StockReports+ is a Thomson Reuters service that helps investors pick equities by simplifying the process of evaluating stocks, finding new trading ideas, and understanding trends affecting markets and industries.

Suncor Energy Inc. will report its second-quarter financial results Wednesday at 10 p.m. (ET). The Street is expecting earnings per share of 63 cents, down from 81 cents a year earlier. But that may disguise some promising future trends for the Canadian oil sands producer.

The stock has recovered from a long downtrend that began near the start of the year and lasted into April.

West Texas Intermediate crude prices have also been on an uptrend.

This report provides a detailed analysis that investors may want to review before buying or selling the stock.

StockReports+ gives each stock an average score that combines the quantitative analysis of six widely-used investment decision-making tools: earnings, fundamentals, relative valuation, risk, price momentum and insider trading. Suncor's average score is 9 out of 10. That places it within the top 15 per cent of stocks scored.
