Welcome to episode 53 of The 5-Minute Investor Podcast, where Stockhouse columnists Jonathon Brown and me, Trevor Abes, each deliver a 2.5-minute profile on stocks related to recent news stories with investment implications. This week, we’re highlighting oil and gas stocks operating in safe jurisdictions that make a strong case for weathering ongoing market volatility prompted by the US and Israel’s invasion of Iran, as well as the latter’s closing off of the Strait of Hormuz and subsequent attacks across the Gulf Region.
Here are Jon’s show notes for episode 53:
- A deep‑value oil and gas candidate safe from Middle East drama worth a closer look.
- Jon’s stock is Canadian Natural Resources (TSX:CNQ), a major oil and gas production company operating in Canada, Africa and the United Kingdom.
- At the time of writing, Canadian Natural Resources stock last traded at C$67.39 and has added 52.88 per cent year-over-year.
Here are Trevor’s show notes:
