Brigham Exploration Company (BEXP)

CAPS Rating:
*****

An independent exploration, development and production company, which utilizes 3-D seismic imaging and other advanced technologies to systematically explore for and develop domestic onshore oil and natural gas reserves.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Oil related stocks will be dying soon because of the high prices and alternate energy growth. The P/E is also too high and when the Democrats take over there will be less exploration for oil based on what they have been preaching for so many years.

With oil prices at an alltime high...Brigham's stock will soar as they try and explore for more oil "pockets."

North Dakota, Montana (and Louisiana) are hotbeds of drilling activity and discovery. Since BEXP is about 70% natural gas production, if prices stay up and catch up with oil prices, their new finds will be very profitable.
