BUY

Currently buying shares in the company.
Excellent management team with free cash producing assets.
Oil production will continue to grow.
Major capital expenditures over - able to produce oil with less costs.
Expected to generate $12 billion in free cash in 2024 ($80 billion market cap).
Higher dividends and share buybacks will continue.
Outlook for Canadian energy much better.
~5% dividend yield that is very stable.

BUY

Excellent company with high quality management team.
Counter cyclical acquirers. 
Has never cut dividend.
Long term - excellent investment.
Expecting dividend increases. 
If oil remains above $70, expecting further dividends and share buybacks.

Unspecified

It is one of the better ones and is active in conventional oil, gas drilling operations, and the oil sands. It has a dividend of 4% and is good at returning money to shareholders.

BUY
Best Canadian oil stock with low/no debt?

Not zero debt, but it's getting much lower. One of the best, executes very well. Reducing capex, increasing dividend, buying back shares, paying down debt. Fossil fuel is not going away, demand will continue.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 10/23, Up 21%)

Very strong management. Long-life assets are hard to replace. Companies that are able to manage debt and shareholder returns are being rewarded. Once debt reaches a certain level in 2024, 100% of cashflow goes to shareholders.

PARTIAL BUY

It's no hitting the top of its range this year, hitting resistance, but if you buy now you could be rewarded in a year. Energy is interesting now. The risk/reward is pretty good. But he prefers other energy names. Take a third of a position. He'd feel better if this broke above the mid-$80s.

COMMENT

Is currently trading at its $80 ceiling. If it breaks $80 it will be great news. Buy on that breakout, but not now.

BUY

A core holding. They've never cut the dividend and have grown it for many years. One of the best management teams anywhere in the world; are great counter-cyclical buyers. He's very bullish natural gas, which is another tailwind for CNQ. Their Oil Sands are best in class and will continue to produce steady cash flow.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate CNQ, Canada's largest oil and gas company, as a TOP PICK.  Trading at 10x earnings and 2.1x book value, it supports a ROE of 25%.  The dividend has grown annually by 20% for over 20 years and is backed by a payout ratio under 40% of cash flow.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $67) to $70, looking to achieve $90 -- upside potential of 17%.  Yield 4.2%

(Analysts’ price target is $90.45)
BUY

Believes large companies will conserve capital & return it to shareholders rather than M&A activity.
New mentality that shareholders need to be re-paid.
Long term CNQ is a great hold.

Unspecified

It is moving sideways same as most of the oil stocks. The floor is probably in the $70 range. Eventually it should go up.

HOLD

He doesn't know where oil prices are going to go, but he's confident that oil demand will be pretty strong over the next 5-10 years. Extremely well run. Fantastic fundamentals. Big oil sands capex spend is done, just free cashflow now. Own this instead of utilities, pipelines, or banks. Raised dividend for 20+ years, more to come.

BUY

Top tier performer.
Excellent management team led by Murray Edwards.
Strong dividend yield.
Record profits even with lower prices.
Demand for energy not going anywhere.

BUY

One of the best oil companies in Canada. Focused on shareholder returns, reducing capex. Debt levels will go down. Oil is not going away. Gives them credit for taking steps on climate change. Yield is 4.9%.

WAIT

Very well run. Also look at SU. These 2 names are his favourites. Look to add on a bigger correction.
