    By Marshall Hargrave - May 31, 2013 | Tickers: AMT, EOG, IVZ, ALL, DIS

    Billionaire Ken Griffin started trading stock options back in 1986 from his Harvard dorm room. During his sophomore year, he launched a convertible-bond arbitrage fund and soon started Citadel Investment Group, which is now one of the largest funds in the world. Citadel's strategy lies in bottom-up company analysis. Outlined below are Griffin and his hedge fund's top five stocks going into the second quarter; let's check more »

  • Billionaire Ken Griffin’s Citadel Has Been Buying These Stocks

    By Meena Krishnamsetty - May 24, 2013 | Tickers: EOG, MCD, PG, DIS

    We track quarterly 13F filings from hundreds of hedge funds and other notable investors as part of our work researching investment strategies (we have found, for example, that the most popular small cap stocks among hedge funds outperform the S&P 500 by an average of 18 percentage points per year). We also like to take a brief look at what a number of top managers including billionaire Ken Griffin more »

  • Best Places to Play Eagle Ford

    By Dana Blankenhorn - May 17, 2013 | Tickers: COG, CHK, EOG | Editor's Choice

    On a recent trip to South Texas the recent impact of the Eagle Ford shale oil play was obvious on every road.

    Brand-new pick-ups and SUVs, many with dealer tags, filled the roads, darting in and out of traffic, their drivers seemingly heedless of the risk of a wreck. It's something you tend to see in an economic boom, this crazy driving of new Detroit iron, and it's more »

  • Range Resources: An Investment in American Energy Independence

    By James Fantaci - May 15, 2013 | Tickers: CLNE, EOG, RRC, WPRT

    The advent of the shale gas revolution is the culmination of advances in the methodology used to detect abundant reserves of Natural Gas and technological leaps in the means to extract it, principally through Horizontal Drilling and Hydraulic Fracturing. When it comes to investing in exploration and production companies, especially those that focus on Natural Gas, investors should pay attention to the cost and yield per well, as well as more »

  • Marathon Oil at 52 Week High, Perfect Time to Exit

    By Shas Dey - May 13, 2013 | Tickers: CHK, EOG, MRO

    You will not get a better chance to exit Marathon Oil (NYSE: MRO) than by selling while it is trading at/near its 52 week high and the business performance is also not supporting that price.

    The company's North American E&P business is not doing well and neither is its Oil Sands Mining business. Exploration costs have massively increased; huge capital expenditure has been incurred with no immediate more »

  • Fracking Just Keeps on Growing: The Three Forks Edition

    By Joshua Bondy - May 6, 2013 | Tickers: CLR, EOG, XOM, KOG

    The United States Geological Survey recently reviewed earlier studies of the Bakken and Three Forks formations. Three Forks is below the Bakken formation and continued improvements in fracking are opening up these harder to reach areas. The latest government findings have a mean estimated resource of 7.4 billion barrels (BBO) of undiscovered and technically recoverable oil; a serious boost from the earlier 2008 estimate of 3.65 BBO.

  • Is Natural Gas a Flaming Buy? Five Cheap Natural Gas Producers to Watch

    By Brendan O'Boyle - April 22, 2013 | Tickers: APA, CHK, CEO, COP, ECA, EOG

    It is probably fair to say that the boom in natural gas has been one of the most unprofitable revolutions in recent memory for investors in natural gas producing companies. Even the legendary Warren Buffett admitted that he overpaid for ConocoPhillips during the heady days leading up to the credit crisis in 2008. This lesson should not be lost on other investors: when energy prices are high, companies that derive more »

  • Value to Be Had in Mid-Major Oil & Gas

    By Marshall Hargrave - April 17, 2013 | Tickers: APC, EOG, NBL

    After taking a look at some of the best valued natural gas companies, it's time to take a look at how some of the top mid-major oil and gas companies might perform in 2013. S&P expects high oil production to stay the norm, with S&P recording a 21% production increase in 2012, projected to grow 18% in 2013. 

    Meanwhile, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates more »

  • Insiders Are Bullish About This Energy Company

    By Meena Krishnamsetty - March 29, 2013 | Tickers: CLR, EOG, KOG, NOG, WLL

    Continental Resources (NYSE: CLR), one of the leading shale oil producers with a strong position in North Dakota’s Bakken Shale, has been in the news recently as company founder and CEO, Harold Hamm’s wife has filed for divorce. The stock price fell on reports that she could receive, and then presumably sell, a large amount of stock, possibly even threatening Hamm’s majority ownership of the $16 billion more »

  • Hedge Fund Mount Kellett Boosts its Stake in This Energy Stock

    By Meena Krishnamsetty - March 27, 2013 | Tickers: APA, CHK, DVN, EOG, SD

    At the beginning of January, SandRidge Energy (NYSE: SD), a $2.6 billion market cap exploration and production company which primarily produces natural gas, was one of the largest holdings by market value in Mount Kellett Capital Management’s portfolio. An activist battle has been brewing at SandRidge.

    On the one hand, investors such as Mount Kellett and TPG-Axon Capital Management have been trying to remove unpopular CEO Tom Ward more »

  • What’s Moving these S&P 500 Movers?

    By Brian Nichols - March 26, 2013 | Tickers: AVP, EOG, GME, MON, NFLX

    On a day when the S&P 500 inched ever-so-closer to its all-time highs with gains of 0.78%, there were few stocks that separated themselves from the pack. These were market leading performers, and therefore I am looking at those movers, determining why they moved, and if any are presenting upside.

  • To Market, To Market, To Fetch a Fat Spread

    By Peter Horn - March 13, 2013 | Tickers: BRK-A, EOG, HES, GBX

    Unconventional oil shales have provided critical revenue for the large US independents at a time when weak gas pricing might otherwise be disastrous. Getting that oil to market however, is a challenge. Bakken production is log jammed because of a lack of pipeline infrastructure. Similar issues have hamstrung western Canadian syncrude producers. Rail shipping has been critical to getting this off-the-beaten-trail production to market and its contribution is still expanding more »

  • Billionaire T. Boone Pickens' Energy Moves

    By Marshall Hargrave - March 11, 2013 | Tickers: EOG, MRO, OXY, RRC, WLL

    Billionaire investor and oilman-turned-hedge fund manager T. Boone Pickens runs an energy-concentrated hedge fund, BP Capital. His fund is generally invested 90% in energy-related stocks and 10% in commodities. With energy a hot-button topic, I thought it only worthwhile to take a look at how one of the top energy investors and his hedge fund are investing for 2013 (see all of Pickens' picks).

  • Could Condensate Pricing in the Eagle Ford Slip?

    By Peter Horn - March 11, 2013 | Tickers: CHK, DVN, EOG

    EOG Resource’s (NYSE: EOG) latest slide deck has an interesting scrap of information. Its significance was highlighted by a late question buried at the end of its quarterly conference call. Mark Papa revealed that EOG is seeing signs of weakness in Eagle Ford condensate pricing. If condensate prices weaken significantly, the impact on Eagle Ford producers could be significant, providing double trouble in this period of weak natural gas more »

  • Be Cautious on the Fracking Boom

    By Bob Chandler - March 8, 2013 | Tickers: CLR, EOG, RRC

    The oil & gas industry has a tendency to go into mini-booms. Often things look very promising and money enthusiastically flows into the space. Unfortunately, in many cases, things don't quite meet expectations and investors suffer. The latest mini-boom in the industry seems to center around "fracking." This extraction technique has certainly increased the accessible amount of U.S. oil and gas, but one might be wary in assuming that more »
