The company offers a competitive dividend yield of 4.66%, providing investors with a steady income stream.

Canadian Natural Resources Limited operates in diverse geographic regions, including Western Canada, the United Kingdom portion of the North Sea, and Offshore Africa, reducing exposure to regional risks. The company's focus on acquiring, exploring, and developing oil and gas assets positions it well to benefit from potential future increases in commodity prices. Cons Investors should be bearish about investing in Canadian Natural Resources Limited for these reasons: Canadian Natural Resources Limited has a relatively low quick ratio of 0.54 and a current ratio of 0.88, indicating potential liquidity challenges in the short term. The company has a high debt-to-equity ratio of 29.64, which may raise concerns about its financial leverage and ability to manage debt obligations. Recent declines in the stock price, with a 200-day moving average of C$78.24, suggest a downward trend that investors should consider before making investment decisions. The oil and gas industry is subject to volatility due to factors like geopolitical events and fluctuations in global demand, posing risks to Canadian Natural Resources Limited's financial performance.
