The turmoil in oil markets amid the Middle East conflict, years of underinvestment, and the removal of roughly 600–700 million barrels from global inventories has left Suncor Energy Inc New (NYSE:SU) in a strong position. Why? Because it operates one of the most reliable oil sands businesses, with proven reserves that can sustain production for more than 25 years at current levels. Its output is expected to grow steadily, unlike many global peers facing declining reserves. Suncor Energy Inc New (NYSE:SU) is also financially solid.

It delivered over $5.8 billion to shareholders in 2025 through dividends and buybacks, and plans to continue repurchases at about $275 million per month.
