The TFN Complete Guide to Natural Gas Stocks
Today's Financial News - Posted July 8, 2009
This could be your last chance to take advantage of the ultra-low share prices of stocks related to natural gas — before the market straps on its spurs and kicks America’s most important fossil fuel into a full-out gallop.
by The TFN Editorial Team, TodaysFinancialNews.com Baltimore (TFN):
As I write, there are just 840 or so drills currently turning in search of natural gas. This time last year, that figure was well over 1,500 drills. With the economic slowdown knocking the bottom out of industrial demand, gas producers have shied away from the market.
As natural gas prices plunged from over $14 per MMBtu to current levels closing in on $3.42, profit margins were slashed and share prices of the companies pulling the fuel from the ground plummeted.
But now there are signs of a quickening global recovery. Oil demand is soaring and drilling activity has recently increased by 5%. Natural gas is soon to follow. Rig counts are already on the rise.
We are deadly serious about the impending bullish run for the world’s natural gas drillers. If you missed out on the last incredibly profitable run of the “cycle,” this is your chance to make up for what you lost.
Supplies are declining and demand is increasing. There is only one way for prices to go… up and then up some more. To prove how serious we are, we recently invested more hours than I care to admit to uncover and research every publicly traded company we could find that has the potential to profit from the coming surge.
In the weeks and months ahead, many of the firms in the report that follows will be making headlines and their investors will be boasting of double- and triple-digit gains. As the natural gas industry begins its run, you will quickly see why this may be the most valuable report you read this year.
Below is the list.
It includes site developers, producers, transporters, processors and marketers and is listed in order of share price as of 09/18/2009.
Please note: We have only included stocks on listed on U.S. exchanges and trading for over $0.50 per share.
