However, it is important to note that the EVA is still negative, meaning CNQ is still not adding value to its shareholders and this is due to the company’s high cost for raising capital. Although that difference is decreasing (due to a greater increase in profits than an increase in capital costs), it is not yet eliminated, hence why CNQ is still risky (given by the 51% risk score seen on the Scorecard) and signals an overall neutral outlook.[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][image_with_animation image_url=”32658″ alignment=”center” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][nectar_image_with_hotspots image=”32660″ preview=”https://www.inovestor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/spscore.png” color_1=”Accent-Color” hotspot_icon=”plus_sign” tooltip=”hover” tooltip_shadow=”none”][nectar_hotspot left=”23.3608%” top=”9.38666%” position=”top”]Fundamental outlook is neutral even though performance score is high because the risk score is also high[/nectar_hotspot][nectar_hotspot left=”69.4196%” top=”53.3582%” position=”top”]Risk score is 51%[/nectar_hotspot][/nectar_image_with_hotspots][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][image_with_animation image_url=”32656″ alignment=”center” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]On the other hand, for a more sustainable investment pick – lets look at Parex Resources (PXT). Apart from the reasons mentioned on the Globe and Mail article, PXT has an attractive scorecard. First, the positive outlook signal! This signal is due to the high score of 65% made up from a high-performance score and a low risk score. The stock rose by 7.24% as seen in the screener however it is still undervalued (this is given by the FGV and the P/IV graphs)[/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][image_with_animation image_url=”32683″ alignment=”center” animation=”Fade In” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][nectar_image_with_hotspots image=”32681″ preview=”https://www.inovestor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Price-Intrinsic-Value.png” color_1=”Accent-Color” hotspot_icon=”plus_sign” tooltip=”hover” tooltip_shadow=”none”][nectar_hotspot left=”82.8633%” top=”25.1799%” position=”top”]Intrinsic Value crosses the price line indicating an undervalued stock[/nectar_hotspot][/nectar_image_with_hotspots][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/1″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][nectar_image_with_hotspots image=”32679″ preview=”https://www.inovestor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/FGV.png” color_1=”Accent-Color” hotspot_icon=”plus_sign” tooltip=”hover” tooltip_shadow=”none”][nectar_hotspot left=”94.1964%” top=”70.3297%” position=”top”]The FGV is negative indicating a discounted stock valuation.[/nectar_hotspot][/nectar_image_with_hotspots][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]
