Apache Corp (APA)

CAPS Rating:
*****

An independent energy company that explores for, develops and produces natural gas, crude oil and natural gas liquids.

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.

An oil-n-gas sector play, this stock should be a winner for some time to come. Given the present investing climate of rising oil prices and seemingly insatiable demand for oil, I think this stock, with its very fair PEG ratio of 1.09 and an incredibly low EnterpriseValue-to-EBITDA ratio of only 6, i...More

Smart purchases of played-out holes from the "biggies" allow Apache to do what they do best .... clean up behind the biggies ! As demand for oil returns, and as price goes up, Apache's margins will expand.

Adding quality Oil/Nat Gas at these levels but this one is a fav. At a PE of 5.25 and only about 10% above the index currently it should add 20 CAPS points in the next quarter (assuming I'm right that Nat Gas will creep back up in price).

World demand for energy will continue to grow in the long term. US push for alternatives to foreign oil and greener technologies will lead to increase in demand for natural gas. Apache is well positioned to capitalize on this trend.
