Canadian Natural Resources downgraded, Suncor and Imperial boosted to 'buy'

Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ.TO)(CNQ) shares were downgraded by TPH & Co. on Monday. At the same time, the Houston-based research firm joins a growing camp of analysts favouring Suncor Energy (SU.TO)(SU) and Imperial Oil (IMO.TO)(IMO) amid the risk of U.S. tariffs on Canadian crude.

Analyst Jeoffrey Lambujon cites valuation concerns as he lowered his recommendation on Canadian Natural Resources’ stock from “buy” to “hold,” while maintaining a $50 per share price target. He upgraded Suncor and Imperial from “hold” to “buy” on Monday, with price targets at $66 and $115 per share, respectively.

“While we view CNQ’s asset quality and reliable execution as world-class, and see recent weakness as more noise-related versus structural, we’re moving to the sidelines on valuation,” he wrote in a note to clients.

“Looking ahead, we don’t doubt CNQ’s ability to continue crushing the quarters, and 2025 could bring further operational improvement following recent transactions (all positive, in our view), but for now, we see better rate-of-change potential elsewhere among Canadian seniors.”

Suncor shares have climbed since the company reported fourth-quarter and year-end 2024 financial results last week. CEO Rich Kruger says Suncor is the best-positioned in Canada’s oil and gas sector to withstand a trade war involving oil with the United States.

Kruger also boasted on a conference call with analysts that Suncor has hit several internal milestones earlier than expected under his push to improve safety, cut costs, and limit downtime since becoming CEO in 2023.

“From scrappy underdog to league MVP, reflecting multi-year track record of execution and accelerated progress on major strategic targets,” Lambujon wrote of Suncor.

Owing to their respective refining and fuel marketing businesses in Canada, Suncor and Imperial have been praised by analysts covering the sector since U.S. President Donald Trump began threatening levies on imported oil and gas.

On Imperial, Lambujon notes that “[a] long history of high-calibre operational execution, fresh [substantial issuer bid] trigger potential, and a safety net from tariff risks turn us more bullish.”

Toronto-listed Canadian Natural Resources, Imperial Oil, and Suncor shares all closed between one and two per cent higher on Monday.

Dwyane Wade feels 'strong and healthy' after cancer battle
Dwyane Wade feels "strong" and "healthy" after his battle with cancer. The 43-year-old former basketball star - who is married to actress Gabrielle Union - had a cancerous tumor removed from his kidney in December 2023 and he's now explained he's "free" of the disease almost two years after his shock diagnosis. During an appearance on 'Today with Jenna and Friends', he said: "It was cancer [but] it was only Stage 1. "Thank God that we caught it early. Now I’m back. I’m strong, I’m healthy. I feel great. I’m just a little more cautious ... "[I'm taking more time to] look around and really smell the moments in life [and] appreciate it all just a little bit more. I feel like one of the lucky ones. I’m cancer free." During the interview, Dwayne explained he initially saw a doctor as a precaution because both his father and grandfather had been diagnosed with prostate cancer - and he was blindsided by the results of the tests. He said: "I just started to be like, okay, well this is probably a part of my genetics and my history, let me go get checked out. When I turned 40, I went into the doctor and I was like: ‘Listen, I want to know everything.’ And in the midst of that, I was like: ‘Here are a few things that I’ve been feeling' ... "I got a call from my doctor and in the midst of that call, you could just hear her uncertainty. They thought they saw something on my kidney. They were like: ‘Well, we don’t know if it’s cancerous, but there’s something on there'." He went on to have surgery to remove the mass and Dwayne struggled with the idea of feeling "weak" - and he didn't want his wife to see him post-op. The former sports star said: "No one has ever really experienced me being weak. "I’ve always been the strong one, the most confident one, the world champion that has lifted the trophies over his head. That’s the image, but this was a moment where I knew I was going to be uncertain and a little weak ... "Once I came out of surgery, it was a pain that I had never felt before ... [I was] most afraid of being that vulnerable [in front of my wife}. "It sounds crazy because those are supposed to be the ones you want to be there in those moments of weakness ... but you don’t want them to see you in that space." It comes after Gabrielle previously admitted her husband's cancer journey had been a "challenge". Appearing on 'The View', the 'Bring It On' actress was admitted it took her "a while" to come to terms with his diagnosis, and her mind immediately went to the "absolute worse-case". She added: "You hear cancer [and] you're paralyzed because you think of the absolute worst-case scenario. "I've had so many friends who are cancer survivors. I didn't go there; I went to 'he's gone.' " She also revealed her husband decided not to share the diagnosis with the family for some time. She explained: "He didn't tell everybody. He didn't even tell our whole family. He really wanted this to be very under the radar. He didn't tell anyone."
