Natural gas (diversified) industry
Article Abstract:
Spot prices for natural gas have declined in early 1997 after reaching a peak in Dec 1996. The higher cost of delivered gas, lower prices for competing fuels, and the winding down of the heating season are expected to weaken prices further. Competition among gas companies will increase with deregulation, and consolidation is accelerating in 1997. Several of these stocks are timely in 1997, although the industry as a whole is average.

Natural gas (diversified) industry
Article Abstract:
The demand for natural gas, especially from electric utilities, is mixed in 1995, and supply remains high, keeping prices weak. There is strong demand for natural gas liquids, and this is expected to continue through the 1990s. Natural gas stocks have underperformed the market in 1995, and this will continue through 1996. Several stocks are timely, however, and are highly rated for income and safety.
