Compton Petroleum Corp (USA) (CMZ)

CAPS Rating:
*****

The Company is engaged in the exploration, development, exploitation, acquisition and production of natural gas, natural gas liquids and crude oil.

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.

With oil riding a wave of profit, natural gas looks to be a viable alternative for most Americans, as well as the emerging commerce sectors worldwide. I see natural gas making a big upswing in the next two to four years.

Oil and gas producers are going to perform well, no matter who wins the U.S. election. This company has been flying below the radar with both a low P/E and price to cash ratio. It is in the process of selling off all of it's assets that don't relate to natural gas. Natural gas is going to continue it's strong bull run and this will be a good company to invest in to take advantage of that.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
