Natural gas is a tight market with sharp decline profiles on individual wells (just look at the way north sea wells have behaved). North america has foolishly decided to make itself overly dependent on Nat Gas for electricity and heat which make for winter and summer spikes. Liquid NatGas capacity will be minuscule for years to come.

ENCANA an energy (oil and gas) company. The price of oil is way up compared to 5 years ago, and it is going to stay up. But the costs of running this business will remain relatively stable. So profits are going to be great.

Encana is a well run company, widely held and large volume of trades. This is going to attract investors large and small. Half the market still thinks oil prices might drop down to $50, but that is just not going to happen. When investors wake up to the fact that the base price of oil is $60, and is going to keep climbing, then Encana along with other energy companies are going to make big profits and their stock prices will rise. I expect this even if the USA economy goes sour and the market in general goes down, energy stocks are going to be strong. This is because China, India, and other developing economies are becoming big energy consumers. It won't matter any more how much demand comes from USA, because global demand is going up, and USA will be a smaller piece of the energy pie.

Encana should prove to be an interesting pick for the next few years. The industry-leading western Canadian oil company has serious potential to be a major market player, due to the instability of the Middle-eastern oil production. Natural gas and crude oil sales are expected to rise within the next few years, and ECA should be a major player in those sales.

An E&P company battered by the recent downturn in commodity prices. As winter approaches, sentiment should turn, natural gas prices should strengthen, and ECA should make a recovery.

Another energy pick with a focus on nat gas. Contrarian play here with a hidden oil sands asset that the market never notices.

Demand for oil is increasing in emerging markets. Encana has big plots of oil sands.
