Suncor Energy Inc. (SU) is widely regarded as a strong player in the Canadian energy sector, particularly in oil sands. Many experts praise its impressive turnaround under new management, which has resulted in significant earnings growth and an efficient operational structure. Despite recent challenges due to fluctuating oil prices and broader geopolitical issues, Suncor is said to maintain a robust outlook with long-term potential for free cash flow generation, especially as investments in infrastructure continue. The company is viewed favorably for its ability to return capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks, as well as its long reserve life that offers stability in the energy market. A few experts express caution regarding current valuation levels and suggest watching market dynamics before making significant moves, yet the overall sentiment leans towards optimism with potential upside depending on future oil price movements.

Valuation

Fair Value

CNQ

DON'T BUY

Pays a 4.4% dividend, but it's volatile so don't focus on the dividend. He traded this recently, selling it to buy CPG-T which has hit a bottom. $36 is a stop and $41 is a top. In a given year, SU will rise only a few percentage points, whereas other oil stocks like CPG-T will leap several dollars on good news.

HOLD

This is the safest oil stock to own in Canada. He is not keen to become a new buyer, but will continue to hold it. Don't catch the falling knife. Great balance sheet, but until oil stocks stabilize, there is no need to get back in. Yield 4.5% (Analysts’ price target is $53.00)

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jun 18/19, Down 9%) July to the present, energy got crushed globally. In early June it looked like they were bottoming. Oil is starting to recover, so he is now cautious.

WEAK BUY

A great stock in an unloved sector. The market hates oil stocks, but the global oil addiction continues even with the prevalence of e-cars. SU yields over 4% that is grows regularly. Buffet is an investor. He likes its cost efficiency and most importantly they have downstream integration, so they can refine their own oil and get interntional pricing, not the low WCS price. Buy more if this? He can't say; it depends on your portfolio. Don't double-down because it's now cheap.

DON'T BUY

There are higher oil prices, but oil stocks are hitting lows. This is a tremendous disconnected. Seasonlity is in the first half of the year, the run-up to summer driving when the oil price peaks. This year, we're not seeing the typical rally in SU-T. The tone is pessimistic, but there is a great buying opportunity coming up.

DON'T BUY

Well run. To make money in the long run, you have to be a counter-cyclical acquirer like Suncor. If you're holding it for income, you might want to stick with it. Resilient cash flow profile. But as a total return growth stock, better opportunities elsewhere. Shareholder friendly. Yield is north of 4%. One concern is oil prices. He'd be more defensive.

HOLD

He likes both SU-T and CNQ-T and has made it a Top Pick in the past. Both these stocks continue to be good to hold. SU-T will continue to be a core holding for him as he likes both their upstream and downstream assets.

COMMENT

The weighting of energy on the TSX from the low-30s% to 18% and SU makes up a big part of that 18%. SU has been the go-to Canadian oil stock. You can make money on SU, but there are less risky stocks out there.

HOLD

Great company. Owns CNQ instead. Incredible assets. Very defensive. More dividends and buybacks, incredible free cash flow. If you own it, consider it a long-term hold. Perfectly fine to own in the current environment.

WEAK BUY

Modelling 0% cash flow per share growth. Nice dividend. Cheap. Balance sheet fine. If you like oil, it's a great place to be. There are better places to be. If you buy it here, fine for the long term.

BUY

He's owned this many years though it's been sideways. It's better than most oil names. The upstream assets have very long reserve lives, and so don't need much sustaining capital, which is different from conventional oil producers who constantly need to drill and spend. SU buys back many shares each year. It's the best integrated oil company in Canada. They have modest growth and the stock won't skyrocket, but you can sleep well owning this.

HOLD

One of the three energy stocks he holds. A fabulously run company with great assets. The market really doesn't care that much until oil prices begin to rally again. The yield is good too and they continue to add to investor value. Yield 4.1%.

COMMENT

Strategy or option plans in Canadian energy? Canadian oil is more volatile than the overall market. Look for big oil names that are very liquid, so you can trade options. Look at Suncor for a covered call, but don't expect growth prospects in oil stocks. There'll be headwinds, namely the growth of e-cars. We won't see $100 oil again.

COMMENT

He does not own SU-T and remains underweight in energy. If the US dollar weakens, this could result in a higher oil price and good value for SU-T. There are just too many secular issues that are beyond the company's control. He owns VET-T because of its international assets.

COMMENT

Aside from Enbridge, he owns no energy, because he can't predict the price of oil due to geopolitics. If he were to buy oil, SU is one of two stocks he'd consider (and CNQ). SU is very good at capital allocation. A great production company. SU is as safe as you can get for an oil patch company.
