natural gas stock

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has reverberated throughout the global economy.

International sanctions against Russia have thrown European and other oil and gas markets into disarray.

It’s led to a surge in natural gas demand as countries seek alternative sources for their energy needs.

Using Chief Investment Strategist Adam O’Dell’s proprietary six-factor Stock Power Ratings system, I found a “Strong Bullish” natural gas stock:

Let’s see why this natural gas stock is on track to keep its strong performance throughout 2022 and beyond.

Argentina Needs Natural Gas

Natural gas is a big source of electricity around the world.

This, coupled with shutting off supply from Russia — one of the largest natural gas providers in the world — has led to an increase in demand.

One country that would be in tough spot without this resource is Argentina:

The chart above shows how Argentina generates its energy.

In 2021, natural gas accounted for 63% of all electricity generated in the country.

Bottom line: Argentina, like many European countries, needs natural gas.
