Make A Killing When Natural Gas Prices Rebound

There’s a big question weighing on the minds of energy investors these
days…
When are Natural Gas prices going to rebound?
Well, Nat. gas has been in the dumpster for a while now. A fact most
energy investors are very aware of. Activity in this commodity has been
a little dull for most of 2010.
But it hasn’t always been this way…
It wasn’t long ago that Nat. gas was in a raging bull market. In 2005,
prices exploded to over $15 per MMBtu. Supply worries at the time sent
prices on a tear.
Nat. gas surged again in early 2008 as energy prices across the board
skyrocketed.
But of course, the near unraveling of the financial system in late 2008
was enough to crater Nat. gas (along with most everything else). At one
point in mid 2009, it was trading just under $3.00… a 7-year low.
And this brings us to today, as prices are hovering around $4.00.
Yes, we’ve seen a few nice rallies in the past year. But for the most
part, Nat. gas is hanging around those 2009 lows.
This commodity can’t seem to get going… and for good reason.

Where Can You Turn $300 Into $1.3 Million Right Now?
Our own small-company specialist, Robert Morris, has found a
way to 'sniff out' tiny penny stocks on the verge of a major breakout. And
the timing for this has never been better.
You see, the system takes advantage of an obscure SEC regulation that
sends penny stock prices through the roof.
We've seen some stocks gain 852%... 5,450%... even 17,496% in no time
flat.

The current fundamentals aren’t supporting a big move higher. New
drilling techniques are bringing large amounts of Nat. gas to market. In
fact, recent working gas in storage is 3,164 billion cubic feet (Bcf). This is 166 Bcf above the 5-year average for this time of year.
Nat. gas inventories are expected to be within 3% of the record highs of
2009 at the end of this injection season. Abundant gas supplies are
keeping a firm cap on prices.
But you have to keep a close eye on Nat. gas, and here’s why…
There are a handful of catalysts with the potential to turn the market
higher.
The first is a change in U.S energy policy. The “NAT GAS Act” (H.R.
1835) would open up a whole new world for natural gas demand. If it
passes, you can expect natural gas stocks (along with gas prices) to do
a 180-degree turn and rocket higher.
But if for some moronic reason the NAT GAS Act doesn’t pass…
Low Nat. gas prices will eventually take care of itself. Extended
periods of low prices will eventually strain producers. Lower rig counts
lead to lower production. And lower production leads to lower supplies,
lower supplies lead to… you get the picture.
Eventually gas prices are going to rise. After all, “the best cure for
low prices is low prices.”
How can you take advantage of this eventual (but certain) rally?
Look for the lowest cost producers of Nat. gas. The average production
cost in the industry was $5.74 per Mcfe in the first quarter of 2010. Find a Nat. gas producer with substantially lower costs and you’re on
the right track.
These companies will get the best results when Nat. gas finally rallies.
They’re also the ones who will survive the longest if prices stay low.
One such company is Southwestern Energy (SWN). They have a production
cost of around $2.76 per Mcfe. And it just so happens, SWN is showing an
attractive entry point right now.
Take a look…

Here’s a
weekly chart of Southwestern Energy. Notice how SWN is
trading at the 200-week moving average (the green circle). This moving
average may provide some price support in the short term.
In the long term, SWN has great upside potential when the Nat. gas
market rebounds.
The bottom line is this…
Natural gas prices are low right now. But they aren’t going to stay this
way forever. It’s a good idea to be looking for good Nat. gas
investments
right now. When gas prices rise due to fundamental shifts in
the market, you’ll be glad you invested at lower prices.
Will it require a bit of patience? You bet.
But with the huge potential for Nat. gas, your patience may be rewarded
in spades!
• Silver (Over $20 an ounce)
Silver is roaring higher as investment demand picks up. The 2008 highs
of $21.00 are dead ahead and will be a strong resistance area. Expect to
see some selling at this level. However, use the weakness as a buying
opportunity. We see silver prices heading much higher in coming months.
