Buy These Natural Gas Stocks BEFORE Exports Increase

Buy These Natural Gas Stocks BEFORE Exports Increase

Let's face it: natural gas prices are low. Very low. Despite the recent three-week rally in futures, prices remain in the gutter.

The recent rally in futures prices came on the heels of reports that domestic supplies dropped and that more than one company announced that it would curb output due to low prices. Most analysts believe the price jump is temporary and that natural gas prices will likely return to recent 10-year lows.

But price is only one part of the story. We may well be witnessing a revolution in the domestic natural gas market. And investors need to know where to look in order to profit.

The revolution is that the United States is on the precipice of becoming a net exporter of natural gas, as opposed to being the net importer we seemingly always have been.

Darling A Buy Before Earnings Reveal The Full Year Impact Of Griffin Acquisition

By Adam Muller:

I believe Darling International (DAR) is a compelling long idea for several reasons. Investors have yet to give the company full credit for their 2010 acquisition of Griffin industries. In addition, DAR’s current valuation also does not include the significant positive impact of its joint venture with Valero to construct a biodiesel facility co-located with one of Valero’s refineries.

In their most recent 10-Q filing, DAR describes itself as follows:

The Company is a leading provider of rendering, cooking oil and bakery waste recycling and recovery solutions to the nation’s food industry. The Company collects and recycles animal by-products, bakery waste and used cooking oil from poultry and meat processors, commercial bakeries, grocery stores, butcher shops, and food service establishments and provides grease trap cleaning services to many of the same establishments.

Acquisition of Griffin Industries

DAR closed on its acquisition of private rending company Griffin Industries in December 2010.
