APA: Bull or Bear?
Mariner Energy Acquisition Could Help Apache Break Out
APA
-21.44%
in
769 days
Filed under: Stocks to Buy  Apache Corporation (APA) announced last week that it plans to acquire Mariner Energy Inc. (ME) in a $4 billion transaction. Typically when we see one company announce that it is going to acquire another company, the stock price of the company doing the acquiring goes down in the short term. But in the long term, this acquisition may help Apache's stock price break out.
Apache has been stuck in a consolidation range for a few months now. The stock price keeps bouncing back and forth between a slightly down-trending resistance level and an up-trending support level.<><>Co...

Filed under: AT and T (T), Bank of America (BAC), Technical Analysis, Stocks to Buy  When selecting which stocks to buy, ratings from agencies like Standard & Poor's can be useful in creating a balanced portfolio.
But did you know technical analysis is the most accurate way to predict where a stock -- or the market for that matter -- is going? <>Technical analysis is more of an art than a science, but when used correctly it can boost your profits to new heights. I took a look at stocks that S&P has a four- or five-star rating on and analyzed their charts to come up with six great technical trades...

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Nat gas stocks outshine integrateds
APA
-39.01%
in
408 days
(closed on 07/31/09)
Filed under: Exxon Mobil (XOM), Market matters, JPMorgan Chase (JPM), BP p.l.c. ADS (BP), Anadarko Petroleum (APC), Oil, Lehman Br Holdings (LEH), Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks  TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says these stocks rise because they're doubly blessed. Integrateds fall because they aren't.
So many people have been puzzled why the major integrateds have not moved with the last $30 rally in oil's spot price. The answer?
They can't take advantage of it.
They either didn't believe, and therefore didn't drill, or they have been so in the crosshairs of sovereign lunacy that t...

Oil Will Peak at $150-200 - Barron's Interview
APA
-39.00%
in
1448 days
Barron's magazine interviews highly-followed Goldman oil strategist Arjun Murti, who predicted the current oil "super spike" in 2004. He sees the climb peaking somewhere between $150 and $200 -- which could mean $5.75 gasoline.<!----> Murti dismisses the notion that speculation is driving oil prices to record highs. If so, he counters, why aren't we seeing supply growth?

I bought 100 shares of APA at $133.34.
Setup: Trend Pullback. The stock has pulled back to the 50 day moving average, where it found support the last two times it reached this level. Stochastics are oversold and OBV remains stong.
Risk: My intial target is the recent high at $150. I would likely take partial profits, move my stop up to my buy price, and hold the rest into new highs. My stop

Cramer on BloggingStocks: Oil's rise is fueling the wind plays
APA
-6.43%
in
27 days
(closed on 06/17/08)
Filed under: Market matters, Anadarko Petroleum (APC), Oil, Stocks to Buy, Cramer on BloggingStocks TheStreet.com's Jim Cramer says as crude goes higher, it makes more and more sense to go for other energy options.
Every day that oil goes up, there is a new set of technologies that had formerly been priced out of the market that comes back to life. Let's take wind. Wind, in itself, just seems so stupid. It needs, well, wind. Much of our country doesn't have enough wind to make this economic. There are only certain regions that can really benefit.
But when oil is at $130, SO WHAT! The par...

About Apache Corp

"There will be short term anomalies in oil prices; but long term, the world's appetite will increase as supply decreases," says resources expert 
The U.S. dollar continues to show weakness, and oil will likely continue to be a good hedge against its further deterioration.
