Today, we look at another sector the market is high on: Canadian tar sands. Our chart shows the past five years in Suncor Energy, one of the largest miners operating in Athabasca.

As one of the institutional investors’ favorite ways to take a position in Canada’s tar sands, Suncor’s stock reflects all of the environmental, political, and economic concerns of Athabasca.

Suncor’s first-quarter cash flow increased 40% from one year ago. Shares have appreciated 480% in the past five years. The bull market in the world’s safest large deposit of crude oil is on!Suncor Energy, Inc.
