Imperial Oil (IMO) has garnered attention from various experts, with many viewing it as a strong investment opportunity fueled by a favorable outlook on oil prices and robust fundamentals. Several analysts highlighted its excellent cash generation capability, low debt levels, and impressive dividend growth. While some expressed concerns about current valuations, noting that the stock is trading at a premium compared to peers, many agree that its long-term prospects remain compelling. The company's large inventory depth and shareholder returns strategy are significant positives, and it continues to be a standout performer amidst the broader oil and gas sector. Discussions indicate that despite some volatility in oil prices and external geopolitical factors, the sentiment toward Imperial Oil remains generally positive, particularly for long-term investors.

TOP PICK

Just started to perform with price of commodity. High quality earnings, fully integrated and getting full benefits of downstream earnings, which have been growing quite nicely. Nice hedge against geopolitical issues that international companies have. Viewed as a very stable company.

COMMENT

Recently beat earnings. Their output actually went down but they made money because of their refining business. He would favour the integrateds right now in the oil industry. Technically, if it breaks down through its support, it would be a good buy at $40.

COMMENT

He has this as a neutral with a $50 target. Sees further production and cash flow growth but there are a lot more cost overruns coming. He would rather have a much higher yield.

COMMENT

Too big for his interests but feels that gasoline will be an integral part of the economy for many years. Surprised that it has such a low dividend.

DON'T BUY

Would prefer Suncor (SU-T), which is certainly cheap. This is a great company. Growth is through the Kearl project, which is coming on line but cost escalations are really getting up there.

DON'T BUY

Great company. Had a great bounce from the lows of 2011 and 2008-2009. This one could potentially come down to maybe $35. Wait for the correction and then Buy.

DON'T BUY

Continues to lack growth to any large potential. Prefers Athabaska.

WEAK BUY

Trades with oil prices. Big cap X ahead of them. Doesn’t own much of it.

BUY

Imperial Oil (IMO-T) or Husky (HSE-T)? The size, breadth and its ability of Imperial Oil to maintain and grow its market share would be a positive for him. Husky will have more volatility. This would be a good entry level.

BUY

They make tremendous return on equity on their projects. Alberta project is on line and is doing well. Good buying opportunity.

BUY

A core position for him. Stock has ability to go to sleep on you but there is internal growth. This is a great stock for him to have in the core of his portfolio. Has not fallen enough for him to get excited enough to buy more. He trimmed back when it got too high.

COMMENT

Moved up starting last year when they got approval for the Mackenzie pipeline. Probably looking for a little bit of a pull back. He would like it at the $38-$40 range.

WAIT

Would wait for a pull back. It has had a good run and is now consolidating. If you are very bullish on energy and think it is going higher from here, this looks great.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick April 13/10. Up 18.67%.) They make a ton of money of about 9%-10% a year. Long term hold for him.

WEAK BUY

They all have had a nice run. The oil sands bad odour has been dissipated. The bad aspects were over done by parties in the States. The question is: would we like to buy our oil from people that run around killing each other or to use our own. His choice is CNQ, although he doesn’t own it.
