Suncor Energy Inc. has garnered positive attention from various analysts who appreciate its solid turnaround under new management and its strong position in the Canadian oil sands sector. Experts highlight the company's potential for significant free cash flow generation over the coming decades due to its long-life reserves and efficient operations. While some analysts express caution regarding short-term oil price fluctuations, the general sentiment leans towards holding the stock for its long-term growth prospects. The company is seen as a stable investment due to its robust dividend policy and ongoing share buybacks. However, comparisons with other Canadian energy firms, particularly CNQ, indicate that while Suncor remains a viable option, it may not necessarily be the top pick for all investors.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
One of the major producers in the Athabaskan Oil Sands and probably the best operator there. Everybody should have a piece of the oil sands in their portfolio. Would wait for a bit of a pull back.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Every portfolio should be in the oil sands in some of form or other and his choice is this stock. Management has ewxecuted quite well. Slightly expensive but can see it doubling in the next 8 to 10 years. There will be ups and downs in oil stocks and would be a buyer of more if the price dropped.
BUY
According to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, 75% of all oil in Canada will come from the oil sands by 2015. This stock trades at 20/22% premium to net asset value.
BUY
Likes the company and sees more upside to it.
TOP PICK
Weighting in his portfolio has been reduced, but wants to own oil sands one way or another. Valuation is rich near term. Should get to $100 in 2010. Could go sideways for 2 years and he's willing to live with that.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May 2/05. Up 40%.) Had taken some profits as it became overweight in her portfolio. Still likes. 50 year reserve life.
WAIT
Had it on his Buy list some time ago. Got upset with them on the explosion and they are still not back on full production, but it's coming. Seem to be doing better than he had anticipated. One of the ways to participate in an integrated and in the oil sands. Looks very expensive right now. Waiting for production to come on to see what their costs are.
DON'T BUY
Like all oil sands companies, concerned about them bringing projects in on budget, the shortages of labour in order to build things that far north and the cost of natural gas which is needed to heat the oil sands in order to get the oil out.
DON'T BUY
Was a top pick 2 years ago when it was $22 and it stayed there for a long while. His model price is now $56.64 which is a 10% negative differential. Thinks oil sands are very expensive here.
BUY
If you are a believer in oil/gas and strong commodity prices, but not so much in income, this is a good way to play the oil sands.
WEAK BUY
Took some profits. Was really upset when their plant blew up. Thought they had sorted out those problems. Not on his favourite list any more.
BUY
Earnings were a little disappointing. Investors should be looking at the oil sands where the promise lies and it has the reserve life. Relatively cheap at a 25% discount to net asset value.
BUY
The life insurance industry in general is a positive one. Very big in the funds management business through their MFS holding in the US. This was devastated in the mutual funds scandal and they lost all kinds of assets. They are building that back up. Looks like a reasonable investment here.
BUY
You can buy this one now if taking a very long term view. It will expand its production hugely over the years in the tar sands.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick May2/05. Up 21%.) Attracting US investors as they discover the oil sands.
