EP: Bull or Bear?

Perfect Time to Buy Graphic_rating_buy EP
47%
 -70.84%
in 130 days

El Paso Corp. between $19 - $19.25 is a perfect time to buy.  This stock's chart has corrected over the past few weeks, but IMO I believe its simply b/c of the oil price sell-off.  As with most oil or natural gas stock, the price direction is directly affected by the price of oil.  Buy this now and hang on for 6 months or more and you will easily see a 25% - 30% increase due to the increase in U.S. drilling and natural gas production.  $19 is a total bargain for this stock.

I'm bullish on EP, but my only bearish sentiment would be the amount of debt they have.  They have no problem p

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Nat gas stocks outshine integrateds Graphic_rating_buy EP

in 158 days

Filed under: Exxon Mobil (XOM), Market matters, JPMorgan Chase (JPM), BP p.l.c. ADS (BP), Anadarko Petroleum (APC), Oil, Lehman Br Holdings (LEH), Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks

TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says these stocks rise because they're doubly blessed. Integrateds fall because they aren't.

So many people have been puzzled why the major integrateds have not moved with the last $30 rally in oil's spot price. The answer?

They can't take advantage of it.

They either didn't believe, and therefore didn't drill, or they have been so in the crosshairs of sovereign lunacy that t...

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Oil's rise is fueling the wind plays Graphic_rating_buy EP
+2.93%
in 27 days
(closed on 06/17/08)

Filed under: Market matters, Anadarko Petroleum (APC), Oil, Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks

TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says as crude goes higher, it makes more and more sense to go for other energy options.

Every day that oil goes up, there is a new set of technologies that had formerly been priced out of the market that comes back to life. Let's take wind. Wind, in itself, just seems so stupid. It needs, well, wind. Much of our country doesn't have enough wind to make this economic. There are only certain regions that can really benefit.

But when oil is at $130, SO WHAT! The par...

Filed under: Commodities, Stocks to Buy

Readers of this space know that the investment bias is toward large-cap companies with demonstrated business models and who have a competitive advantage in established markets, preferably with a favorable global trend as a support. And with the above in mind, El Paso Corp. is worth a review.

El Paso Corp. (NYSE: EP) operates the largest natural gas transportation system in the United States, with a host of attractive, lateral business lines including natural gas production, gas storage, power generation, and trading.

El Paso is in a sweet spot, of sort

TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says natural gas producers are having a great year, and Anadarko may be the best of the bunch.

Marcellus Shale. Ghana. Brazil. Wherever the oil and gas is. Wherever the chances to boost output.

That's Anadarko (NYSE: APC) (Cramer's Take).

Fifteen percent growth or higher for many years. That's Anadarko.

Creating value for shareholders. That's Anadarko.

IPO of Western Gas. That'...

(closed on 05/10/07)

El Paso Corp. owns North America's largest natural gas pipeline system.  Additionally, they are among one of the largest producers of natural gas and are expanding offices in the Middle East and North Africa.  With the stability of energy stocks gorwing long-term and the summer driving months approaching, I recommend buying this affordable stock now.  EP also pays dividends.
