Suncor Energy Inc. (SU) has garnered praise for its remarkable corporate turnaround and strong performance under its current management, noted for streamlining operations and generating significant free cash flow. Despite recent challenges, including the stepping down of the CEO, experts see potential for substantial upside, with estimates of up to 40% growth in two years if the momentum continues. Many experts consider the stock's valuation as attractive, especially in comparison to peers like CNQ, suggesting that it remains a compelling option for income and growth as oil prices fluctuate. The company's long-life reserves and commitment to returning capital to shareholders through dividends and buybacks bolster its favorable standing in the energy sector, contributing to a generally positive outlook.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 18/22, Up 11%)

He wouldn't like to see the company split up. Aggressive US managers are pushing for change. Extremely inexpensive. Continues to recommend. Yield nearly 5%.

BUY

Investors have collectively decided that the banking crisis will cause a hard landing recession and thus a drop in oil demand.

BUY

He has a significant position in SU. Energy prices will continue strong for a protracted time. Energy sector will continue to do well.

BUY

As with CNQ it has great long life assets and generates good cash flow. There is not a lot of new supply coming in and we should see some pickup in drilling in the U.S. over the next year.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

New CEO an outsider which is good.
Health and safety issues improving.
Concerns on longevity of assets.
4-5 turn around on company prospects.
Current share price presenting a buying opportunity for long term shareholders.

HOLD

Pretty positive quarterly results, as people were expecting. Three clouds overhanging: safety, CEO still be be named, Fort Hills cost profile. It's one of the 3 energy names he'd use. He follows SU, CNQ, and EOG quite closely. These energy companies are gushing cashflow now.

BUY

Pays a 4.5% dividend that will increase. Global demand for oil continues to outstrip supply, which is minimal these days. Are disciplined and instead enhancing share buybacks and dividends. China reopening is a catalyst.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Jul 29/22, Up 8%)

Largest oil sands producer in Canada.
Likes the stock and will continue to hold.
Excellent assets with very long life.
Costs coming down on the operations.
Refining operations also very strong.
Record profits producing large amounts of cash flow.
New management should improve company performance.

BUY

It's cheap. Well-run and the dividend should rise. The Canadian oil patch is now reducing debt and buying back shares. Suncor ticks all the boxes. He prefers the integrateds, like Suncor.

HOLD

Energy stocks are still trading higher when you look at the 200-day MA. Still likes and owns. Still sees very steady global oil demand, continues to outstrip supply. In 2022, US drew down 37% from reserves, which will need to be replenished. Oil inventories are generally low. Companies are focused on enhancing shareholder value. Industry-wide underinvestment. China's reopening can be a catalyst as well. Over 12-24 months, he still likes the energy sector. 200-day MA still moving along nicely, along with the price still moving higher. Still has potential. With the macro economy looking better, interest rate action, and China reopening, he'd hang on. Yield is 4.8%.

WEAK BUY

Hold or buy, not sell. The price of oil will stay the same or rise. The transition to renewables will take time, so oil will stay a while. Suncor will reap the benefits of higher oil. Caveat: the health and record of the CEO. They have a nice plan to return capital to shareholders.

DON'T BUY

Less optimistic about energy in the near term. Had a good run, now consolidating and that's his concern, it's dead money. Reward/risk ratio is not compelling.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate SU as a TOP PICK. The stock price is down on news of its refinery in Colorado being down for several weeks due to fires. Recently reported earnings show cash reserves have surged back above $2.2 billion -- the highest level since 2018 -- while it is retiring debt and buying back shares. We continue to recommend a stop-loss at $36, looking to achieve $50 -- upside potential of 20%. Yield 4.5% (Analysts’ price target is $50.06)

DON'T BUY

Not a good buy for return on capital. No growth and no return. Volatile and past best before date.
