CAPS Rating:
*****

An independent energy company focused on natural gas. Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, the Company is engaged in natural gas and oil exploration and production, natural gas gathering, transmission and marketing, and natural gas distribution.

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.

Power? Everyone needs power! It's the new nutrient needed to live a long prosperous life of happiness and well being. I like electricity it makes me tingle when I touch it.

Southwestern Energy has increased their EPS only 2.5% over the last year in spite of rising oil prices. I'm still waiting for SWN to start paying dividends like most of the other companies in their industry, and until they do I don't find them to be an attractive investment.

Ah natural gas. This stock should be doing well considering they want 40K to run a pipeline less than a quarter of a mile.
