from the US.

TRADE

Has basically been a no-growth company. Has been a perennial disappointer and now finally they're getting their act in gear with good cash flow. Has a history of buying back shares. Has good heavy oil sands business.

TRADE

BUY

Q: Coming into an inheritance. What is a buy for a long term hold that pays dividends? A: Good long term hold. 2/3 of gains over time are made from dividends. Probably the highest dividend in the integrated oils.

BUY

Probably the most conservative oil/gas company in Canada. Prefers Petro Canada.

BUY

Prefers Imperial Oil for his dividend fund as it is a very steady integrated with a higher dividend yield.

DON'T BUY

Overpriced. Model price is $64.

DON'T BUY

Prefers more international stocks. Not a big growth player.

BUY

In the long-term, the prospects for a dividend paying stocks such as this are good.

WEAK BUY

A conservative play. Would prefer other companies like Sun-corp. OK for long-term.
