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
Has had a move and is in a very beautiful channel and there is plenty of upside on the stock. Canada has one of the largest reserves of oil in their oil sands. Suncor is a bargain at these levels in technical terms.
HOLD
The key element into looking at anything in the oil sands is the US recognition of it as a safe investment. Wait for a pull back before buying.
BUY
The reason to own this is because of their oil sands involvement. They're also in natural gas exploration which is used in the oil sands. Also in the refinery and marketing business. A great company.
BUY
Bottom line, it's a cost containment story. Looking at significant production increases over the next year. Has an 85 year reserve life. A conservative way to play this commodity story.
DON'T BUY
A good company and good projects. Very expensive compared to other producers. Will have to work until September to reconstruct their burnt-out facility, so there will be a production shortfall.
BUY
Q: Which would be better to hold for the long term, Encana (ECA-T) or Suncor (SU-T)? They are not too far off in terms of valuations. On a cash flow basis, Suncor is more expensive. Feels that you should own something in the heavy oil sands, so would prefer Suncor. He owns both.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
The Oil Sands stocks have had a great run. This one is probably the best operator in the Oil Sands. The best long term way to play the price of oil is an Oil Sands stock. May have moved up a little too high at this time. Wait for it to settle down a bit, maybe 10% lower.
DON'T BUY
Using a 200 day moving target, usually you'll have a correction in a bull advance down to the moving average. You'll probably find a downside target of 20%.
BUY
If looking at a long term view it makes sense to look at the tar sands companies. A world class asset. There will continue to be significant investments in this area. Strategically important. In the short term, a lot of these stocks are extended and could pull back 5/10%.
BUY
No expiration risk as demand for energy continues.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 14/04. Up 13%.) Had a big explosion and lost a lot of their production. It's back up again. Holding back until he sees how quickly they get their production back.
BUY
Had reached his short term valuation target, so sold half his position. Can't see it going anywhere in the short term. They're doubling production by 2010, all though internal cash flow and his long term target is possibly $80.
TOP PICK
Had one of its fractionators blow up on it and it will be out until the 3rd quarter which will have an impact on their production. Justifiably expensive because of top quality management. Once it comes back on stream and they get the increase in the oil sands they will do well.
BUY
Stock has been moving up in a parallel channel and has pulled back to the bottom of the channel which is also where the 200 day moving average is. This is a buying opportunity. Could be heading into new all time highs.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 18/04. Up slightly.) Still buying. Feels the fire issue is a bit of a red herring. Insurance will cover a good deal of the loss. A world class asset and a world class operator. A classic long term investment.
