Suncor Energy Inc. (SU-T) has garnered predominantly positive reviews from various experts, highlighting its successful corporate turnaround and solid performance in the challenging oil sands sector. Many emphasize its potential for significant free cash flow, particularly given the long-life reserves it possesses. While there is some caution regarding the oil price's volatility and future market conditions, the general sentiment leans towards a strong long-term outlook, especially if oil prices stabilize or increase. Some analysts compare SU favorably against peers like Cenovus Energy (CVE) and Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ), suggesting that both diversification and share buybacks enhance SU's investment case. Despite a few calls for caution, notably regarding management and current valuation metrics, SU is viewed as a staple in Canadian energy investments, making it a go-to choice for dividend-seeking investors.

BUY
A leader in environmental reporting and practices. They do land reclamation and building wind farms to help offset emissions in their operations. Also looking at carbon capture and sequestration.
BUY
Classic investment in that you are buying when sentiment is out of the group. This is a time to put some oil sand into your portfolio and wait. Whether oil comes back in 2 or 4 years there will not be economic growth without an oil price increase.
COMMENT
Oil sands, which is high cost, so margins are very skinny. He has focused more on Imperial Oil (IMO-T) (See Top Picks) during this cycle. Very good name.
WAIT
Not the time to be a buyer. Stock has been consolidating since October technically. Obviously they are challenged on the cost front with high costs and low priced commodity. Would consider it at $30, as this would tell him that things were improving technically.
BUY
The “go to” name in oil sands, which are one of the greatest jewels Canada has. Have the expertise, assets and technology. You'll be able to see the cash flow for the next 75 years.
HOLD
One of the 3 premier companies in Canada along with Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ-T) and Encana (ECA-T). This one gives you more of a pure oil play.
DON'T BUY
A big cap core Canadian company that should be a core holding but he needs to see them get the volume consistent and drop their operating costs.
TOP PICK
Buy stock (23.80), Sell Jan 2010 Calls ($6.05) and Sell Jan 2010 Puts ($6) for a net cost of $11.75. If you wanted to take half his position now and the other half next year. He can agree to sell the half he is taking now by writing the $24 Call and Buy another block of shares with the sale of the $24 Put.
COMMENT
Have done a great job building their oil sands capacity. They will continue to be a very strong player in the oil sands. The challenge with the oil sands companies is the high capital costs and getting financing. If you're a long-term buyer this is probably a good time. Probably volatile over the next 6 months.
WAIT
With the price of oil, he doesn't think anyone in the oil sands is very profitable. Feels that in a year or two, crude oil will be higher and you could start looking at this sometime down the road.
SELL ON STRENGTH
Ranks 435 in his database because of a 13% negative year-over-year earnings growth. PE is 14X, which isn't cheap. Might be a bit of a rally seasonally and if so, would use it as a selling opportunity.
HOLD
Just cut their CapX in half. Have put a bunch of projects on hold. Not his favourite at the moment.
COMMENT
You need patience with this. At the end of the day, Canadian oil is what the US needs. There is also a misconception about how dirty the oil in the oil sands is.
COMMENT
Some analysts are marking this down because of crude prices. Production numbers did not look too bad. Numbers will be coming out in a couple of days so you can get a better sense of the outlook for 09.
COMMENT
A direct play on oil sands. Offers better growth than others. Good management.
