Southern Union Company (SUG)

CAPS Rating:

The Company owns and operates assets in the regulated and unregulated natural gas industry and is primarily engaged in the gathering, processing, transportation, storage and distribution of natural gas in the United States.

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 members 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.

SUG Score Leader

Rating: 92.56
SUG Score: 14.60

I AM THE SCORE LEADER BECAUSE: I recognized when this story stopped working and closed my SUG pick. Rising interest rates could be bad news for SUG... additionally transitioning to an MLP structure may not work anymore because investors are abandoning the model.
